Expert foreign investment lawyers in Saudi Arabia. Legal advice and court representation. Contact us today.
We guide foreign investors through MISA licensing, entity setup, and the sector-specific approvals required to own and operate a business in Saudi Arabia.
Foreign investment in the Kingdom runs through the Ministry of Investment (MISA). The licence type, minimum capital, and documentation depend on your activity - services, industrial, trading, or a regional headquarters. We assess eligibility, prepare the parent-company documents with the required attestations, and file the MISA application.
After the investment licence issues, we complete the downstream steps: commercial registration, municipal licence, GOSI and Qiwa registration, bank account opening support, and any sectoral approvals. We also advise on 100% foreign ownership routes versus structures with a Saudi partner.
If you are a foreign company entering the Saudi market, an established investor expanding activities, or a business converting an existing local arrangement into a fully licensed foreign-owned entity, this is the service you need.
We start with an eligibility review of your activity and documents, then run the MISA filing and follow every downstream registration until the entity can legally trade. You get a clear checklist and timeline from day one.
In most service and industrial activities, yes, through a MISA licence. Some activities have ownership caps or extra conditions, and we confirm this for your specific activity before filing.
Typically the commercial registration and financial statements of the parent, attested through the Saudi embassy and Ministry of Foreign Affairs. We give you the exact list based on the licence type.
A complete, properly attested file is often processed within days; the longer part is usually document attestation abroad, which we help you plan for.
Not in most activities. Where a local partner or a special condition applies, we explain the options and structure the arrangement to protect your position.
