A representative office is a form of limited commercial presence in Saudi Arabia that allows a foreign company to conduct market research and promotional activities without engaging in direct commercial transactions or revenue-generating activities. Representative offices cannot issue invoices or hold local bank accounts for revenue collection. They are suitable for companies exploring the Saudi market before committing to a full LLC or branch office establishment. They require MISA registration and Commercial Registration and must comply with standard employment regulations for any staff they employ. Inclusive Solutions advises on representative office suitability and manages the full registration process.
