WHY SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT CONTRACTS ARE IMPORTANT

Here are some legal tips you need to know about Startups in Spain:

Establish an appropriate legal form for startups in Spain

  • A limited company
  • Civil society
  • Cooperative society
  • Simply the individual entrepreneur as a natural person.

The choice of legal form is a first decision that must be taken considering factors such as the purpose to be achieved with the new company, the capital available or the participation of the partners.

Make sure you carry out the registration formalities

It is important to know which documents are necessary to be able to register the company in the Spanish Mercantile Register.

Have a good tax system

Startups in Spain must also comply with their tax obligations. Failure to comply can have bad consequences.

Establish social agreements
