Unlock Opportunities in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

Driven by Vision 2030, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) has rapidly transformed into one of the most dynamic and lucrative markets in the world for foreign investment. With massive giga-projects, economic diversification, and highly favorable foreign investment laws, establishing a business in Saudi Arabia offers unprecedented growth potential. Al Ashraf Group provides seamless, end-to-end business setup and advisory services to help you navigate the Saudi market with confidence.

The Ministry of Investment (MISA) License

To operate a 100% foreign-owned entity in Saudi Arabia, businesses must obtain a license from the Ministry of Investment of Saudi Arabia (MISA), formerly known as SAGIA. This license permits foreign investors to hold up to 100% ownership in sectors such as technology, healthcare, manufacturing, trading, and services. Al Ashraf Group handles the entire MISA application process, ensuring full compliance with local regulations.

Popular Business Structures in Saudi Arabia

Limited Liability Company (LLC): The most common structure for foreign investors. Allows for 100% foreign ownership (subject to MISA approval) and provides a flexible corporate structure for local operations.
Branch of a Foreign Company: Ideal for established international businesses wanting a direct presence in KSA without creating a new separate legal entity.
Regional Headquarters (RHQ): A specialized program designed for multinational companies to set up their Middle East headquarters in Saudi Arabia, offering exclusive government contracting benefits and tax incentives.
