        Legislative and Regulatory Aspects<\/h2>\n

        The legal regulation of a business in Algeria is protectionist in nature and a bit bureaucratized. Foreign businessmen are allowed to own up to 49% of a local company so it could preserve the Algerian tax residency. A local partner should own 51%+ of a company under any conditions.<\/p>\n

        However, the local government takes steps to make starting a business easier. Namely, the government has abolished compulsory statutory requirements for a company\u2019s share capital. Still, practically, it should be at least USD 1,000. At the same time, many registration nuances are not on the surface. Prifinance attorneys will help you tackle these bureaucratic difficulties.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

        \n
