The Sharjah Economic Development Department (SEDD) and the Sharjah City Municipality (SCM) are moving to set up a ‘single window’ mechanism to process and approve projects.

A memorandum of understanding (MoU) on this was signed by the two on Monday in the presence of Sultan Abdullah bin Hadda Al Suwaidi, SEDD Chairman, and Obaid Said Obaid Al Tunaiji, Director General of SCM.

The agreement envisaged working to organise the procedures to complete transactions through a single window system and exchange information related to activities of a common nature.

It also included exchanging experiences in matters of common interest.

The two would also hold seminars and workshops and exchange advice and support in common areas.

Sultan Al Suwaidi said the agreement would enhance the integration between the two parties within the framework of a permanent and evolving partnership for mutual benefit.

“It would also contribute to business development and simplification for investors and dealers by regulating the business related to the two parties under the use of the single window system to complete transactions,” he said.

He said the move would facilitate running business in Sharjah and also contribute to raising the level of the emirate’s business attractiveness.
