Schreibtisch für den Nahen Osten

Three pillars of success:
law, culture & strategy

Der Nahe Osten bietet eine Vielzahl von Geschäftsmöglichkeiten.
‍
Success depends on balancing legal requirements, strategic decisions, and cultural awareness.At International Legal Safeguard, we help you find that balance.

Gulf contracts are not one-size-fits-all

Jedes Land hat seinen eigenen spezifischen Rechtsrahmen für Handelsverträge, Ausschreibungen und Arbeitsrecht.

Local jurisdiction clauses are common, but their interpretation may be complex. Foreign companies should ensure legal clarity and be mindful of potential conflicts with Sharia principles or local practices.

Understanding these differences is key to avoiding costly surprises.

GCC employment rules — and country-specific

Das Kafala-System im GCC bindet Visa an Arbeitgeber, was zu Machtungleichgewichten führen kann. Die Arbeitgeber müssen vorsichtig vorgehen, um eine faire Behandlung und die Einhaltung gesetzlicher Vorschriften zu gewährleisten.

From employment contracts to dispute resolution and end-of-service benefits — understanding the specific requirements in each jurisdiction is essential for staying compliant and avoiding penalties.

We help you manage these differences with clear, tailored advice for every GCC country you do business in.

Internationales Recht

Arbeitsgesetze im GCC

Das Kafala-System im GCC bindet Visa an Arbeitgeber, was zu Machtungleichgewichten führen kann. Die Arbeitgeber müssen vorsichtig vorgehen, um eine faire Behandlung und die Einhaltung gesetzlicher Vorschriften zu gewährleisten.

Das Verständnis bestimmter Arbeitsgesetze ist von entscheidender Bedeutung. Die Nichteinhaltung der Streitbeilegung kann zu rechtlichen Konsequenzen führen. Die Verträge sollten den kulturellen Normen entsprechen und Arbeitszeiten, religiöse Gebräuche und Urlaubsgeld sorgfältig regeln.

Unsere Dienstleistungen

No local knowledge, no winning bid

Bestimmte öffentliche Ausschreibungen begünstigen lokale Unternehmen oder Joint Ventures, was ausländische Unternehmen vor Herausforderungen stellt. Für eine erfolgreiche Navigation müssen Partnerschaften in Betracht gezogen werden.

Many tenders favor local companies or joint ventures. Without knowing the local rules, even a strong bid can be disqualified.

At International Legal Safeguard, we help you meet local requirements, form strategic partnerships, and stay compliant — so your bid stands a real chance.

Bei International Legal Safeguard besteht unser Ansatz nicht nur aus einzelnen Dienstleistungen — es ist eine komplette Strategie, die entwickelt wurde, um Ihre Wettbewerbsfähigkeit im Nahen Osten zu verbessern, insbesondere in den Arabischen Emiraten, Katar, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman und Saudi-Arabien.

With our region-specific expertise and strategic approach, we help you reduce risk, save time, and move forward with confidence.

International contracts

Im Nahen Osten und insbesondere in den Ländern des Arabischen Golfs gehen Verträge über rechtliche Bestimmungen hinaus; sie beinhalten unausgesprochene gegenseitige Vereinbarungen, die in einem Geschäftskontext von entscheidender Bedeutung sind. Ein schlecht ausgearbeiteter Vertrag kann zu Missverständnissen, gescheiterten Verhandlungen und rechtlichen Problemen führen.

A contract that looks fine on paper can still fail in practice if it misses the local nuance. That can mean broken deals, misunderstandings, or even legal disputes.

At International Legal Safeguard, we help you avoid those risks. With region-specific expertise, we draft clear, effective contracts that align with both legal standards and local business culture — ensuring stronger partnerships and fewer surprises.
