How do I choose an Ajman free zone for my business?
First check your exact activity and any necessary approvals with each authority. Next, compare where your customers and operations will be based, whether your business needs storage or customer access, and the number of visas you plan to apply for. An advertised desk package may not be suitable for every activity.
Request the same itemised first-year and renewal quote from each authority, including the licence, permitted facility, immigration registration and visa processing. Use the business activity finder to explore activity options and confirm your choice with the issuing authority.
