View all FAQsDo I need to visit the UAE to set up in Ajman Free Zone?
Just as important, most Ajman Free Zone licences can be granted remotely with scanned supporting documents and a signed power of attorney. You will need to enter the UAE for the medical test and Emirates ID biometrics when your residence visa is processed.
How long does the Ajman Free Zone licence take?
Once your documents are complete, the registrar in most cases issues the licence within 3 working days. Visas and bank account opening follow afterwards.
Is an audit required for a Ajman Free Zone company?
Put simply, requirements vary by zone and by company size. GoldenKey will confirm the current Ajman Free Zone rule when we prepare your quotation, and we provide bookkeeping if you need accounts in any case for corporate tax.
Is there a double taxation agreement between Croatia and the UAE?
Yes. The UAE and Croatia have a double taxation agreement, and a UAE tax residency certificate lets you claim treaty relief on qualifying income. GoldenKey can obtain the certificate once your company is established.

Yes. Croatians can own the full share capital of a Ajman Free Zone company with no local partner, exactly like any other nationality.
