WhatsApp quoteFor most clients, if you are weighing up where to register in the UAE, RAKEZ deserves a close look for its competitive pricing and simple renewal process. RAKEZ combines competitive pricing with the flexibility to add activities and visas later, and for that reason it suits both first-time entrepreneurs and established groups. Crucially, egyptians are one of the largest Arab communities in the UAE, with several hundred thousand residents across all seven emirates, so the RAKEZ authority, the banks and the immigration officers see Egyptian applications every day and process them without hesitation. On the ground, egyptian professionals form the backbone of many UAE engineering, legal and media firms, and Egypt-UAE investment flows are among the highest in the region, which gives Egyptian entrepreneurs a ready market and supply chain the moment their RAKEZ licence is issued.
Why RAKEZ
One of the reasons we recommend RAKEZ is its competitive pricing, which matters more than most entrepreneurs realise once the business is running. RAKEZ is located in Ras Al Khaimah emirate — 45 minutes from Dubai via Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road, and the issuing authority's processing time for a standard file is around 5 working days. Egyptian applicants benefit from the fact that RAKEZ already has many Egyptian shareholders on its register, so its officers recognise Egypt documents and name formats instantly.

Frequently asked questions
How long does the RAKEZ licence take?
As we tell every client, once your paperwork are complete, the authority typically issues the licence within 5 business days. Visas and bank account opening follow afterwards.
Do I need to visit the UAE to set up in RAKEZ?
Most RAKEZ 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 completed.
Can a RAKEZ company do business on the UAE mainland?
A RAKEZ company can sell to mainland customers through a mainland distributor, invoice services to mainland clients in most cases, and apply for a dual-licence arrangement where the emirate offers one. Direct retail or on-site contracting on the mainland needs a mainland licence.
Is there a double taxation agreement between Egypt and the UAE?
It can. The UAE and Egypt have a double taxation agreement, and a UAE tax residency certificate lets you claim treaty relief on qualifying income. GoldenKey can obtain the certificate once your company is established.
Do Egyptians need a UAE visa before applying for RAKEZ?
No. You can apply for the licence from Egypt with scanned documents, and the investor UAE residence visa is processed afterwards.
