Notes to the legal Form

Under the Bahraini Commercial Companies Law a WLL may be formed by a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 50 natural or legal persons, whose liability is limited to their shares in the company’s capital. The minimum amount of paid-up capital required is BD 10,000. Contributions to capital may be made in cash of kind. With a normal renewable term of 25 years, equal shares must amount to at least BD 50 each. Public shares are not permitted nor is the negotiation of warrants.
