When bringing your idea into life the first thing that you need to do as an entrepreneur is to find a good licensing project from a trustworthy company, to make starting a business in Ajman easier for you. Not to blow one’s own horn, but MAKATEB’s Ajman Media City Freezone solutions are not something that can be missed. With over a thousand happy clients, their PRO and licensing services in UAE can easily be classed as one of the best in the market. However, let’s explore more about licensing first.
Without acquiring a proper license, performing any business activities in the UAE is a criminal offense that is punishable by jail time and a hefty fine. And not just that, even if a person plans to acquire a license but first wants to align everything else, then that is not possible. Opening a corporate bank account or leasing an office is virtually impossible without a license. Therefore, the sooner you acquire a business and trade license (freelance permit, service/consultancy license, or trade license) along with any other you might need depending on the nature of your business, the sooner you can kickstart your operations.
There are six licensing packages that you can choose from Makateb’s:
- Business Club
- Bronze Package
- Silver Package
- Silver Plus Package
- Gold Package
- Platinum Package
Each of these packages has a different cost depending on the services that are being offered in them. The more or high-level services you require for your business, the more you have to pay. However, some services are important for a particular type of business. Thus, it is important to keep your business’s needs in mind when browsing through offers and packages.
