WhatsApp quoteA mainland company in Ajman can hold a mainland office, hire staff under MOHRE contracts and register with the Chamber of Commerce for tenders. Ajman is GoldenKey's home emirate — one of the most affordable mainland licences in the northern UAE, and GoldenKey registers mainland companies there with the economic department week in, week out. Danes are a design-led community active in logistics, pharmaceuticals and renewable energy, so the Ajman authority, the banks and the immigration officers see Danish applications every day and process them without hesitation. The most common businesses Danes open through GoldenKey are in logistics, pharmaceuticals, wind energy and design, although Ajman supports almost any activity.
Why Ajman

An Ajman mainland company can apply for an unlimited visa quota in proportion to its office space, which free zone packages cannot match. GoldenKey has prepared Ajman files for Danish clients in logistics, pharmaceuticals, wind energy and design, which means we know which Denmark documents need attestation and which can be submitted as plain copies.

Frequently asked questions
Can a Ajman mainland company trade in other emirates?
Yes. A mainland licence is valid across the UAE, and you can open branches in other emirates by registering with their economic departments.
How long does Ajman mainland company formation take?
Put simply, with documents and a tenancy contract ready, the Ajman Department of Economic Development (Ajman DED) typically issues the licence within 3 business days. External approvals for regulated activities add time.
How much office space do I need for a Ajman mainland licence?
The Ajman Department of Economic Development (Ajman DED) requires a registered tenancy for most licences. A small office or a desk in a business centre is enough for a few visas, and the visa quota increases with the floor area.
Is there a double taxation agreement between Denmark and the UAE?
In practice, the UAE has double taxation agreements with more than 130 countries. Whether Denmark is covered and how it applies to you depends on the current treaty position, which GoldenKey checks with a tax adviser before you rely on it.
Do Danes need a UAE visa before applying for Ajman?
No. You can apply for the licence from Denmark with scanned supporting documents, and the investor residency visa is completed afterwards.
