In Saudi Arabia, company registration in Saudi Arabia is the formal legal framework required to establish a business entity under Saudi law. This process in Saudi Arabia is regulated by multiple government agencies, including the Ministry of Investment, formerly known as the Saudi Arabian General Investment Authority (SAGIA), also referred to as MISA. The process involves defining the type of business, ownership, and ownership structure, preparing legal documents, and completing verification and attestation through approved channels such as gov.sa and other official websites of government agencies. Successful registration results in the issuance of a commercial register entry under Saudi Commercial regulations, ensuring lawful operation from day one.
