Issuing licenses to companies and establishments

Because the regular start of any commercial or professional entity begins with a sound license, «Arab Charter» manages the licensing journey from the idea until the final issuance. We determine the type of license and the competent authorities, prepare documents in accordance with the approved requirements, and complete submission and follow-up electronically until the license is issued, while providing the customer with a guide to post-issuance obligations to ensure continuous compliance.

Service details

«Mithaq Al Arabiya» provides the service of issuing government licenses for various commercial, investment, professional, industrial and tourism activities within regulatory frameworks approved by official bodies such as the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Investment, the Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs and Housing, the Ministry of Tourism, the Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources, and the Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority.
We begin by studying the nature of the activity to determine the type of license, requirements, and relevant authorities. We then prepare a package of regulatory documents (partnership contracts, partner data, commercial register, lease/allocation contracts…), ensuring their compliance with the regulations and requirements of each authority. Application and follow-up processes are managed through official electronic platforms, and we keep pace with the audit and review stages until the final license is issued.
After issuance, we provide the client with a brief legal report outlining post-licensing obligations, such as registration with Zakat, Tax, Customs, Social Insurance, and Quwa Platform, to ensure the entity is systematically activated and compliance continues. The service combines legal expertise with administrative understanding to complete licensing procedures efficiently and clearly.
