How we can help
Choosing a structure and location
Our overseas legal consultants help assess the appropriate company structure, proposed ownership and business location. They review the activity, applicable foreign-investment requirements and the authorities involved before advising on the formation route.
Company formation and licensing
Coordinated support with incorporation documents, commercial registration through the Oman Business Platform and the investment or activity licences required for the proposed business. Local legal advice and submissions are handled by appropriately qualified and authorised advisers in Oman.
Shareholders, joint ventures and governance
Support with ownership arrangements, joint ventures, shareholders’ agreements, decision-making and subsequent changes to the business. Local-law documents are prepared or reviewed by the overseas advisers; we handle any separately agreed English-law agreements.
Connecting the business with the UK
Balaghi & Rose can advise on related English-law contracts, UK corporate arrangements and commercial disputes. We coordinate with our overseas consultants so that responsibilities and documents fit together across the jurisdictions.

Common questions
Who provides the local legal advice?
Appropriately qualified and authorised overseas advisers provide the Oman legal advice and local formation work. Balaghi & Rose coordinates the matter and handles any agreed English-law work. We confirm the advisers, their roles and the arrangements for instruction before work begins.
Can every business have the same ownership and licence arrangements?
No. Ownership, permitted activities and approval requirements depend on the proposed business and the applicable rules. Our overseas advisers assess the particular structure and activity rather than assuming a single route suits every investor.
Does company formation include a visa or bank account?
Not automatically. Residence, banking, tax registration and sector-specific permissions may require separate applications or advice. Timing and approval depend on the relevant authority or institution; the agreed scope will identify any additional work.
