Many of our customers 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. GoldenKey helps UAE residents and international founders register a Limited Liability Company under a MISA foreign investment licence in Saudi Arabia through the Ministry of Investment (MISA) and Ministry of Commerce. The most common businesses Slovaks open through GoldenKey are in automotive, IT services, hospitality and engineering, although Saudi Arabia supports almost any activity. As we tell every client, for Slovak entrepreneurs, the UAE is around 6 hours via Vienna from Bratislava, the UAE is 2 to 3 hours ahead of Slovakia, and English is the business language.
Why Saudi Arabia
Put simply, requirements for a Saudi Arabia company are MISA investment licence, attested parent-company documents (typically a UAE or home-country entity with one year of financials) and commercial registration and Chamber membership. GoldenKey works with licensed corporate service providers in Saudi Arabia and remains your single point of contact throughout. Many Slovak founders run Saudi Arabia companies alongside an existing business in Slovakia, using the UAE entity for international invoicing and regional sales.

Frequently asked questions
Can my UAE company own the Saudi Arabia company?
Yes. 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 usually recommends the UAE as the operating base and Saudi Arabia where you have customers, suppliers or treaty benefits there.
Can a Slovak citizen own 100% of a company in Saudi Arabia?
Yes. Slovaks can own the full share capital of a Saudi Arabia company with no local partner, exactly like any other nationality.
Is there a double taxation agreement between Slovakia and the UAE?
It can. The UAE and Slovakia have a double taxation agreement, and a UAE tax residency certificate lets you claim treaty relief on qualifying income. GoldenKey can obtain the certificate once your company is established.
