Sharjah Publishing City: instant licences, dual-licence mainland reach and up to 20 visas, from a fast-growing authority.
Sharjah Publishing City began as the world’s first publishing free zone and now licenses 1,500+ activities from e-commerce to consultancy. Its differentiators: licences genuinely issued within hours, a dual-licence option that adds Sharjah mainland reach to the same entity, and visa capacity up to 20 on scalable packages, unusual generosity at budget pricing.
For teams that need many visas without Dubai office costs, SPC is often the sharpest tool available.
