About Ajman Media City
Why Ajman Media City
Ajman Media City combines specialised media licences with the flexibility to add activities and visas later, which is why it suits both first-time business owners and established groups. 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. GoldenKey has Indian clients from Mumbai, Delhi and Bengaluru, and our consultants understand the documents issued in India and how to attest them for the UAE. Just as important, payments between India and the UAE are routine: the dirham is pegged to the dollar, Indian rupee (INR) transfers settle quickly and UAE banks are familiar with Indian business profiles.
Permitted activities include social media management and influencer marketing. The authority permits Free Zone Establishment (FZE) and Free Zone Company (FZCO), which covers solo company owners, partnerships and overseas groups opening a UAE branch. GoldenKey has prepared Ajman Media City files for Indian clients in trading, IT and software, retail and construction, which means we know which India papers need attestation and which can be submitted as plain copies.
