About Ajman Free Zone
Why Ajman Free Zone
For most clients, founders choose Ajman Free Zone when they want a credible UAE address, fast licensing and packages that scale from a solo flexi-desk to a multi-visa office. Ajman Free Zone is one of the UAE's most affordable free zones — 0-visa packages from AED 5,500, and it has become one of the most practical choices for founders who want a UAE licence without a large upfront budget. Payments between Estonia and the UAE are routine: the dirham is pegged to the dollar, euro (EUR) transfers settle quickly and UAE banks are familiar with Estonian business profiles. GoldenKey has Estonian clients from Tallinn and Tartu, and our consultants understand the documents issued in Estonia and how to attest them for the UAE.
In practice, over 9,000 active companies from 160+ nationalities. 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. Many Estonian business owners run Ajman Free Zone companies alongside an existing business in Estonia, using the UAE entity for international invoicing and regional sales.
