If it was possible to give a negative Star i would probably give it...The work culture is extremely poor.... They are quick to ask for money.... But are not willing to do the job.....poor communication.... extreme level of frustration.... Just find another organisation

Unfortunately, my experience with SPC Free Zone has been extremely disappointing and is the main reason I decided to close my company.

The processes are unclear, constantly changing, and poorly communicated. During the company cancellation, the Business Owner Resolution (BOR) was returned to me multiple times despite the fact that it was filled and submitted at their own center. Even at the final stage, the process remained disorganized and inefficient.

The assigned agent, FREDAH, was unable to provide a clear end-to-end process, a defined path, or transparent costs. I had to keep chasing for information, and every time I asked, new requirements or new costs appeared. There was no consistency, ownership, or proper guidance.

What makes this worse is that this is not a one-time issue. The exact same problems happened last year during license renewal and FTA registration, and now they are repeated again during cancellation. This clearly reflects poor internal processes, weak training, and very bad communication.

Because of this experience, I am moving forward and opening in Ajman, where I have found much better support, clearer processes, and proper assistance.

I do not recommend SPC Free Zone for anyone looking for professional, transparent, and reliable business setup or support.

They are a scam company set up only to take your money and then give you the runaround forever, my visa was not approved, with no explanation, so i could not continue with the business setup, but they take your money well before, then when I want to cancel the license and get a refund first they say there is no license cancellation fee, but then when you submit the documents they keep on finding issues with it and moving the goalposts, for 8 months its going on like this, now they say they say i have pay the license cancellation fee. This is a proper scam company designed only to take your money. Don't believe the 5 star reviews, they are obviously fake reviews

One of the worst freezone and service you will ever come across..... once you pay for the license you are trapped.... they will not pick your calls.... Basically a scam organisation.....stay away from them if you want your mental peace..... they will only call you to ask money.... once you pay them you are on your own ..... and I am sure that most Google reviews are fake....The worst ones are truth....

Just as we criticize, we must be fair. A few days ago, we wrote a negative review of SPCFZ and received a call from a supervisor named Ahmad who took a few days to review the email chain and assess the performance of his employees, as well as the veracity of my complaints. Today, he contacted us again personally, resolving the issues fairly and professionally. We appreciate that they dedicated their time to caring for those who trusted them.Thank You

Terrible service, frustrating, poor communication. Would not recommend.

Very bad FZ, I opened two companies there and its a nightmare to get a nice service,
Majority of the clarks there are idiotic people keep pushing you in endless loops.

Be careful when you dealing with this company that took your money and never provide any service awful experience

Significant issues with communication, lack of accountability, and a poor experience with misleading information that led to loss of money and unfulfilled promises, particularly after initial payments were made.

Very good company

Professional service with high quality and prompt clear information

The overall transparency was quite helpful to make the process smoother, and the same was backed by their front office team.

We created our company in spc it's been more than a year now, first we were told that all that administration process we be done in les than 7 days it toke more than a month to setup our company in spc, we face to many problems with visa application, ids got canceled without any realistic reason, and at each time we request a support we always receive if you want this you need to pay and pay again and again, they only request payment, even we were told that we will have our own account manager, after that when requested it again the feedback was you need to pay 3000 aed for a dedicated account manager, I don't recommend this free zone at all.

Avoid at all costs!!! The company is an absolute scam! I had “???” Sent to me by the most unprofessional staff, when they required an extra payment. Now I’m waiting on a refund, they have refunded me 1/5th of what I was due and owe me £4,000!! This has taken weeks of back and forth trying to get some info, no one knows what they are doing here and only know how to take your money.
Unhelpful, not trustworthy and I wouldn’t bother. I have tried to make a formal complaint for several weeks and they don’t do anything

My colleague and I are compelled to write this review out of sheer desperation and disgust, as a stark warning to any unsuspecting soul considering working for a company unfortunate enough to be registered in Sharjah Publishing City Free Zone (SPCFZ), or for any business owner naive enough to believe this is a fair or supportive environment for their employees. Our experience has been an unmitigated disaster, a bureaucratic hellscape that has left us stranded, facing severe personal and financial ruin due to SPCFZ's callous and illogical policies.

The nightmare began when our employer, a company ensnared within SPCFZ, inevitably faced financial and compliance problems – a suspended license, an employee (one of us!) forced into overstay because SPCFZ actively blocked visa processes, an expired E-Channel, the usual mess. As employees, our obvious and urgent need was to get our residence visas cancelled so we could escape this sinking ship, find new jobs, or simply regain control over our legal status. But this is where SPCFZ revealed its true, obstructive nature.

