RAKEZ is RAK's all-in-one economic zone — business, industrial and academic licences, and it has become one of the most practical choices for founders who want a UAE licence without a large upfront budget. As a rule, setting up a company in RAKEZ gives you 100% ownership, a UAE trade licence and the option to sponsor residence visas for yourself and your family. GoldenKey has Indonesian clients from Jakarta, Surabaya and Bandung, and our consultants understand the papers issued in Indonesia and how to attest them for the UAE. Day to day, the most common businesses Indonesians open through GoldenKey are in halal food, furniture, hospitality and palm oil, although RAKEZ supports almost any activity.
Why RAKEZ
As we tell every client, unlike some zones, RAKEZ does not require a large paid-up capital to be blocked in a bank account before the licence is issued. RAKEZ licences are renewed annually with a simple online payment and updated passport copies, and GoldenKey sends a reminder 60 days before the due date.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to visit the UAE to set up in RAKEZ?
Most RAKEZ licences can be granted 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.
How long does the RAKEZ licence take?
On the ground, once your paperwork are complete, the licensing authority typically issues the licence within 5 working days. Visas and bank account opening follow afterwards.
Can I add more activities to my RAKEZ licence later?
Yes, it can. RAKEZ allows activity additions and changes through a licence amendment, which GoldenKey can process in a few working days for a small authority fee.
Can a Indonesian citizen own 100% of a company in RAKEZ?
It can. Indonesians can own the full share capital of a RAKEZ company with no local partner, exactly like any other nationality.
Which licence type covers education & training?
Just as important, education & Training is classified as a professional activity, and GoldenKey selects the exact activity code so your licence matches what you actually do.
