ENTITY TYPES ACROSS THE MIDDLE EAST

There are many entity types available across our Middle East jurisdictions which may vary slightly by name and structuring. 100% Foreign Ownership is possible across most GCC jurisdictions and business activities. There are still however some instances where it may be necessary or beneficial to maintain a local partner. 

The main entity types in the GCC:

• Limited Liability Company (LLC) or With Limited Liability (WLL)
• Branch Office
• Trade Representative Office
• Free Zones or Economic Zones

These entity types are common across most GCC jurisdictions but will have slightly varying requirements and conditions. 

In order to understand the formation requirements, it is best to refer to the location specific pages.
