Logistics & Freight Forwarding in the UAE for Indonesians

Why JAFZA

For most clients, the authority permits Free Zone Establishment (FZE), Free Zone Company (FZCO), Branch and Public Company, which covers solo entrepreneurs, partnerships and overseas groups opening a UAE branch. Importantly, unlike some zones, JAFZA does not require a large paid-up capital to be blocked in a bank account before the licence is issued.

How JAFZA works with GoldenKey

1. 
   Step 1

   Consultation and activity selection

   For most clients, we confirm that your activity is available in JAFZA, choose the licence type and agree the visa package and office option that match your plan. Nothing is submitted for opening a logistics company in the UAE as an Indonesian founder until you have reviewed and approved it.

2. 
   Step 2

   Name reservation and initial approval

   GoldenKey reserves your trade name with the JAFZA authority and obtains initial approval, usually within one to two business days.

3. 
   Step 3

   Document submission and payment

   With the forms and memorandum signed, GoldenKey lodges the attested paperwork and settles the licence fee with the authority on your behalf. Expect clear updates from your GoldenKey consultant while this step runs for opening a logistics company in the UAE as an Indonesian founder.

4. 
   Step 4

   Licence issued and next steps

   JAFZA issues the licence, incorporation certificate and lease; from there we open the establishment card, process visas and arrange your bank introduction.
