Ajman Free Zone Documents Checklist

Why Ajman Free Zone

Just as important, one of the reasons we recommend Ajman Free Zone is its among the most affordable in the UAE, which matters more than most founders realise once the business is running. On the ground, unlike some zones, Ajman Free Zone does not require a large paid-up capital to be blocked in a bank account before the licence is issued. Importantly, the authority permits Free Zone Establishment (FZE), Free Zone Company (FZCO) and Branch of Foreign Company, which covers solo founders, partnerships and overseas groups opening a UAE branch.

Format and attestation

Ajman Free Zone accepts clear colour scans for most supporting documents, but educational certificates for professional activities and any corporate shareholder documents must be attested in the home country and by the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs. GoldenKey tells you which of your documents need attestation before you send anything.

Corporate shareholders

If a company rather than a person will own the Ajman Free Zone entity, the issuing authority needs the parent's certificate of incorporation, memorandum, a board resolution approving the UAE company and a certificate of good standing, all attested. We provide templates for the resolution.

Why the UAE

The UAE charges no personal income tax, and corporate tax applies at 9% only on profits above AED 375,000, with a 0% rate available for qualifying free zone income. Residence visas for owners and families come with the company, which makes preparing documents for Ajman Free Zone a route to relocation as well as a business decision.
