Strategic Market Entry for Foreign Entrepreneurs
Javid Law Associates provides end-to-end corporate legal services for foreign nationals and international corporations looking to establish a footprint in Pakistan. Navigating the SECP company registration process requires precise documentation and compliance with local corporate law. Our firm ensures your business is structured correctly, whether you are forming a Private Limited company or an international branch office.
Regulatory Landscape
Foreign investment is governed by the Companies Act, 2017, and managed under the oversight of the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP). We assist with the complete workflow, from name reservation and Memorandum of Association drafting to securing the Certificate of Incorporation. Beyond the SECP, we navigate FBR mandates for NTN and ST registration to ensure your tax profile is clean from inception.
