EXPERTISE

Explore Our Capabilities

We focus on the matters where Bhutanese law, regulation and commercial reality meet, and where clients need a clear answer they can act on.

Bhutan Corporate, Commercial and Regulatory Advisory

We advise start-ups, Bhutanese businesses, foreign investors and multinational groups on company incorporation, FDI approvals, licensing, mergers and acquisitions, commercial contracts, fintech and digital assets, financial services, data protection, technology, telecommunications, energy and hydropower, employment, tax and regulatory compliance.

Litigation & Dispute Resolution Services

Our litigators represent clients at every level of the Bhutanese judiciary in civil, criminal, commercial and constitutional matters. For clients who prefer a private forum, we also act in arbitration and mediation.

Due Diligence, Legal Audits & Risk Management in Bhutan

We carry out legal due diligence and legal audits for businesses and investors in Bhutan, covering corporate structure, licences and regulatory standing, contracts, tax obligations and litigation history, so that risks are identified before a decision is made, not after.

Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) & Market Entry Legal Advisory

We guide foreign investors into Bhutan: eligibility under the FDI Rules and Regulations 2025, investment structuring, approvals and licensing, and the cross-border rules that apply once the business is operating.
