A Legal Guide for International Investors

For international investors, the legal process usually proceeds along three interconnected axes: corporate structure, asset acquisition and personal status (residence / work permit). Planning these axes together prevents inconsistencies that may arise later.

Setting Up the Corporate Structure

The sector of investment, profit repatriation plans and future admission of partners all influence the choice of company type and the provisions of the articles of association.

Permit and Status Processes

• Selecting the residence permit type according to the investment plan
• Assessing the work permit requirement
• Checking the criteria for citizenship by investment

This guide is for general information and every investor’s situation is unique. A file-specific assessment is recommended before starting the process.
