About Ajman Media City
Why Ajman Media City
An Ajman Media City company can be owned entirely by foreign nationals, needs no local sponsor and can start trading internationally as soon as the licence is granted. Ajman Media City issues commercial, professional and industrial licences from its base in Ajman, and GoldenKey processes new registrations there every week. Put simply, founders choose Ajman Media City when they want a credible UAE address, fast licensing and packages that scale from a solo flexi-desk to a multi-visa office.
On the ground, one of the reasons we suggest Ajman Media City is its specialised media licences, which matters more than most founders realise once the business is running. From day one, the authority permits Free Zone Establishment (FZE) and Free Zone Company (FZCO), which covers solo founders, partnerships and overseas groups opening a UAE branch. Popular activities in Ajman Media City include media production, digital marketing, broadcasting, publishing and advertising, and most of them can be combined on a single licence.
