Frequently asked questions

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.

Are Fujairah mainland companies subject to corporate tax?

Yes. Mainland companies pay 9% corporate tax on profits above AED 375,000 and must register with the FTA, which GoldenKey handles as part of your setup.

What is the difference between Fujairah mainland and a free zone?

Mainland companies can trade directly with any UAE customer and take government contracts; free zone companies have lower costs and customs benefits but trade with the mainland through distributors. GoldenKey compares both for your specific activity.

Do Russians need a UAE visa before applying for Fujairah?

No. You can apply for the licence from Russia with scanned paperwork, and the investor residence visa is handled afterwards.

Can a Russian citizen own 100% of a company in Fujairah?

Yes. Russians can own the full share capital of a Fujairah company with no local partner, exactly like any other nationality.
