Typically, company formation in Qatar takes between 2 to 6 weeks, depending on the business activity, legal structure, and the speed of government approvals. Free zone registrations may be faster, while mainland setups with special activity approvals can take slightly longer. Our team at Tejwaans Corporate Group ensures the process is as smooth and fast as possible by handling all documentation and follow-ups on your behalf.

Yes. Qatar's updated foreign investment laws now allow 100% foreign ownership in a wide range of sectors and all licensed free zones. However, certain strategic sectors such as oil & gas, banking, and insurance may still require a Qatari partner or have specific ownership restrictions. Our consultants will advise you on the best structure based on your business activity.

The standard documents required include:

• Valid passport copies of all shareholders and directors
• Proposed company name (3 options recommended)
• Description of business activity
• Shareholder structure and ownership percentages
• Proof of address (utility bill or bank statement)
• NOC letter (if applicant is employed in Qatar)

Additional documents may be required depending on the business type and licensing authority.

Qatar offers several business structures to suit different needs:

• Limited Liability Company (LLC): Most common for SMEs and foreign investors
• Branch Office: For foreign companies wishing to operate in Qatar
• Representative Office: For market research and promotion only
• Free Zone Company: 100% ownership, tax benefits, and easy setup
• Sole Proprietorship: For individual entrepreneurs (Qataris or eligible expats)

Our advisors help you select the right structure based on your goals, budget, and business activity.

For a standard LLC in Qatar, the minimum share capital is QAR 200,000. However, this varies depending on the business activity and licensing authority. Free zone companies may have lower or no minimum capital requirements. Some regulated sectors like financial services or contracting may require higher capital. We help you plan your capital structure correctly from the start.

Mainland companies can operate freely across Qatar, bid for government contracts, and work with local clients without restrictions. Free Zone companies benefit from 100% foreign ownership, tax exemptions, and simplified setup — but may face restrictions on trading directly in the local Qatar market. The best choice depends on your target market, business activity, and long-term growth plans. Our team provides a free consultation to help you decide.

Qatar levies a corporate income tax of 10% on profits of foreign-owned entities. However, Qatari-owned businesses and GCC-national owned entities are generally exempt. Free zone companies may enjoy full tax exemptions for a defined period. There is no personal income tax in Qatar. Our audit and taxation team can assist you with full tax planning and compliance to optimise your business finances.
