The cost of setting up a foreign company in Saudi Arabia
One of the first questions we get from foreign investors is simple: what will this cost? The honest answer is that it varies significantly by license type, activity, and company size.
Broadly, costs fall into a few buckets: government fees (MISA license, Commercial Registration, municipality fees), minimum capital requirements that differ by license category, and professional fees for setup and ongoing compliance support.
Please note that any figures discussed in a consultation are estimates for planning purposes only, and are not binding quotes. Actual costs depend on your specific activity, structure, and the government fee schedule in effect at the time you apply, which can change.
