Questions we often get

What happens the moment I register?

Your application starts immediately. We create your file, a member of our team is assigned to it, and you get access to a client portal where you can see every stage, from registration through to your company being operational.

Will I be notified when something changes?

Yes. Every time a stage of your application is completed or moves forward, you get an email, and you can see the update live in your portal.

Who handles my application?

One or more members of our team are assigned to your file. You can see who they are in your portal, and they are the ones notified alongside you whenever something changes.

Can I own 100% of a company in Qatar as a foreigner?

In most sectors, yes. A few activities still require a Qatari shareholder. We confirm this for your specific activity during the discovery call.

How long does the whole process take?

It depends on your structure and how quickly documents can be attested. We give you a realistic timeline once we understand your situation, and you can always see where your application stands in the portal.

Do I need to speak Arabic or be in Qatar in person?

No. We handle the process in French or English, and many steps can be completed remotely under a power of attorney where the structure allows it.
