There are many differences between a FreeZone company and other forms of business setup in Ajman. Firstly, FreeZone companies are allowed to do business anywhere in the Ajman and outside the Ajman.

Previously foreign investors or entrepreneurs were not allowed to form a business in the Ajman FreeZone with 100% ownership. It was mandatory to have a local sponsor with 51% of company shares allotted to them. This obligation has been revoked as per the new Dubai company law. This allows foreign entrepreneurs to own 100% of their company shares in the Dubai FreeZone.

Another major advantage differentiating FreeZone companies from others is the office space requirement and setup. Physical office space is required to obtain a FreeZone business setup license in Ajman. FreeZone businesses have the advantage of setting up office spaces anywhere that suits them.

FreeZone companies also do not have any restrictions when it comes to visa eligibility. The number of visas issued is directly proportional to the area of workspace/office space that the company has.

Ajman FreeZone companies also have business aids, tax exemptions, and other benefits in compliance with the latest laws.

You must follow the following procedure for FreeZone company formation in Ajman.
