Freelance Visa in Sharjah

A residence visa attached to a freelance permit in a media, tech or education free zone

Put simply, the Freelance Visa is a residency visa attached to a freelance permit in a media, tech or education free zone. Freelance Visa are the part of UAE business life that founders least want to do themselves, and the part GoldenKey does every day. Day to day, sharjah businesses in districts such as Al Nahda, Industrial Area, Al Majaz, Al Khan and Muwaileh use GoldenKey for Freelance Visa because we combine local presence with federal expertise. Day to day, sharjah International Airport is a major cargo hub.

Why Freelance Visa

Day to day, freelance Visa are available to our own company-formation clients and to businesses that set up elsewhere and now want reliable support. GoldenKey's PRO team visits the immigration, labour and municipality offices daily, so documents for Freelance Visa move without waiting for a weekly run.
