FAQ
Common questions
General information only; every case turns on its facts.
Can a foreign investor own 100% of a Saudi company?
In many activities yes, with a MISA licence; some activities are excluded or restricted. We check your activity before you apply.
Why run due diligence before buying?
It surfaces hidden liabilities and disputes before they pass to you, and defines the warranties written into the sale agreement.
