Benefits of setting an offshore company in Ajman Offshore/Ajman Free Zone

Privacy

Offshore companies are not obligated to disclose financial information publicly or reveal personal details of their directors and shareholders in public records. Additionally, there is no mandate for offshore businesses to undergo auditing.

International Expansion

Establishing an offshore company with a UAE-based address instantly enhances a business's credibility, paving the way for new international partnerships and activities. Simultaneously, this setup enables you to open a UAE bank account, granting unparalleled access to multiple currencies and facilitating global transactions.

Tax Exemptions

As of 2023, the UAE introduced a corporate tax rate of 9%. Nonetheless, offshore companies, being ineligible to conduct business operations within the country, are exempt from this tax.

Less Liabilities

Having an offshore company provides assurance that its assets and possessions are safeguarded in the event of legal actions. Additionally, they offer asset protection for investors by establishing a legal barrier between the company's resources and external parties.

Types of Offshore companies in Ajman Free Zone

Unlike mainland and free zone companies that provide business licenses, offshore companies in Ajman Free Zone are issued certificates to operate UAE-based firms instead. This is because an offshore company in Ajman Free Zone is not authorized to conduct operations within the country, hence they do not receive licenses.
