WhatsApp quoteRAKEZ combines competitive pricing with the flexibility to add activities and visas later, which is why it suits both first-time founders and established groups. Founders choose RAKEZ when they want a credible UAE address, fast licensing and packages that scale from a solo flexi-desk to a multi-visa office. Latvians are a small community in logistics, IT and timber trading, so the RAKEZ authority, the banks and the immigration officers see Latvian applications every day and process them without hesitation. To be clear, 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.
Why RAKEZ
One of the reasons we point clients to RAKEZ is its competitive pricing, which matters more than most entrepreneurs realise once the business is running. RAKEZ is located in Ras Al Khaimah emirate — 45 minutes from Dubai via Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road, and the authority's processing time for a standard file is around 5 working days.
