Frequently asked questions
The questions decision-makers ask us before they start.
How long does it take to establish a foreign company in Saudi Arabia?+
It depends on the activity and the ownership documents provided. Once documentation is complete we move through MISA licensing, Commercial Registration, the General Manager visa and platform registration in sequence — our role is to remove the rejections and re-submissions that usually extend this timeline.
Do we need to be in Saudi Arabia during the process?+
No. We execute the process on the ground on your behalf, electronically or in person, and report progress to your management. Your presence is only required where an authority explicitly requires it.
How is the fee determined?+
After the assessment. We define the scope, the authorities involved and the workload, then issue a quotation covering execution and, if you choose, ongoing administrative management.
What is Saudization and how does it affect us?+
Your Saudi headcount determines how many foreign employees you may hire. We calculate your position under the developed Nitaqat programme, report the gap, and recruit Saudi nationals at optimised cost to keep you in the required band.
Can you take over a company that already operates here?+
Yes. We review the current administrative and compliance position, close outstanding exposure, correct the platform records, and then take over daily management.
What do you handle after formation?+
Everything administrative: government transactions, renewals, employee affairs, labour compliance, Saudization ratios, cost control and reporting to your executive management.
