About Ajman Offshore Companies
Where are Ajman offshore companies registered?
Ajman offshore companies are registered with the Ajman Free Zone (AFZ), located in the Emirate of Ajman, United Arab Emirates. These entities are formally referred to as International Business Companies (IBCs) under the governing regulations.
AFZ functions as a modern, internationally compliant registry and adheres to global standards followed by other leading offshore jurisdictions. One of its key strengths is the confidentiality it offers to shareholders, with identities kept strictly private in accordance with UAE law.
Ajman offshore companies are ideal for a range of purposes, including asset protection, international trading, tax planning, estate planning, and real estate ownership.
These companies are simple and quick to establish, requiring only one director and one shareholder, who can be the same person.
