Printing & Packaging on Sharjah Mainland

Why Sharjah

For most clients, businesses that benefit most from Sharjah mainland licensing include manufacturing, spare parts trading, logistics, retail and education, because they serve customers on site across the emirate. Government and semi-government tenders in Sharjah require a mainland licence and Chamber of Commerce membership, both of which GoldenKey arranges. As we tell every client, for printing & packaging, Sharjah offers the office options such a business actually needs and a visa quota that can grow with the team.
