RAKEZ Free Zone Company Setup: Documents to Review
AW Document Clearing Service supports customers through its RAKEZ channel-partner arrangement and the relevant RAKEZ service process. RAKEZ and the relevant authorities make final official decisions.
A well-organised file begins with the ownership structure, proposed activity and current residency status. Requirements vary, so the applicable checklist should be confirmed for the specific case.
Documents commonly reviewed for individual shareholders
- Clear passport copies
- UAE visa, entry stamp or Emirates ID where applicable
- No-objection documentation where required
- Supporting information for activities that need additional review
Additional considerations for corporate shareholders
Corporate ownership can involve incorporation documents, constitutional documents, board resolutions, evidence of good standing and authorised signatory information. Attestation or other formalities may apply depending on the issuing country and current requirements.
Prepare the business details too
The file is not only about identity documents. Applicants should accurately describe the intended activity, legal entity, shareholders, facility and expected visa needs.
See our RAKEZ Free Zone Company Setup guide or contact AW to discuss the information to review.
