Training centres, tutoring, corporate training, e-learning and vocational institutes

An IFZA Free Zone company can be owned entirely by foreign nationals, needs no local sponsor and can start trading internationally as soon as the licence is issued. In practice, setting up a company in IFZA Free Zone gives you 100% ownership, a UAE trade licence and the option to sponsor residence visas for yourself and your family. GoldenKey has licensed training institute businesses for clients in IFZA Free Zone and knows which sub-activities to list so you are not asked to amend the licence later. For most clients, training institutes delivering certificates need KHDA (Dubai), ADEK (Abu Dhabi) or the relevant emirate's education authority approval. Online training and coaching businesses can usually operate on a standard professional licence.
