Set up
This phase shows the mechanics. Registration may be quick when documents are ready, but for foreign-owned files, banking, apostille, and KYC often shape the real timeline.
01
4-week setup timeline
The four-week view anchors expectations. Real timing depends on documents, banks, and sector conditions, and that uncertainty is stated upfront.
Week 1 - Align
Initial consultation, investment assessment, and structure recommendation.
Week 2 - File
Document preparation, notary/translation checks, and trade registry filing.
Week 3 - Set up
Tax, social security, banking, and accounting infrastructure.
Week 4 - Launch
Operational readiness, payroll/compliance checks, and first reporting cycle.
02
Company Formation & Registration
Every step is tagged as remote, local filing, or may require a visit so the investor knows when physical presence may matter.
Determine structure
Entity type and shareholder decisions can usually be clarified remotely.
Incorporation documents
Articles and shareholder documents can be prepared remotely; foreign documents are checked for translation and apostille.
Trade registry
Registration filing and announcement are handled through local filing.
Tax office
Tax registration and opening controls are completed as part of the local filing process.
Social security
Employer registration and payroll infrastructure are set up through local filing steps.
Bank account
During KYC, capital, and account opening, the bank may request a physical meeting or additional documents.
Accounting infrastructure
Chart of accounts, document flow, and reporting discipline can be set up remotely.
E-invoice / e-ledger
Electronic document and ledger transition checks can be followed remotely.
Operational launch
The first month's filing and document cycle is started through remote coordination.
03
Banking & Financial Operations
Banking is often the biggest friction point for foreign investors. We plan KYC and capital flows realistically.
Bank account coordination
We organize bank file and meeting preparation.
Capital guidance
We explain the financial effect of capital commitment and payment timing.
Financial documents
We list documents banks and compliance teams may request.
KYC preparation
We make ownership, source-of-funds, and activity explanations consistent.
International transfers
We monitor incoming capital and group-payment flows.
Profit repatriation route
We discuss distribution, withholding, and treaty effects before operations begin.
04
Payroll & Employment Advisory
Local hiring and bringing foreign managers or employees are separate tracks. Work permits, payroll, and social security should be planned early.
Local hires
- Payroll setup
- Social security obligations
- Employee files
- Monthly reporting
Expat hires
- Work permit application
- Residence coordination
- Expat payroll and tax
- Cross-border social security impact
Official guidance states that duly completed work permit applications are reviewed within 30 days.
