The main role of IDAL is promote and encourage investment in Lebanon. It is a non-profit government institution, reporting to the Presidency of the Council of Ministers whose main aim is to attract, facilitate, and retain investments in the country. Our current strategy focuses on attracting investments to Lebanon’s potential sectors, including: industry, agriculture, agro-industry, tourism, information technology, technology, telecommunication and media.
IDAL does not fund investment projects, however, it provides financial incentives to those projects that meet specific eligibility criteria. These financial incentives might include exemption from tax breaks for up to 10 years, 50% reduction on work and residence permit fees, and free land registration. To find out if your project is eligible to benefit from those incentives please check our "Investment Incentives" page.
