The costarican legislation allows both nationals and non-nationals (residents or non-residents) to constitute and own corporations so that they may engage in any licit activities.
In accordance with article 17 of the Commercial Code, there are four types of mercantile entities:
- Anonymous Society (S.A.),
- Limited Liability (S.R.L or LTDA),
- Commandite or limited partnership (S.E.S.)
- General partnership (S.E.C.)
Usually, the Anonymous Society and the Limited Liability are the most used corporations, and our corporate department offers you the possibility of purchasing a pre-constituted company or begin the incorporation process from scratch.
The following list includes the main corporate support services we provide in conjunction with the described incorporation service:
- By law modifications.
- Appointment and revoking of officers and legal representatives and the granting of powers of attorney (special, general and unlimited).
- Appointment of the company´s resident agent.
- Legalization and reposition of corporate books.
- Custody of files, documents and corporate books.
- Corporate Due Diligence
- General and specific advice on the celebration and recording of general shareholders and/or board of directors assemblies.
