FAQs

What is the SHAMS - Standard Package?

The SHAMS - Standard Package is a streamlined, budget-friendly business incorporation option offered by Sharjah Media City (SHAMS). It allows 100% foreign ownership registered as an LLC by default (without requiring the "FZ" suffix), a fast, fully digital setup, and zero personal or corporate tax benefits for qualifying entities.

What is the process for getting a license in a free zone?

To get a license in a free zone, the company must submit an application directly with the free zone authority or through an authorized free zone partner.

What are the steps involved in getting a license?

The setup process includes: KYC verification, Initial and security approval, Trade name reservation, Lease/Flexi-desk allocation, Digital signing of legal documents, and Trade license issuance.

What is KYC, and what documents are required?
