How Ajman Free Zone works with GoldenKey

1. 
   Step 1

   Consultation and activity selection

   GoldenKey starts by confirming your activity is available in Ajman Free Zone, then agrees the licence category, visa quota and office option with you in writing.

2. 
   Step 2

   Name reservation and initial approval

   Your trade name is reserved with the Ajman Free Zone authority and initial approval is obtained; this stage rarely takes more than two working days. Nothing is submitted for opening a general trading company in the UAE as a South Korean founder until you have reviewed and approved it.

3. 
   Step 3

   Document submission and payment

   With the forms and memorandum signed, GoldenKey lodges the attested papers and settles the licence fee with the licensing authority on your behalf.

4. 
   Step 4

   Licence issued and next steps

   As a rule, your Ajman Free Zone licence, certificate of incorporation and lease are issued, and we move straight on to the establishment card, visas and bank introduction. If the authority raises a query on opening a general trading company in the UAE as a South Korean founder at this stage, we handle it the same day.
