Ajman vs SRTIP — which is cheaper for a small business?
According to Formenzo’s 2026 UAE Free Zone Price Index, Ajman NuVentures is cheaper than SRTIP at the entry visa counts. Licence-only, Ajman is AED 4,888 against SRTIP’s AED 5,500 — and Ajman is the cheapest UAE free zone overall. Add one residence visa and Ajman is AED 10,800 all-in versus AED 12,500 at SRTIP, a saving of AED 1,700. The trade-off is focus, not just price: SRTIP is the Sharjah Research, Technology and Innovation Park, built for tech, research and innovation companies that value its specialist ecosystem and university links — something Ajman’s general-purpose packages do not offer. Both give 100% foreign ownership and issue licences in 3–8 working days. In short: choose Ajman to spend the least, choose SRTIP if its innovation-park environment fits your business. The full fee-by-fee comparison follows below.
