If you are weighing up where to register in the UAE, IFZA Free Zone deserves a close look for its Dubai address and straightforward renewal process.

For most clients, the most common businesses Romanians open through GoldenKey are in IT and software, hospitality, construction and aviation, although IFZA Free Zone supports almost any activity.

Why IFZA Free Zone

GoldenKey has prepared IFZA Free Zone files for Romanian clients in IT and software, hospitality, construction and aviation, which means we know which Romania documents need attestation and which can be submitted as plain copies.
