General Trading in the UAE for Danes

Why Ajman Free Zone

In short, one of the reasons our advice is to choose Ajman Free Zone is its among the most affordable in the UAE, which matters more than most entrepreneurs realise once the business is running. In our experience, the authority permits Free Zone Establishment (FZE), Free Zone Company (FZCO) and Branch of Foreign Company, which covers solo business owners, partnerships and overseas groups opening a UAE branch.

How Ajman Free Zone works with GoldenKey

1. 
   Step 1

   Consultation and activity selection

   GoldenKey starts by confirming your activity is available in Ajman Free Zone, then agrees the licence category, visa quota and office option with you in writing. For opening a general trading company in the UAE as a Danish founder this step rarely needs your presence; scans and e-signatures are enough.

2. 
   Step 2

   Name reservation and initial approval

   Importantly, your trade name is reserved with the Ajman Free Zone authority and initial approval is obtained; this stage rarely takes more than two working days.

3. 
   Step 3

   Document submission and payment

   From day one, you sign the application forms and memorandum, we submit the attested documents and the licence fee is paid to the authority. Nothing is submitted for opening a general trading company in the UAE as a Danish founder until you have reviewed and approved it.

4. 
   Step 4

   Licence issued and next steps

   Once the Ajman Free Zone licence and company supporting documents are released, we move immediately to the immigration file, residence visas and the bank meeting.

Why the UAE

The UAE sits within an eight-hour flight of two-thirds of the world's population, which is why so many founders choose it as a base for opening a general trading company in the UAE as a Danish founder. Since 2021, most mainland activities have allowed 100% foreign ownership, and free zones have always offered it, so opening a general trading company in the UAE as a Danish founder no longer requires a local partner.
