Firmengründung in Paraguay

TABELLE HORIZONTAL SCROLLEN

Wichtig: Das Recht eines Nichtansässigen, Eigentümer des Unternehmens zu sein, berechtigt nicht automatisch dazu, in diesem Land zu leben, zu arbeiten oder das Unternehmen von dort aus zu führen. Einwanderungsstatus, Arbeitserlaubnis, wirtschaftliche Substanz, Ort der tatsächlichen Geschäftsleitung und Steueransässigkeit werden gesondert geprüft.

• —Services, trade, light industry and regional operations with a genuine Paraguayan business plan.
• —A single-shareholder or multi-shareholder company through an EAS with limited liability and registered shares.
• —A closely held partner structure through an S.R.L. where quota governance is preferable to EAS shares.

• —An Empresa por Acciones Simplificadas (EAS), with one or more individual/legal-person shareholders, registered shares, limited liability and a SUACE-only incorporation workflow.
• —A Sociedad de Responsabilidad Limitada (S.R.L.), a traditional quota-based company usually formed by public deed and registered through the conventional route.
• —A Sociedad Anónima (S.A.), a traditional share corporation for larger or more formal governance structures.
• —A branch of a foreign company, the registered presence of an existing overseas entity with local representation.

• —An EAS can have one or more individual or corporate participants and has no general minimum or maximum initial capital; declared capital should be coherent with operating expenses.
• —EAS registration is processed only through SUACE. The principal legal representative accesses the system with Paraguayan electronic identity and must be Paraguayan or a foreigner holding Paraguayan ID.
• —A foreign person without permanent residence may be a shareholder but, under the published document rules, cannot occupy the EAS governance/administration role without the required local status.
• —A third-party representative is authorised by a sufficient special power; a foreign power is apostilled/legalised and translated into Spanish by an eligible translator.
• —SUACE coordinates legal-person, beneficial-owner, RUC and, where triggered, employer registrations; licences and sector approvals remain activity-specific.

• —A passport or other acceptable ID for every founder, director, manager, signatory and ultimate beneficial owner (UBO).
• —Proof of residential address and tax residence; the registry, notary, representative, bank or other reviewer sets the document-validity period.
• —A transparent ownership chart through to natural persons and, for a corporate participant, registry documents, good standing and a corporate resolution approving the investment.
• —A description of the product, markets, counterparties, expected turnover, source of funds and source of wealth, supported by evidence.
• —The name, Paraguayan domicile, activity, duration, capital and share subscriptions, participants, governance, legal representative and standard/bespoke statutes.
• —For a local representative: valid Paraguayan ID, electronic identity, acceptance/appointment and special authority if acting for shareholders.
• —For a non-resident individual: passport/ID and an apostilled power; for a foreign company: formation documents, tax ID, corporate resolution, ownership documents and an apostilled power, all translated where needed.
• —Beneficial-owner, RUC, employer and activity data plus capital/source-of-funds evidence proportionate to the business.

1. 01Select an EAS, S.R.L., S.A. or branch after reviewing activity, shareholders, governance, residence and licensing.
2. 02For an EAS, appoint an eligible principal legal representative and prepare standard/bespoke statutes, capital and UBO data; for a non-resident, complete the power of attorney/apostille/translation.
3. 03The representative submits the single SUACE application and closes identity/RUC steps requested by participating agencies; an S.R.L. follows its notarial/registry route.
4. 04Complete DNIT tax/e-invoicing, beneficial-owner/legal-structure records, IPS/MTESS employer setup and municipal/sector licences as triggered.
5. 05Banking begins after formation certificates, RUC, representative authority, UBO/KYC and Paraguay operating evidence are ready.

• —An EAS is taxed as a legal person according to its activity and income; DNIT setup determines business-income tax, VAT, withholding, invoicing and return obligations.
• —Dividends, foreign owners, cross-border services, imports/exports and related parties require separate withholding, customs, transfer-pricing and treaty review where triggered.
• —A Paraguayan accountant confirms live rates, regimes, deadlines and document retention; incorporation alone grants no tax holiday or residence benefit.

Allgemeiner Überblick, keine individuelle Steuer- oder Rechtsberatung. Die Vorschriften werden vor der Einreichung erneut geprüft.

• —A bank reviews formation/RUC certificates, statutes, the legal representative and signatories, ownership through to UBOs, source of funds/wealth and tax/activity status.
• —A foreign-owned EAS needs a credible Paraguay rationale, address/contact, contracts or pipeline, expected transaction countries/currencies and a traceable capital route.
• —The bank may require the Paraguayan representative/signatory to attend and may request shareholder participation; an EAS certificate does not guarantee onboarding.

• —Maintain accounting and tax records, the share register, corporate resolutions and supporting invoices/contracts.
• —File DNIT tax, VAT, withholding and information returns and maintain electronic invoicing under the assigned regime.
• —Maintain and update the legal-person/legal-structure and ultimate-beneficial-owner records through the required government platform.
• —Keep legal-representative authority, address, capital and ownership current; complete IPS/MTESS payroll and municipal/sector renewals where applicable.

• —The online EAS route still depends on a principal legal representative with Paraguayan electronic identity; a foreign shareholder without local ID cannot simply self-file worldwide.
• —The published zero-cost claim concerns the government formation workflow with standard statutes, not professional representation, powers of attorney, apostille, translation, address, accounting, licensing or banking.
• —Incorporation does not conceal ownership or disapply AML/KYC. The registry, tax authority, local professional and financial institutions may obtain and verify UBO information.
• —The place of incorporation does not automatically determine tax residence. Effective management, permanent establishment, CFC, withholding and the owners' personal residence require separate analysis.
• —Company registration does not grant a regulated-activity licence, immigration status or a bank account.

• —Coordination of an eligible Paraguayan representative, SUACE/EAS, the foreign power of attorney, DNIT RUC, UBO/legal-structure records and accounting hand-off.
• —Comparison of entity form, ownership structure, tax links and local-substance requirements before filing.
• —Coordination of the notary or local representative, power of attorney, translations, apostille and the complete corporate file.
• —Preparation of a bank-ready KYB data room and responses to legitimate compliance requests; approval and timing remain with the bank or payment institution.
• —Local-accountant hand-off and a calendar covering tax, UBO, registry, employment and licensing obligations.
