Frequently asked questions
How much office space do I need for a Ras Al Khaimah mainland licence?
The Ras Al Khaimah Department of Economic Development (RAK 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.
What is the difference between Ras Al Khaimah mainland and a free zone?
In short, 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.
Can I convert my free zone company to a Ras Al Khaimah mainland company?
On the ground, you cannot convert directly, but you can open a mainland branch of your free zone company or set up a new mainland LLC and transfer the business. GoldenKey advises on the most tax-efficient route.
Can a Serbian citizen own 100% of a company in Ras Al Khaimah?
Yes. Serbians can own the full share capital of a Ras Al Khaimah company with no local partner, exactly like any other nationality.
How long does the process take for Serbian applicants?
Processing for Serbians follows the same timeline as other nationalities. Documents from Serbia that need attestation are the main variable, and GoldenKey guides you through that step.
