PRO Services in Saudi Arabia: All You Need to Know


Corporate PRO service providers are a catalyst for accelerating your business setup and expansion initiatives.

Why do you need a PRO Service Provider in Saudi Arabia?

  • Regulatory Compliance

Saudi Arabia's legal framework is constantly evolving, and companies unfamiliar with local laws may struggle to keep up, leading to compliance issues.

  • Language and Cultural Barriers

Language and cultural barriers can hinder communication with government agencies and key partners, resulting in operational inefficiencies.

  • Business Setup Requirements

The process of registering a company in Saudi Arabia can be challenging for foreign businesses, which may be unsure of the necessary steps and legal procedures.

  • Risks of Non-Compliance

Incomplete paperwork is a major cause of delays and rejections during the company formation process, highlighting the importance of professional PRO solutions.

What is the Scope of Outsourced PRO Services in KSA?

In Saudi Arabia, the role of a public relations (PR) encompasses full regulatory compliance oversight and strategic business support for companies operating in the kingdom.

PRO service providers focus on navigating the intricate process of license renewals, including those from the Ministry of Investment (MISA), Ministry of Commerce, and Commercial Registration (CR), while also handling the acquisition and renewals of key certificates such as Chamber of Commerce, Saudization, GOSI, SME, and WPS—essential for legal compliance and eligibility to bid on contracts.

Additionally, these services cover National Address management, ensuring businesses keep their certificates current on government platforms to avoid operational disruptions affecting payroll, visa processing, and employee administration.

Advantages of Outsourcing PRO Services in Saudi Arabia

  • Cost Savings

Outsourcing PRO services can cut your PRO-related expenses by up to 50%.

  • Ongoing Compliance Support

Partnering with a PRO service provides continuous support and regular compliance checks, allowing you to focus on growing your business.

  • Expedited Document Approval

A PRO officer can expedite paperwork submission and government approvals, helping you secure essential documents like Saudization, GOSI, and WPS certificates and get attestations from the Chamber of Commerce.

  • License Renewals

PRO officer acts as your growth partner for your company, handling all your license renewals, including your MISA, MoC, and Commercial Registration (CR), ensuring you have uninterrupted support for all your compliance needs.

  • Risk Mitigation

PRO service providers help you avoid legal issues, fines, and operational disruptions by making sure that your certifications and licenses and the company’s records remain up-to-date.

Importance of GRO Services in Saudi Arabia

Besides PRO services, we deliver complete government liaison services in Saudi Arabia, supporting companies at both expansion and corporate growth stages to operate smoothly without disruptions.

Leveraging our in-depth knowledge of local regulations and strong government liaison expertise, our GRO specialists streamline interactions with government agencies and help businesses integrate regulatory compliance into their day-to-day operations.

What’s at Stake Without a PRO Compliance Partner

Expired Licenses Risk Legal Status

Missing renewal deadlines for your CR or MISA license can jeopardize your company’s legal standing in Saudi Arabia

Outdated Certificates Limit Contract Eligibility

Without valid Saudization, GOSI, or CoC certificates, you lose access to government tenders and public/private sector opportunities

Non-Compliance Can Trigger Portal Restrictions

Lapsed National Address or WPS records can block portal access—halting essential services like payroll, visas, and employee management

From visa processing to document clearance, why are PRO services a must-have?

Visa & Entry Services

Anyone who wishes to enter Saudi Arabia will require a visa, except for citizens of countries that are members of the Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf.

Types of visas in Saudi Arabia:

Requirements to Secure a Saudi Arabia Work Visa

To obtain a visa, employees will require a sponsor in Saudi Arabia. The sponsoring employer is responsible for most of the application process, but the prospective employee will need to supply all the necessary documents.

Our PRO experts manage the entire process for visas, work permits, and Iqama issuance. Key services are:

  • Visa processing (work, business visit, exit re-entry)
  • Visa extensions and renewals
  • Work permit and Iqama issuance and renewal
  • Sponsorship transfers for non-Saudi employees

Document clearance

Depending on the nature of your business, you will need to submit your incorporation documents. Our team assists you with the necessary paperwork and fast-tracks the process of document clearance and approvals.

Services include:

  • Prepare, submit, translate, attest, and notarize legal and employee documents with relevant ministries (MoFA, SBC, MoJ).
  • Manage visa renewals, exit/re-entry permits, and Iqama issuance/renewal.
  • Represent clients in government correspondence, follow-ups, and issue resolution.
  • Monitor regulatory requirements, track approvals, and ensure compliance.

Our partnership with government entities like MISA further solidifies our position as a trusted provider of business setup and corporate services for high-growth foreign organizations.

  • Comprehensive Solutions

  • Client-Centric Approach

We had a unique experience with AstroLabs, we engaged with them a long time ago because Saudi has always been our target market, Faloos was built for the Saudi market and we wanted local support. We understood the value of having people on the ground, and knew the people that would help move us forward with our process.

AstroLabs provided invaluable support in our strategic entry into Saudi, which is one of the largest markets in MENA.
