Common questions
Is Invest Cambodia a law firm?
No. We are an independent market-entry consultancy. Legal, tax and accounting work is carried out by licensed Cambodian professionals, whom we brief and coordinate.
Can a foreign company own 100% of a Cambodian company?
In most sectors a Cambodian limited company can be foreign-owned, but a company that owns land must be at least 51% Cambodian-owned and some activities are restricted. Read our guide on setting up a company for the detail and sources.
What is a Qualified Investment Project?
A project registered with the Council for the Development of Cambodia under the 2021 Law on Investment that qualifies for incentives. The CDC states a 20 working day timeline for issuing the registration certificate to eligible projects.
Do you guarantee approvals, sales or returns?
No. Authorities make approval decisions and markets move. We give you evidence, introductions and coordination so you can decide with clear information.
Is the first consultation free?
Yes. The first conversation is free and without obligation. If there is a fit, we send a written proposal with scope, timeline and fees before any work starts.
