Common questions

Everything you need to know before getting started.

What is a Spanish SL company? +
A Sociedad Limitada (SL) is Spain's private limited company — the most common structure for foreign-owned businesses. Shareholders are protected from company debts, and 100% foreign ownership is permitted. An SL may be incorporated with share capital from €1, though statutory safeguards apply while the company's share capital remains below €3,000. The general corporate income tax rate is 25%; qualifying newly created companies may benefit from 15% for their first two profitable tax periods, subject to statutory eligibility requirements.
Can I form an SL without visiting Spain? +
Many formation steps can be completed remotely via a notarised Power of Attorney. The PoA must be notarised in your country, apostilled, and translated into Spanish. Depending on the PoA method, bank requirements, and your jurisdiction, some steps — such as bank account opening — may still require personal attendance or a visit.
How long does company formation take? +
Once we have received all necessary documentation from you, the usual timeline for SL incorporation is 3–10 days. You will need to either attend a Notary in person or grant us a Power of Attorney to sign on your behalf.
Are government fees included in the professional fee? +
Formation-related notary and registry costs are included in the standard formation offer where share capital does not exceed €3,000. Government and third-party costs outside this scope — including document translations, apostilles, and additional registry fees — are quoted separately before you commit. Share capital (from €1, with statutory safeguards below €3,000) is deposited into the corporate bank account and remains available for company use — it is not a fee.
What visa lets me live in Spain while working remotely? +
The Digital Nomad Visa (Visado para Teletrabajadores Internacionales), introduced in 2023 under Spain's Start-Up Law. It allows non-EU nationals to reside in Spain while working remotely for foreign employers or clients. Professional fee is €2,295 plus €450 per additional family member.
Can I hire staff in Spain as a foreign company? +
Yes. Through our Non-Resident Employer Registration service, we register your foreign company as a Spanish employer (NIF + Social Security CCC) so you can legally hire and pay employees in Spain without forming a full Spanish subsidiary. Setup from €1,895.
