WhatsApp quoteAjman Free Zone is one of the UAE's most affordable free zones — 0-visa packages from AED 5,500, and it has become one of the most practical choices for founders who want a UAE licence without a large upfront budget. Ajman Free Zone issues commercial, professional and industrial licences from its base in Ajman, and GoldenKey processes new registrations there every week. Day to day, payments between Latvia and the UAE are routine: the dirham is pegged to the dollar, euro (EUR) transfers settle quickly and UAE banks are familiar with Latvian business profiles. Latvians are a small community in logistics, IT and timber trading, so the Ajman Free Zone authority, the banks and the immigration officers see Latvian applications every day and process them without hesitation.
