Ministry of Investment

Permitted scope and requirements.

Permitted scope
  • Only the activities required to execute the named government or quasi-government contract.
  • Scope and duration follow the contract itself.
Registration requirements
  • Government-entity letter or the executed contract showing scope, value and duration.
  • Foreign parent commercial registration or incorporation certificate, attested.
  • Corporate resolution appointing the representative for execution.
  • Any sector approval required by the contract's subject matter.
Not permitted under this registration
  • General commercial activity outside the awarded contract.
  • Extending the registration beyond the contract's scope or duration without a new application.
  • Treating this as a temporary certificate issued merely to bid for a tender — that is a different instrument.
Next stage after the Ministry of Investment

Registration is contract-specific. Groups that want to trade generally in Saudi Arabia move to a Standard Investment Registration and then the separate incorporation stage.
