WhatsApp quoteIf you are weighing up where to register in the UAE, RAKEZ deserves a close look for its competitive pricing and straightforward renewal process. A RAKEZ company can be owned entirely by foreign nationals, needs no local sponsor and can start trading internationally as soon as the licence is granted. RAKEZ issues commercial, professional and industrial licences from its base in Ras Al Khaimah, and GoldenKey processes new registrations there every week.
Why RAKEZ
Put simply, home to American University of Ras Al Khaimah. Office options in RAKEZ range from flexi-desk, office suite, warehouse, industrial unit or land lease, so you only pay for the space your visa quota actually needs. Unlike some zones, RAKEZ does not require a large paid-up capital to be blocked in a bank account before the licence is issued.
Documents required
Gather these documents and GoldenKey will take care of the rest of a 2-visa licence in RAKEZ.

Who the Team – 2 Visas package suits
The 2-visa package in RAKEZ includes an establishment card and the quota to sponsor 2 residence visas — usually the owner and 1 partner or staff member. Each visa is processed by GoldenKey for the per-visa fee shown above and remains valid for two years. If you later need more visas than the quota, we upgrade the office option rather than starting a new licence.
Why the UAE
To be clear, the UAE sits within an eight-hour flight of two-thirds of the world's population, so so many founders choose it as a base for a 2-visa licence in RAKEZ. Since 2021, most mainland activities have allowed 100% foreign ownership, and free zones have always offered it, so a 2-visa licence in RAKEZ no longer requires a local partner.
Why GoldenKey
On the ground, most of our RAKEZ customers come to us through referrals from other founders, which is why we take pride in keeping every promise we put in writing. We speak the languages our clients speak, including English, Arabic, Hindi, Urdu and Malayalam, and we can arrange Russian, French and Mandarin support for a 2-visa licence in RAKEZ. Importantly, our office is a short drive from the Ajman Free Zone, Ajman DED and the immigration centre, so physical submissions for a 2-visa licence in RAKEZ happen the same day they are ready.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to visit the UAE to set up in RAKEZ?
As we tell every client, most RAKEZ licences can be issued remotely with scanned supporting 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 completed.
Can I add more activities to my RAKEZ licence later?
Yes. RAKEZ allows activity additions and changes through a licence amendment, which GoldenKey can process in a few working days for a small authority fee.
What is the difference between an FZE and an FZCO in RAKEZ?
An FZE has one shareholder and an FZCO has two or more. Both offer limited liability and 100% foreign ownership, and the fees in RAKEZ are usually the same.
Is an audit required for a RAKEZ company?
Requirements vary by zone and by company size. GoldenKey will confirm the current RAKEZ rule when we prepare your quotation, and we provide bookkeeping if you need accounts in any case for corporate tax.
How long does the RAKEZ licence take?
Once your documents are complete, the authority typically issues the licence within 5 working days. Visas and bank account opening follow afterwards.
