The Ajman Free Zone (AFZ) has received a five-star rating given by the Department of Digital Ajman under the first phase of its ‘Star System for Governmental Digital Services Project.’ The high classification was granted after the free zone’s eight sub-services included in its main ‘Licenses and Lease Contracts’ service met all of the star system’s criteria.
The distinguished achievement comes amid the Ajman Free Zone’s continuous efforts to leverage advanced technological innovations, as well as develop and expand the scope of its digital services to comply with regulatory measures concerning trade, business and investment activities. Its efforts are in line with the directives of the wise leadership to accelerate the digital transformation of Ajman so that it can meet the requirements of the future.
H.E. Eng. Ali Abdulla bin Towaih AlSuwaidi, Director General of Ajman Free Zone, attributed the high rating to the unwavering support of H.H.
