SAGIA/MISA Company Formation in Saudi Arabia

The Ministry of Investment of Saudi Arabia (MISA), formerly known as SAGIA, is the authority responsible for attracting and facilitating foreign investment in the Kingdom. Through a MISA license, international companies can establish 100% foreign-owned entities without the need for a local partner, giving them full control and flexibility to operate across most sectors.

This license allows businesses to open bank accounts, lease offices, hire employees, and compete for government and private contracts. While certain activities such as recruitment, healthcare, and some consulting services remain restricted, the approval process is streamlined, with licenses often issued within days.

With Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 driving rapid economic transformation, MISA company formation offers global investors a clear, transparent, and efficient pathway to expand into one of the region’s most dynamic and fast-growing markets.
