ACT Corporate Services

About ACT Corporate Services

ACT Corporate Services operates its Saudi business from a Riyadh office, within a group that also has locations in Dubai and Cairo. The Saudi arm presents itself as a structured extension of a client's compliance function and says it has more than five years of experience in the Kingdom, 150 corporate clients and thousands of government transactions each year. Its main audience is international corporations setting up subsidiaries, regional holding groups expanding into Saudi Arabia, and larger Saudi companies that need organised regulatory follow-up. Company formation covers investment licensing, commercial registration and the registrations that follow, and is backed by government-relations, workforce and HR outsourcing services. A separate line provides bookkeeping and VAT support. The group runs a sister site for UAE free zones and the Saudi site is offered in English and Arabic. It publishes practical guides on residence renewal, employment contracts and tax rules for foreign companies.
