Diagnose
Activity mapping to ISIC, licensing exposure, document audit — the honest gap list.
Structure
Entity form, governance, and the filing order settled on paper before any fee is paid.
File & follow
Submissions managed to milestones; counsel executes regulated steps; you approve each gate.
The mechanics this solves
Saudi licensing rewards sequence. A MISA license, commercial registration, municipal and sector approvals, and bank onboarding each consume the outputs of the one before — and attestation feeds them all. The service exists to run that dependency graph correctly the first time.
An indicative corridor on stated assumptions — the engagement replaces it with your dates.
INDICATIVE CORRIDOR — 8–12 WEEKS
Attestation is the usual long pole; special approvals add their own clocks. Indicative, not advice.
Is this the right engagement for you?
Who this is for
- You are a foreign company that needs a Saudi entity and wants the licence, structure, and documentation done right the first time.
- Your activity touches more than one approval, and you want the sequence owned rather than discovered.
- You have parent-company documents that will need attestation and want that chain started before it becomes the bottleneck.
- You want licensed counsel on the regulated steps without managing several firms yourself.
And who it isn't for
- You already have a Saudi entity and only need ongoing compliance — retained counsel fits better.
- You are still deciding whether to enter at all — start with a consultation or the establish-a-company pathway.
- You need pure legal representation in a dispute — that is a litigation mandate, not market entry.
A manufacturer wants a trading and light-assembly entity. Read as one activity it looks simple; in practice the assembly component pulls in a second approval and shifts the Saudization band. Caught at classification, it is a design choice made deliberately. Caught after the licence issues, it is a costly amendment. This is the kind of ordering the engagement gets right before it becomes expensive.
MISA license vs. commercial registration — which comes first? +
For a foreign-owned entity, the MISA investment license precedes commercial registration: the CR is issued against it. Domestic-only structures skip MISA. The pathway map states your exact order and why.
How long does attestation really take? +
It depends on the origin country's chain — notary, foreign ministry, Saudi embassy, then local recognition. Weeks, commonly. It is the schedule's long pole, which is why the checklist sequences it first.
Can you act as our lawyer? +
No — and we say so plainly. Regulated legal work is executed by appropriately licensed counsel we brief, coordinate, and quality-control. You get one accountable coordinator and properly licensed execution.

A structured consultation, an NDA on request, and a one-page pathway memo afterwards — yours either way.
