Change Company Type of CR

Bahrain is promoting investor-friendly policies, allowing 379 CR Activities for foreign investors without local partner, director, or authorized signatory requirements.

For other Gulf Community (GCC) nationals, Bahrain has approved 570 economic operations, enabling them to carry out these activities without the assistance of a local partner.

Bahrain and the US have been allies since 1971, working together to further their respective defense, geopolitical, and economic interests. Americans are allowed to participate in 557 CR activities in Bahrain without the need for local partners.

With a common location, market size, and industry concentration, Bahrain and Singapore have maintained strategic ties since 1978. Singaporeans are now able to perform 391 business activities in Bahrain without the need for local partners.

The economy of a nation benefits from foreign investment, but it can also unsettle local investors. Bahrain mandates that 23 significant commercial operations have at least 51% local ownership.

The Ministry of Industry and Commerce has updated its guidelines for CR Activities, allowing foreign investors to participate without a local partner, regardless of ownership proportion, even to 0.1%.
