Khaberni - Minister of Investment Dr. Tareq Abu Ghazaleh confirmed that the Ministry of Investment will spare no effort in following all issues that concern investors, facilitating procedures for them, and enhancing the investment environment in the Kingdom.

During the meeting, Dr. Abu Ghazaleh announced an agreement on a new mechanism for addressing issues faced by investors benefiting from the Investment Environment Law, related to the settlement of fixed assets entries, through cooperation and coordination with the General Customs Department.
Dr. Abu Ghazaleh explained that the new mechanism, which has come into effect, will contribute to accelerating the completion of transactions of exempted fixed assets entries and related procedures, highlighting that the Ministry continues its communication with investors to facilitate the obstacles they encounter in this regard, while the Customs Department undertakes the settlement procedures according to the approved mechanism.
He added that according to the new mechanism, there is a distinction between customs data before the year 2002, which are settled automatically without physical inspection or presenting the customs data, and data after the year 2002, which are also settled automatically, but with the necessity of presenting the customs data.
For his part, the Director-General of Customs, Major General Ahmed Al-Akkalik, emphasized the continuous work and coordination at all levels by the executive authorities and in cooperation with the private sector to provide the best services and facilities for investors, and to alleviate any burdens they might face.
