Effortless CR Renewal and Comprehensive Business Compliance in the Kingdom of Bahrain

​Maintaining an active Commercial Registration (CR) is mandatory for every business operating in the Kingdom of Bahrain. Letting your CR expire, even briefly, can halt operations, incur penalties, or lead to the deletion of your business entity. Our specialized service ensures your Commercial Registration is renewed promptly, keeping you fully compliant with the Ministry of Industry, Commerce, and Tourism (MOICT) regulations. We handle the entire process, from initial compliance checks to the final retrieval of your renewed CR certificate, allowing you to focus purely on your core business activities.

 

Our Comprehensive Service Offering

We provide end-to-end management for your company's official standing, covering both routine renewals and complex amendments:

• Timely CR Renewal: We manage the annual renewal process for your Commercial Registration and all associated commercial activities, ensuring submission is completed well before the expiry date to avoid late fees or operational disruption.

• CR Amendment Services: Regulations are constantly evolving. We assist with necessary amendments that often accompany renewal, including updating contact details, official business addresses, and shareholder information. Furthermore, we offer support for all required amendments at any time, such as adding or removing partners, changing commercial activities, altering the company name or type, or updating the official address or bank account details, among others.

• Compliance Resolution & Violation Clearance: We proactively identify and resolve any underlying compliance issues, such as discrepancies in Ultimate Beneficial Ownership (UBO) registration, failure to submit required financial reports, or address/signboard violations. We clear these roadblocks to guarantee a successful renewal.

 

Key Requirements for a Successful Renewal

A seamless CR renewal hinges on complete compliance with MOICT requirements. Before submission, we ensure your business satisfies the following critical prerequisites:

• Financial Reporting Submission: Mandatory submission of Audited Financial Statements via the Sijilat portal, if required by your company structure and activities.

• Ultimate Beneficial Ownership (UBO) Update: Verification and updating of your company’s UBO information to meet current Bahraini disclosure regulations.

• Address and Details Verification: Confirmation that the officially registered business address is current and accurately reflected, including compliance with physical signage requirements.

• Clearance of Outstanding Issues: Resolution of any existing administrative penalties or pending compliance issues linked to your CR.

 

Understanding Government Fees

The official government fees for CR renewal in Bahrain are standardized, though the total cost can vary based on the number of commercial activities you hold. The core annual government fees generally include:

• Commercial Registration (CR) Renewal Fee: BHD 50.00 (This is the mandatory fee for the CR itself.)

• Commercial Activity Renewal Fee: BHD 100.00 (Covers up to three commercial activities.)

• Bahrain Chamber of Commerce & Industry (BCCI) Fee: BHD 16.00 (This is the annual registration fee.)

• Estimated Minimum Total: BHD 166.00 (This estimate does not include fees for additional activities—BHD 100 each—or our professional service fees.)

We will provide a transparent and detailed breakdown of all applicable government and service fees specific to your company's profile.
