Frequently asked questions

Is an audit required for a Ajman Media City company?

Requirements vary by zone and by company size. GoldenKey will confirm the current Ajman Media City rule when we prepare your quotation, and we provide bookkeeping if you need accounts in any case for corporate tax.

An FZE has one shareholder and an FZCO has two or more. Both offer limited liability and 100% foreign ownership, and the fees in Ajman Media City are for most applicants the same.

Day to day, once your documents are complete, the licensing authority typically issues the licence within 3 working days. Visas and bank account opening follow afterwards.
