Up to 100% in most activities

As the capital, Riyadh hosts the Ministry of Investment, the main government authorities and the head offices of most large Saudi employers. For an incoming investor that proximity is practical: filings, attestations and follow-up meetings happen where the decisions are made.

It is the natural base for a regional headquarters, a financial or professional services firm, or any activity that depends on close contact with government entities and large corporate clients. We handle the licence, the commercial registration and the post-setup registrations, then stay on for the ongoing compliance work.
