Offshore Costa Rica

Costa Rica: Offshore for Non-Residents

Some of the most attractive countries for entrepreneurs are those characterized by stability in various areas, particularly economic, political, and social. Additional advantages include favorable conditions such as taxation benefits. All this is available to business owners who decide to register an offshore company in Costa Rica.

This country has a favorable business climate, but entrepreneurs should be aware of certain features. For example, Costa Rica now has a public register of beneficial owners. Because of this, shareholders cannot rely on confidentiality, even if the company is offshore and conducts business outside the country.

Steps

01

Choosing a Name for the Future Company in Costa Rica

The client must provide 3 possible names for the company. We will check their availability for registration and propose available options for the final choice. If all three are taken, we will request additional options. Submitting 3 names is not mandatory but will speed up the verification process.

02

Preparing Documents

The client must prepare personal documents for company registration. This can be done in parallel with the first stage. The exact list of documents depends on the specifics of the future company. Usually, a copy of the passport, proof of address of participants, and letters of recommendation are required.

03

Preparing Registration Forms

Based on the data provided by the client, a package of documents is prepared for submission to the Registry.

04

Submitting Documents for Registration

The collected package of documents is submitted to the Registry. After this, the registrar processes the documents and the company is entered into the Registry database.

05

Receiving Confirmation of Company Registration

Once the company is entered into the Registry, its registration details can be viewed, and if necessary, certified copies of the statutory documents can be ordered. Our specialists will assist with all necessary certifications (notarization, apostille) and translations into other languages if required.

What Advantages Does a Company in Costa Rica Have

If you decide to open an offshore company, Costa Rica is a good option for several reasons. For example, a company may have no residents at all, and there are no legislative restrictions for such firms.

However, entrepreneurs should keep in mind that to open a bank account in this country, there must be a resident in the company structure.

Another advantage of Costa Rica is its economic performance. The country not only quickly stabilized its economy after the global crisis but also ensured its growth. Today, international investors are interested in investing in Costa Rica, and the level of foreign investment attraction is the highest in Latin America.

Offshore companies in Costa Rica are called that for a reason: they do not pay taxes while operating. This is due to the territorial taxation system. Taxes are paid only on income earned within Costa Rica.

This is exactly what attracts non-resident entrepreneurs. They can register a company, conduct trade outside the jurisdiction, and significantly reduce the tax burden on their business. If you would like additional legal advice on this matter, contact our specialists.

What Types of Offshore Companies Can Be Opened in Costa Rica

When setting up a company, entrepreneurs often choose Sociedad Limitada — a Limited Liability Company (LLC). In such companies:

  • shareholders’ liability is limited to their contributions to the share capital;
  • there must be at least one director and at least two shareholders;
  • shares are not used; instead, quotas are applied.

If you are interested in ready-made offshore companies in Costa Rica, you can choose an LLC or any other legal form, such as an SAA (public joint-stock company), among others.

Ready-Made Offshore Companies in Costa Rica

Entrepreneurs can either register a company from scratch or purchase an already established business. In the second case, you can count on a firm that has already gone through all bureaucratic procedures, registration, and has no liabilities to third parties. Buying a ready-made company saves a lot of time and effort, which can instead be directed toward developing your business and making profits.

If you are interested in ready-made offshore companies in Costa Rica, contact our specialists and submit a request. We will quickly find the best option tailored to your needs and preferences.

We also provide full support at every stage of the process, and if you decide to open a new company, we will handle all accompanying procedures, prepare the documents, and submit them to the regulatory authorities of Costa Rica.
