IFZA / Shams is an independent firm. It is not owned by TRADhEiR and is not part of TRADhEiR. We list it because it does visas, residency and moving country, setting up a company, and we say openly where our relationship with it stands.

Where their work sits
Their own description of how their work splits.
What you should know
Direct partner status, so the licence is issued rather than resold through a second agent. Banking readiness is prepared alongside the licence.
Before you speak to them
Three things worth checking yourself.
Check the regulator or licence number above on the regulator's own register, not on the firm's website. Ask for the total cost including the second year, not just the first. And ask who will actually be doing the work, because the person who sells it is often not the person who does it.
What they help with
How an introduction works
Nothing to ask. The firm you choose pays us ten percent.
Tell us what you are trying to do and we will say whether IFZA / Shams is the right firm for it or whether somebody else on our list fits better. We are not paid more for sending you to one firm over another, and a firm that pays us and then disappoints you costs us far more than it earns us.
This page is a directory listing. It is not immigration, legal, tax or financial advice, and nothing on it is a recommendation. TRADhEiR makes introductions to independent firms. We are not a firm of solicitors, we are not registered with the Immigration Advice Authority, and we hold no financial services permissions. Firm details are transcribed from each firm's own public material and should be checked with the firm before you rely on them. Last reviewed 2026-09-17.
