WhatsApp quoteGoldenKey helps UAE residents and international business owners register a LLC, QFC company or Qatar Free Zone entity in Qatar through the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Qatar Financial Centre or QFZA. Many of our customers add a Qatar entity to their UAE structure because Qatar pairs well with a UAE entity for groups serving both markets. As we tell every client, the Deira and Ajman textile markets re-export to Africa, Iran and Central Asia. Free zone warehouses in Ajman and SAIF Zone are the most economical way to hold bulk stock close to the ports. Typical examples of this activity include fabric wholesale, uniform supply, garment re-export and home textiles, which can usually sit together on one Qatar licence.
