Import & Export on Ajman Mainland

Why Ajman

Businesses that benefit most from Ajman mainland licensing include retail, restaurants, cleaning services, car rental and trading, because they serve customers on site across the emirate. Ajman mainland licences are issued by the Ajman Department of Economic Development (Ajman DED), which currently processes most standard files in around 3 working days (Monday to Friday). GoldenKey has licensed import & export in Ajman for clients ranging from solo company owners to groups opening a regional branch, so we know which sub-activities to list.
