Education & Training in the UAE for Lithuanians

Training centres, tutoring, corporate training, e-learning and vocational institutes

RAKEZ issues commercial, professional and industrial licences from its base in Ras Al Khaimah, and GoldenKey processes new registrations there every week. GoldenKey has guided hundreds of entrepreneurs through RAKEZ company formation, from name reservation to the moment the licence PDF lands in their inbox. The most common businesses Lithuanians open through GoldenKey are in fintech, laser technology, food exports and logistics, although RAKEZ supports almost any activity. For most clients, typical examples of this activity include corporate training, language institute, online coaching and vocational training, which can usually sit together on one RAKEZ licence.

Why RAKEZ

To be clear, popular activities in RAKEZ include trading, industrial, consultancy, services and manufacturing, and most of them can be combined on a single licence. 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

What is the difference between an FZE and an FZCO in RAKEZ?

An FZE has one shareholder and an FZCO has two or more. Both offer limited liability and 100% foreign ownership, and the fees in RAKEZ are as a rule the same.

Is an audit required for a RAKEZ company?

Requirements vary by zone and by company size. GoldenKey will confirm the current RAKEZ rule when we prepare your quotation, and we provide bookkeeping if you need accounts in any case for corporate tax.

Can a RAKEZ company do business on the UAE mainland?

A RAKEZ company can sell to mainland customers through a mainland distributor, invoice services to mainland customers in most cases, and apply for a dual-licence arrangement where the emirate offers one. Direct retail or on-site contracting on the mainland needs a mainland licence.

Do Lithuanians need a UAE visa before applying for RAKEZ?

Not in that case. You can apply for the licence from Lithuania with scanned documents, and the investor residence visa is handled afterwards.

Is education & training allowed in RAKEZ?

Yes. Lithuanians can own 100% of a training institute in the UAE. {brand} recommends RAKEZ for this activity and confirms any sector approvals before you commit.
