Visa & office options

ANCFZ companies can sponsor up to 4 residence visas, depending on the office you choose. In most free zones, a flexi-desk supports a small number of visas, and larger quotas need a shared or private office. The investor (owner) visa usually counts towards the quota.

Available office options in ANCFZ: virtual office, flexi-desk. If you expect to hire, choose a package with room to grow — upgrading later is possible but often costs more than starting with the right setup.

Minimum share capital: no fixed minimum for most activities.
