A RAKEZ company can be owned entirely by foreign nationals, needs no local sponsor and can start trading internationally as soon as the licence is granted. 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. Typical examples of this activity include corporate training, language institute, online coaching and vocational training, which can generally sit together on one RAKEZ licence. The most common businesses Poles open through GoldenKey are in IT and software, furniture, cosmetics and food exports, although RAKEZ supports almost any activity.
