Business advisory in Spain
for foreign investors

Yes, there are no nationality restrictions. You'll need a NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero) and a Spanish bank account. We handle both as part of the incorporation process. The whole thing typically takes two to four weeks.

An autónomo is simpler and cheaper to set up, but gives you no separation between personal and business liability. An SL costs more to incorporate and has higher administrative overhead, but protects your personal assets and is more efficient for larger turnover or multiple shareholders. The right answer depends on your situation: that's what the first consultation is for.

No. With a notarised power of attorney, we manage the full process remotely. The only step that sometimes requires your presence is opening a corporate bank account — though this is also possible remotely with some banks.

The main ones are Impuesto sobre Sociedades (25% on annual profits for standard companies; 23% for businesses under €10M turnover; 15% for newly incorporated companies in their first two profitable years), IVA (VAT, 21% standard rate, filed quarterly), and social security contributions for any employees. We manage all of it.

Yes — we draft bilingual contracts in English and Spanish where required. The Spanish version is the legally operative one, but you receive both so you understand exactly what you're signing.

Total costs — notary, Mercantile Registry and our fees — typically range between €1,500 and €3,500 depending on complexity. We give you a fixed quote before starting. No surprises.

For a standard SL, the process takes between two and four weeks from the moment we have everything in place: NIE, bank account, signed power of attorney and agreed articles of association. The main variable is the notary and Mercantile Registry turnaround. We tell you at the start what to expect and flag anything that might cause a delay before it does.
