BaghdadiLaw handles foreign investment licence applications and coordinates company requirements with the relevant authorities. Founded in 1957, our firm has handled more than 20,000 cases and legal consultations across its practice. Omar Al-Baghdadi leads the team with over 30 years of legal experience.
BaghdadiLaw brings nearly seven decades of legal practice, since its founding in 1957, to foreign investment licensing, with specialised knowledge connecting ownership structure, actual activities, documents and authority to the application requirements. An overseas investor planning a Syrian project needs to identify the activity, project company, site and approvals before assuming that a general investment authorisation permits operation. Company registration and investment eligibility answer different questions.
Syria’s Investment Law 18/2021 has subsequent amendments, including Decree 114/2025, and implementing instructions announced in November 2025. Eligibility must be assessed against that amended framework and the project’s sector, not the original 2021 text alone. Distinguish a project description from an approved activity. Identify approvals already issued, applications pending and assumptions that have not been confirmed by a competent body.
We agree the work your matter needs: Adjust the activity or site, complete the approval file or defer a commitment pending a material approval. The business plan should reflect dependencies rather than an assumed approval date. The deliverable is agreed for your file: A project approval map, eligibility questions and a prioritised submission-document checklist.

Service content updated:
No. Map the project’s investment approval and the permissions required for its actual activity and location. A registered company can still have unresolved operating, land-use or sector conditions.
Do not include an incentive in the financial model until its current eligibility and applicable conditions have been checked.
List each activity and its approvals separately; a combined commercial plan may involve different sector requirements.
