About ANC Free Zone
Why Ajman New Venture Centre
In practice, setting up a company in Ajman New Venture Centre gives you 100% ownership, a UAE trade licence and the option to sponsor residence visas for yourself and your family. An Ajman New Venture Centre company can be owned entirely by foreign nationals, needs no local sponsor and can start trading internationally as soon as the licence is issued. Icelandic seafood and clean-energy know-how reach the Gulf through Dubai, which gives Icelandic entrepreneurs a ready market and supply chain the moment their Ajman New Venture Centre licence is issued. For Icelandic business owners, the UAE is around 9 to 10 hours with one stop from Reykjavík, the UAE is 4 hours ahead of Iceland, and English is used for all UAE business.
On the ground, one of the reasons we recommend Ajman New Venture Centre is its very low-cost licence packages, which matters more than most founders realise once the business is running. The authority permits Free Zone Establishment (FZE), which covers solo company owners, partnerships and overseas groups opening a UAE branch. Many Icelandic founders run Ajman New Venture Centre companies alongside an existing business in Iceland, using the UAE entity for international invoicing and regional sales.
