On the ground, if you are weighing up where to register in the UAE, RAKEZ deserves a close look for its competitive pricing and straightforward renewal process. RAKEZ issues commercial, professional and industrial licences from its base in Ras Al Khaimah, and GoldenKey processes new registrations there every week. GoldenKey has licensed cleaning and facilities company businesses for clients in RAKEZ and knows which sub-activities to list so you are not asked to amend the licence later. Importantly, cleaning & Facilities Management in RAKEZ means commercial and residential cleaning, maintenance and integrated facilities management, and it is licensed as a commercial activity.
Why RAKEZ
Importantly, one of the reasons we recommend RAKEZ is its competitive pricing, which matters more than most founders realise once the business is running. Importantly, unlike some zones, RAKEZ does not require a large paid-up capital to be blocked in a bank account before the licence is issued. Importantly, for cleaning & facilities management, RAKEZ offers the office options such a business actually needs and a visa quota that can grow with the team.
