An international structure based in Ajman

Ajman Offshore is a UAE offshore / international company route for holding, investment and permitted cross-border business. It is distinct from an operational Ajman Free Zone FZE or FZC with premises and visa arrangements.

01 / OWNERSHIP

International ownership

Structure ownership of subsidiaries or investments through a UAE entity with foreign ownership, subject to onboarding and activity approval.

02 / BUSINESS PURPOSE

Holding & cross-border business

Consider a holding company, special purpose vehicle or permitted international trading structure based on your actual business needs.

03 / LOCAL ARRANGEMENTS

Agent-based incorporation

Coordinate registration and registered office arrangements through the authorised offshore channel. This route does not provide an ordinary UAE operating licence or visa package.

Corporate tax & ongoing compliance

Offshore status does not itself create a UAE Corporate Tax exemption. UAE-incorporated companies fall within the federal tax framework, with registration, accounting and filing obligations as applicable. Any relief or qualifying 0% treatment requires a separate assessment.

Frequently asked questions

Questions before you begin

How does Ajman Offshore differ from Ajman Free Zone?

The offshore / international route is intended for ownership, holding and permitted international business. An operational FZE or FZC is a separate route for an approved free-zone business with the appropriate licence, premises and visa arrangements.

Can an Ajman Offshore company trade directly in the UAE?

It is not a substitute for a UAE mainland or operational free-zone licence. Proposed UAE activities, property ownership and regulated services require a separate review and the necessary approvals.

Is an Ajman Offshore company automatically tax-free?

No. UAE incorporation brings the company within the federal Corporate Tax framework. The applicable treatment and any relief depend on the company’s circumstances; offshore registration does not remove registration or filing requirements.

Can BRIS GROUP help with corporate banking?

We can assist with the corporate documents, business profile, beneficial ownership and source-of-funds package. Account opening, timing and acceptance remain subject to the selected bank’s assessment.

What ongoing support is available?

We can coordinate annual renewal, registered agent arrangements and corporate record updates, together with agreed accounting, tax and banking documentation support.
