About Fujairah
Why Fujairah
A Fujairah mainland licence, released by the Fujairah Municipality and Department of Industry and Economy, lets your company trade anywhere in the UAE, bid for government work and open as many branches as you need. In practice, since the 2021 ownership reforms, most Fujairah mainland activities allow 100% foreign ownership, which removed the biggest objection founders used to have. The most common businesses Indians open through GoldenKey are in trading, IT and software, retail and construction, although Fujairah supports almost any activity. India is consistently among the UAE's top trading partners, and the CEPA agreement signed in 2022 removed duties on most goods flowing both ways, which gives Indian entrepreneurs a ready market and supply chain the moment their Fujairah licence is released.
Crucially, among the strengths of a Fujairah mainland licence are direct Indian Ocean port access and World-class bunkering hub, which is why local service businesses gravitate here. Popular districts for a Fujairah mainland office include Fujairah City, Dibba, Al Faseel, Sakamkam and Qidfa, each with different rent levels and customer footfall. GoldenKey has prepared Fujairah files for Indian clients in trading, IT and software, retail and construction, which means we know which India paperwork need attestation and which can be submitted as plain copies.

View all FAQsHow much office space do I need for a Fujairah mainland licence?
For most clients, the Fujairah Municipality and Department of Industry and Economy 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.
How long does Fujairah mainland company formation take?
With paperwork and a tenancy contract ready, the Fujairah Municipality and Department of Industry and Economy typically issues the licence within 4 working days. External approvals for regulated activities add time.
Do I still need an Emirati partner for a Fujairah mainland company?
For most commercial and industrial activities, no. Since 2021 foreign nationals can own 100% of a Fujairah mainland LLC. A short list of strategic activities still requires Emirati participation, and GoldenKey checks your activity before you commit.
How long does the process take for Indian applicants?
Day to day, processing for Indians follows the same timeline as other nationalities. Documents from India that need attestation are the main variable, and GoldenKey guides you through that step.
Is there a double taxation agreement between India and the UAE?
It can. The UAE and India have a double taxation agreement, and a UAE tax residency certificate lets you claim treaty relief on qualifying income. GoldenKey can obtain the certificate once your company is established.
