Reply within two business daysFixed fee in writing before work beginsNDA on request

Entering Pakistan involves federal and provincial authorities, sector regulators, tax registrations and foreign exchange rules, and the order in which they apply is rarely clear from outside the country.

We assess the market opportunity, compare the realistic entry options (subsidiary, branch, liaison office, local partner or distributor), map every authority and registration that applies, and set out a sequenced roadmap with indicative timelines and the documents each step requires.

What’s included

  • Market size, structure and principal players
  • Comparison of entry structures and their regulatory consequences
  • Map of federal, provincial and sector authorities that apply
  • Sequenced roadmap of registrations, licences and approvals
  • Location comparison across provinces and special economic zones where relevant
  • Pending policy changes that affect timing or risk

Questions

Can you help us choose between a subsidiary and a branch office?

Yes. We set out the regulatory, tax and operational consequences of each option for your activity, so that you and your legal advisers can decide on a sound basis.

Do you cover special economic zones?

Yes. Where relevant, the roadmap compares locations, including special economic zones and the incentives and conditions attached to them.
