Investment & company formation
Company Formation Support in Syria
Forming a company from abroad requires correct documents, coordination between several parties and continuous follow-up. We organize and document the process, coordinate with qualified lawyers and accountants and follow procedures under the required power of attorney, while key decisions and budget stay with you.

What we offer
We start by clarifying the activity you plan and the organizational requirements linked to it: suitable legal form, shareholders, capital, premises and possible sector licences. We do not define these requirements ourselves; we gather and document them in coordination with qualified lawyers and accountants and present the options for you to decide.
We then prepare checklists of the documents needed from you and your partners and help compile, organize, translate and certify them through the competent bodies where required. We coordinate with professionals on drafting the articles of association and submitting registration and permit applications, follow the procedures with the relevant authorities under the power of attorney you grant, and document every query and processing status.
The result is a transparent formation process: at every stage you know what was submitted, what is pending, who is responsible and which official fees were paid. Approval and registration decisions rest solely with the competent authorities, and we do not guarantee a result or a specific timeframe.

Basis for cost and timeline
IAG fees depend on the activity, legal form, number of partners, need for sector licences and the extent of follow-up. We provide a written offer with a defined scope or split into phases. Official fees for registration, permits and certification are separate from IAG fees, are paid according to the competent authority's rules and are shown separately in every statement. Fees of lawyers, accountants and translators are also shown separately and require your approval.
Frequently asked questions
Do you guarantee the commercial registration or licence?
No. Registration and licensing decisions rest with the competent authorities. We provide an organized file and documented follow-up.
Are you lawyers?
No. Legal work is carried out by qualified lawyers; we coordinate with them and organize and follow the process.
How are fees shown?
We always separate official fees paid to authorities under their rules, IAG fees and fees of other professionals, and document every amount.
Do I need to be present in person?
That depends on the procedures and requirements. Many steps can be followed under the required power of attorney; the professionals clarify what requires your presence.
