Why Fujairah
A Fujairah mainland licence, issued 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. GoldenKey helps company owners compare Fujairah mainland with the nearby free zones honestly, because the right answer depends on where your customers are. Typical examples of this activity include video production, podcast studio, publishing house and content creator, which can usually sit together on one Fujairah licence. Media & Content Production in Fujairah means video production, photography, publishing, podcasting and content creation, and it is licensed as a professional activity.
For most clients, the emirate hosts major oil storage terminals and the Habshan pipeline terminus. A Fujairah mainland company can apply for an unlimited visa quota in proportion to its office space, which free zone packages cannot match. Put simply, fujairah is a sensible home for media & content production because video production, photography, publishing, podcasting and content creation is a well-understood activity there and the approvals are routine.