SPCFZ, with breathtaking arrogance, blocked our visa cancellations, callously blaming our employer's company-level issues. This has plunged us into an impossible, maddening "catch-22" situation: SPCFZ refuses to cancel our employee visas because of the company's problems, yet our employer is hamstrung from easily resolving these company-wide issues (many of which are typically addressed during a formal company closure) precisely because SPCFZ's actions have made it nearly impossible to manage anything. It's a disgusting charade where we, the employees, are treated as pawns, held hostage while SPCFZ apparently tries to squeeze our employer.

The impact on us, as employees who have done nothing wrong, has been nothing short of devastating and infuriating:

One of us is now agonizingly unable to accept a new job offer, a lifeline, because our current visa is being held captive by SPCFZ's incompetence and indifference. This isn't just stressful; it's life-altering in the worst way.

The other one of us has been shamefully forced into an overstay situation (over 170 days and still climbing!) solely and directly because SPCFZ deliberately blocked the timely cancellation of the visa. This means we are racking up crippling fines daily, a direct consequence of SPCFZ's gross negligence.

Even when our employer, in good faith, attempted to navigate SPCFZ's convoluted instructions for visa cancellations, including making payments for one of our applications, we were met with nothing but endless, infuriating delays and a complete absence of any clear commitment or basic competence from SPCFZ.

The entire process has been an insulting ordeal of confusing, contradictory, and utterly unhelpful communication from SPCFZ. They've displayed a sickening lack of understanding – or perhaps, a deliberate disregard – for how their appalling actions impact the lives of real people, the employees, and have shown zero willingness to offer any practical, humane solutions to the deadlock they themselves engineered.

When our employer desperately sought clarity on whether paying SPCFZ's processing fees for one of our visa cancellations would actually result in an approval, they were forced to practically beg for an assurance that it wouldn't just be blocked again by the same unresolved company issues – a basic guarantee that any reputable authority would provide without question. It's a disgrace.

Our experience has been an unrelenting torrent of extreme frustration, unbearable stress, and significant financial strain, all directly attributable to what can only be described as SPCFZ's unreasonable, obstructive, and frankly, disgusting practices. Their rules seem designed not to regulate, but to punish everyone, including innocent employees, when a company faces difficulties. It's a system that appears to thrive on creating misery.

We implore anyone considering a job with a company unfortunate enough to be located in SPCFZ: be incredibly careful. If your employer stumbles, you will be the one trapped in SPCFZ's bureaucratic quicksand, with no help, no empathy, only more problems and more contempt. This has been a profoundly awful, soul-destroying experience, and we wouldn't wish this hell on our worst enemy.

Very very Bad experience alwys they just took the money first and after that change the statement . Alwys their desk borad person give wrong information and alwys waste the time they are soo unprofessional and dont know about any thing just want to took money first and after that ok system is checking

Extremely disappointing experience.
I’ve been trying to cancel my company setup with them for over a month now, and it’s been nothing but frustrating. They call me multiple times a day, each time it’s a different person who has no idea what’s going on. I’m constantly having to repeat my situation from the beginning, only to be told something new every time. Their portal is full of errors and won’t let me submit my cancellation request, and instead of helping, they just pass me around and disappear.

At the start, when you’re setting up your company, they’re friendly and responsive but once you’re in, the support completely disappears. If you ever need to make changes like a cancellation or move to a mainland license, they make it almost impossible. No one takes ownership, and no real help is provided.

I wouldn’t recommend this company at all unless you’re prepared to waste a huge amount of time and energy.

To everyone praising them for their service on company formation, that is all about it. For new company formation, they are super quick, they will respond to emails quickly with follow up calls. Your agony will start post formation. They have outsourced their customer service who are sitting in a different country and reply to everything vaguely. They do not even bother to read your emails thoroughly. There is no real person available at SPC who can listen and address your issues. When it comes to renewals or amendments, they will omit material information from you so that you remain stuck with them. I have been a customer for over 3 years now but am now winding up with them and moving to a different free zone, this itself is a huge loss for us as business continuity will be disturbed. My advise is to look elsewhere if you have not formed your company here yet. Zero customer service. Do NOT be fooled by the stellar reviews on company formation. Just select 1-star filter and you will see that all bad reviews are related to post formation.
