About Tasis Partners: a clear, written path to your Saudi business setup

A founder who wants to set up in Dubai can easily find a provider that answers in their language and takes the whole file off their hands. For Saudi Arabia, that kind of partner barely exists, especially for French speakers and for smaller companies. Much of the information online is dated, contradictory or aimed at large groups. For French nationals, we have gathered the points specific to their situation (apostille, tax treaty, social security) in a dedicated guide: business setup in Saudi Arabia for French citizens.

Yet the market has opened up. The revised Investment Law, in force since February 2025, replaced the old "MISA license" with an investment registration certificate, and most activities now accept 100% foreign ownership. The procedures are online, but they run across several platforms (MISA, Saudi Business Center, ZATCA, GOSI, Qiwa, Muqeem) and require foreign documents that are legalised and translated.

Tasis Partners ("tasis", تأسيس, means "founding" or "establishment" in Arabic) fills that gap in its own way: guides in English, French and Arabic that explain each step, a free scoping call that tells you plainly what is possible and what is not, then a written quote and step-by-step follow-up with you.

Nathan Fenina is the founder and CEO of Décupler, a French agency specialising in search engine optimisation (SEO) and generative engine optimisation (GEO), based in Nice. He works with SaaS, e-commerce and B2B service companies on organic acquisition.

That work is about structuring complex information, checking sources and documenting every decision. Tasis Partners applies the same method to Saudi procedures: every step is explained, every figure links to a dated official source, and every file is tracked in writing.

Nathan Fenina is neither a lawyer nor an accountant. Tasis Partners scopes projects, coordinates the steps and follows files; for legal or tax advice, we point you to a qualified professional.

Every regulatory figure on this site (fees, thresholds, official timelines) links to the official source that sets it: the Ministry of Investment (misa.gov.sa), the Ministry of Commerce (mc.gov.sa and the Saudi Business Center), ZATCA (zatca.gov.sa), SAIP (saip.gov.sa), GOSI, or the law itself. Sources are listed at the bottom of each page.

Each page shows the month it was last reviewed. When information is not officially published or sources disagree, we give a range and write "to be confirmed at filing" rather than presenting a figure as certain.

Amounts that depend on your file, such as the fees MISA sets at approval, are never presented as final. If you spot outdated information, write to us: we check it and update the page with the new review date.
