Ajman, located on the western coast of the UAE along the Arabian Gulf, covers an area of around 259 sq km and has developed into a preferred jurisdiction for offshore company formation. The Ajman Free Zone, established in 1988 and later granted autonomous status under Amiri Decree No. 3 of 1996 by H.H. Sheikh Humaid Bin Rashid Al Nuaimi, plays a key role in regulating business activities. The introduction of International Business Companies (IBC) under the Ajman Offshore Regulations of 2014 has made Ajman offshore company setup a cost-effective and efficient option for international investors.
