Representative Office Registration in Pakistan

Introduction

Javid Law Associates provides specialized advisory for foreign corporations looking to establish a presence in Pakistan via a Representative Office. This structure allows global firms to conduct market research and liaise with local partners without engaging in direct commercial activities. We manage the complex interface with the Board of Investment and other statutory bodies to ensure a seamless entry.

Regulatory Framework

Establishing an office requires adherence to the Board of Investment (BOI) policies under the Companies Act, 2017. Our firm ensures that your registration complies with SECP guidelines and FBR tax obligations, including NTN Registration Pakistan and Sales Tax status. We navigate the nuances of foreign exchange controls monitored by the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP).
