WhatsApp quoteFrom day one, founders choose JAFZA when they want a credible UAE address, fast licensing and packages that scale from a solo flexi-desk to a multi-visa office. JAFZA combines world's largest port-adjacent free zone with the flexibility to add activities and visas later, which is why it suits both first-time founders and established groups. Danish shipping and logistics groups are major operators at Jebel Ali and across the Gulf, which gives Danish entrepreneurs a ready market and supply chain the moment their JAFZA licence is issued. Danes are a design-led community active in logistics, pharmaceuticals and renewable energy, so the JAFZA authority, the banks and the immigration officers see Danish applications every day and process them without hesitation.

Frequently asked questions
How long does the JAFZA licence take?
Once your documents are complete, the authority usually issues the licence within 10 business days. Visas and bank account opening follow afterwards.
How many visas can I get with a JAFZA licence?
Importantly, visa quota is tied to the package and office you choose. JAFZA packages typically start from a zero-visa option and scale to five or more visas with a physical office, and additional visas can be added later for the per-visa fee shown in our pricing.
Do I need to visit the UAE to set up in JAFZA?
Crucially, most JAFZA licences can be issued remotely with scanned documents and a signed power of attorney. You will need to enter the UAE for the medical test and Emirates ID biometrics when your residence visa is processed.
Can a Danish citizen own 100% of a company in JAFZA?
Yes — Danes can own the full share capital of a JAFZA company with no local partner, exactly like any other nationality.
How long does the process take for Danish applicants?
For most clients, processing for Danes follows the same timeline as other nationalities. Documents from Denmark that need attestation are the main variable, and GoldenKey guides you through that step.
