Trading Licensing
The trading license is granted by the Department of Industry and Trade and in some special cases, an approval from the Ministry of Industry and Trade can be required.
Post Licensing
Introducing Post Licensing
The operations of the company can start when its main licenses including the Enterprise Registration Certificate (ERC) and the Investment Registration Certificate (IRC) have been granted or adjusted. However, some business sectors can be subject to further sub-licensing requirements or some procedures can be required during the operations of the company. Obtaining the required sub-licenses is mandatory before operating the related business sectors to avoid any liability, administrative fines or even the suspension of the company.
