For most clients, many of our clients add a Saudi Arabia entity to their UAE structure because many clients set up a UAE company first and use it as the parent for their Saudi entity. The tax position in Saudi Arabia is clear: 20% corporate tax on the foreign-owned share of profits, 2.5% Zakat on Saudi-owned share, and 15% VAT. Importantly, czech engineering and manufactured goods have a long-standing market in the Gulf, which gives Czech entrepreneurs a ready market and supply chain the moment their Saudi Arabia licence is issued. Czechs are a small community active in engineering, glass, aviation and software, so the Saudi Arabia authority, the banks and the immigration officers see Czech applications every day and process them without hesitation.
Why Saudi Arabia
On the ground, requirements for a Saudi Arabia company are MISA investment licence, attested parent-company documents (usually a UAE or home-country entity with one year of financials) and commercial registration and Chamber membership. Reasons founders choose Saudi Arabia include the largest economy in the arab world, vision 2030 projects worth trillions, regional headquarters programme and a uae entity makes the saudi application easier. GoldenKey has prepared Saudi Arabia files for Czech clients in engineering, glass and crystal, aviation and software, which means we know which Czech Republic documents need attestation and which can be submitted as plain copies.

Frequently asked questions
Can my UAE company own the Saudi Arabia company?
Yes, it can. A UAE free zone or mainland company can be the shareholder, which is a common structure for groups operating in both markets.
Do I need to travel to Saudi Arabia to incorporate?
In most cases no. Incorporation is handled by our local partner under a power of attorney. Some banks in Saudi Arabia require a video or in-person meeting.
How does Saudi Arabia compare with a UAE free zone?
Each serves different markets. GoldenKey in most cases recommends the UAE as the operating base and Saudi Arabia where you have customers, suppliers or treaty benefits there.
Do Czechs need a UAE visa before applying for Saudi Arabia?
Not in that case. You can apply for the licence from Czech Republic with scanned documents, and the investor residency visa is handled afterwards.
Can a Czech citizen own 100% of a company in Saudi Arabia?
Yes. Czechs can own the full share capital of a Saudi Arabia company with no local partner, exactly like any other nationality.
