We incorporate your Chilean entity and act as your resident legal representative, so you can operate in Chile without relocating anyone.
Most European companies need both: a Chilean entity and someone in Chile who is legally authorised to act for it.
We advise on the right vehicle and handle the full incorporation.
Foreign shareholders without a Chilean domicile need a representative in Chile. We fill that role.
Timelines depend mainly on how quickly documents are apostilled in your country and on the bank's onboarding.
We review your plans for Chile and recommend a structure. You receive a fixed-fee proposal.
We send you a checklist and draft powers of attorney. You sign and apostille them locally; Chile is a party to the Hague Apostille Convention.
We incorporate the entity in Chile and complete the registration formalities.
We obtain the RUT and file the start of activities with the SII, acting as your legal representative.
We support the bank account opening and remain your representative in Chile for as long as you need.

Usually not. The incorporation can be carried out through apostilled powers of attorney granted in your country.
In general, yes. Chile does not impose general foreign-ownership limits, although some regulated sectors have specific rules we review at the outset.
An SpA is the most common choice for foreign investors because it allows a single shareholder and flexible bylaws. A branch may suit companies that want to operate directly under their parent's name. We recommend one after the consultation.
Foreign shareholders and directors without a Chilean domicile must appoint a representative in Chile to deal with the tax authority and receive official notices.
It varies with each country's apostille process and the bank's onboarding. We give you an estimated timeline in the proposal.
We reply within one business day with next steps and a fee proposal.
