Expert competition & antitrust lawyers in Saudi Arabia. Legal advice and court representation. Contact us today.
We advise on Saudi Competition Law - merger control filings, dominance and cartel risk, GAC investigations, and compliance programs.
The General Authority for Competition enforces merger control and prohibits anti-competitive agreements and abuse of dominance. Penalties reach a significant percentage of annual turnover, which makes early legal review of deals and commercial practices essential.
We prepare economic concentration filings, respond to GAC information requests and dawn-raid situations, and audit distribution and pricing practices - resale price maintenance, exclusivity, and information exchange - before they become investigations.
If your transaction may cross GAC notification thresholds, a competitor or customer has complained, or your sales team's practices have never been reviewed against the Competition Law, this service applies now.
We assess thresholds and risk in days, prepare the filing or response, and manage GAC engagement through to clearance or closure, keeping your commercial timetable in view throughout.
When the parties' combined annual revenues exceed the thresholds in the implementing regulations. We calculate this precisely because closing without clearance is heavily fined.
Price coordination with competitors, resale price maintenance, and exclusivity that forecloses rivals. A short compliance review typically finds and fixes these.
Straightforward filings often clear within the initial review period; complex overlaps take longer. We front-load the economic story to keep review short.
Cooperate, verify the scope of the visit, and call counsel immediately. We provide a one-page dawn-raid protocol to client teams.
