The Trade License Agreement is a fundamental regulatory document required for businesses seeking to conduct commercial activities in Saudi Arabia. This agreement is mandated by Saudi Arabian commercial law and is essential for both local and foreign entities looking to establish or maintain trading operations in the Kingdom. The document serves as the primary authorization instrument, detailing permitted commercial activities, operational scope, compliance requirements, and regulatory obligations. It must align with various Saudi regulations, including the Commercial Law (Royal Decree No. M/1), Foreign Investment Law, and specific sector regulations. The agreement is particularly crucial in the context of Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030, which aims to diversify the economy and increase foreign investment, while ensuring all commercial activities adhere to local laws and Shariah principles.
