Company Registration in Argentina. Service offer

Argentina has several types of entities for doing business, the most popular of which are the following: Sociedad anónima (S.A.), Sociedad anónima unipersonal (S.A.U.) и Sociedad de responsabilidad limitada (S.R.L.).

Important

In the case of S.A. and S.A.U., the company’s share capital must be at least ARS 100 000 and divided into shares.

An in-house auditor may be required not only for S.A.U., but for S.A. as well if the company’s capital exceeds ARS 5 000 000.

The capital must be proportionate to the declared business activities that the company is going to carry out. 25% of the capital is payable upon incorporation and the rest within 2 years.

In any type of company, the majority of directors must be residents of Argentina.

The incorporation of a company takes approximately 2 months (which includes the receipt of original corporate documents).

Taxation

In Argentina, resident legal entities are subject to corporate income tax on their worldwide income. After the tax reform, the following rates apply effective 1 January 2021:

taxable income from ARS 0 to ARS 5 000 000 (~ USD 5 300) => 25%;

taxable income from ARS 5 000 000 to ARS 50 000 000 (~ USD 53 000) => ARS 1 250 000 (~ USD 1300) + 30% of the amount exceeding ARS 5 000 000;

taxable income over ARS 50 000 000 => ARS 14 750 000 (~ USD 15 600) + 35% of the amount exceeding ARS 50 000 000.
The basic VAT rate in Argentina is 21%.
