Gold & Jewellery Trading in the UAE for Greeks

Why DMCC Free Zone

Unlike some zones, DMCC Free Zone does not require a large paid-up capital to be blocked in a bank account before the licence is granted. One of the reasons we recommend DMCC Free Zone is its world's #1 free zone (Fitch), which matters more than most company owners realise once the business is running.

How DMCC Free Zone works with GoldenKey

1. 
   Step 1

   Consultation and activity selection

   Just as important, we confirm that your activity is available in DMCC Free Zone, choose the licence type and agree the visa package and office option that match your plan. This is also the point at which we answer any question specific to opening a gold and jewellery trading company in the UAE as a Greek founder.

2. 
   Step 2

   Name reservation and initial approval

   GoldenKey reserves your trade name with the DMCC Free Zone authority and obtains initial approval, usually within one to two working days.

3. 
   Step 3

   Document submission and payment

   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 gold and jewellery trading company in the UAE as a Greek founder until you have reviewed and approved it.

4. 
   Step 4

   Licence issued and next steps

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

Why the UAE

The dirham has been pegged to the US dollar since 1997, which removes currency risk for opening a gold and jewellery trading company in the UAE as a Greek founder and makes international pricing simple. Since 2021, most mainland activities have allowed 100% foreign ownership, and free zones have always offered it, so opening a gold and jewellery trading company in the UAE as a Greek founder no longer requires a local partner.
