What we analyse before you decide
Whether the country fits
We compare your activity, customers and current structure with the alternatives: staying in Spain, setting up a subsidiary in Italy, or working with an EOR.
The right legal form
We explain which legal form fits —SRL / SRLS and its alternatives — and what each one means for liability, shareholders and capital.
Real taxation, not brochures
Corporate tax, VAT and withholding applied to your specific case, plus the double taxation treaty with Spain and which obligations stay here.
Total and recurring cost
Entry cost versus the annual cost of maintaining the structure: accounting, local obligations and administration. So you decide with the full number.
Obligations and calendar
What has to be filed every year, with which deadlines, and what happens if a month gets complicated. Plus an estimated calendar from your decision to the first invoice.
Risks and the fine print
Registered office, tresidency, "tax havens" that are not, and mistakes that cost dearly. We also tell you when Italy is NOT for you.

How we work
We analyse your case
A 20-minute call with a local advisor to understand your activity, shareholders, customers and goals. Free and with no commitment.
You get a written plan
Recommended legal form, full costs, calendar and annual obligations. A document you can compare against other options.
Ongoing support with a local advisor
If you decide to move forward, you have a contact in Italy who speaks your language for taxation, accounting and day-to-day obligations.
Questions before deciding
It depends on where your customers are, how much you invoice and how long you plan to keep the structure. In the call we review it with your numbers and tell you whether Italy adds anything or whether another route suits you better.
As a reference: corporate tax IRES 24% and VAT IVA 22%. But the real impact depends on your activity, the double taxation treaty and where the profit is generated. We calculate it on your case.
Besides the entry cost, every structure has an annual cost for accounting, local obligations and administration. We give you the full figure in writing before you decide anything.
In most cases yes, and the process can be handled 100% online. In the call we explain what requires presence or signature and which alternatives exist to avoid it.
