Création à distance pour résidents et non-résidents
Filing is electronic, but a Costa Rican notary submits it based on a public deed; foreign founders generally act through an approved power of attorney.
Pour un résident
- Resident founders execute the deed locally/through a permitted digital method and complete tax, RTBF and local permits.
- A resident setup still requires notarial filing for covered new S.A./S.R.L. formations.
Pour un non-résident
- A non-resident may participate through a power of attorney subject to notary approval, apostille/legalisation and Spanish translation.
- Current domicile, electronic-contact/resident-notification-agent and local-representative rules are checked on the filing date.
Important : le droit d'un non-résident de détenir la société ne lui confère pas automatiquement le droit de vivre, de travailler ou de la gérer depuis ce pays. L'immigration, le permis de travail, la substance, le lieu de direction effective et la résidence fiscale sont évalués séparément.
LIMITES DE LA PROCÉDURE À DISTANCE
- This is assisted electronic filing, not a direct foreign-client self-service portal.
- Tax, RTBF, municipal/sector licensing and banking remain separate from registry inscription.
Préparation au KYC/KYB et à l'entrée en relation bancaire
PRÉPARATION / DOSSIER COHÉRENT
Nous ne contournons pas les contrôles de conformité. Nous préparons à l'avance un dossier cohérent afin de limiter les échanges évitables et les téléchargements répétés des mêmes documents.
Pré-vérification
- The notary pre-check covers power-of-attorney authority, foreign documents, UBOs, capital and live contact/address requirements.
- Before filing, we pre-check IDs, proof of address, tax residence, the UBO chart, source of funds/source of wealth and translations.
- We reconcile names, addresses, dates, ownership, signatures and authority across forms to reduce returns and repeat KYC/KYB requests.
- We prepare a verifiable description of the activity, markets, counterparties, expected flows and the commercial rationale for the jurisdiction.
Dossier prêt pour la banque
- The bank application follows tax/RTBF/personería setup and documented Costa Rica operating rationale.
- We match the company profile to the selected bank or EMI's published and confirmed eligibility criteria before applying.
- We assemble one data room covering corporate documents, UBO/KYC, website, contracts, invoices, source of funds and the payment-flow map.
- We help address legitimate compliance questions but do not promise an expedited bypass of checks, a guaranteed account or a fixed onboarding time.
Le délai dépend de l'exhaustivité des données, du risque de l'activité et de la charge du prestataire. CrystalCore ne peut garantir ni l'ouverture d'un compte, ni le délai de décision, ni l'approbation d'une banque ou d'un EMI en particulier.
À qui cela convient
- Operating subsidiaries with Costa Rican customers, a team, premises, tourism, services or trade.
- A closely held owner-managed business through a quota-based S.R.L.
- A share-based investment or group structure through an S.A. with appropriate governance and tax planning.
Principales formes de société

- A Sociedad Anónima (S.A.), a share corporation with a board/officeholders and formal corporate governance.
- A branch of a foreign company, the registered branch of an existing overseas entity.
- A civil, general or limited partnership, specialist alternatives that are rarely the default for a scalable commercial business.
Associés, dirigeants et adresse
- An S.A./S.R.L. is formed by public deed before a Costa Rican notary; a new cash/securities-capital filing is submitted electronically through CrearEmpresa/TramiteYa.
- Foreign founders may act through an approved power of attorney; the notary confirms apostille/legalisation, translation and appearance method.
- The entity states a Costa Rican domicile/contact, capital in a permitted currency, shareholders/quotaholders and administration/representation.
- Resident-agent notification rules are transitioning to an electronic-address regime under Law 10597; the notary confirms the current filing-date requirement.
- The company registers for tax/activity, files the annual RTBF beneficial-owner declaration and obtains municipal/sector permits before applicable operations.
Documents et KYC
- 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 registrar, agent, 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 authorised resolutions.
- A description of the product, markets, counterparties, expected turnover, source of funds and source of wealth, supported by evidence.
- The name, Costa Rican domicile/electronic contact, purpose, duration, capital, shares/quotas, founders and board/managers/representatives.
- The public deed, electronic registry form, notarial testimony and initial corporate books/appointments.
- Apostilled foreign ID/entity/authority documents and Spanish translation; tax, RTBF and address/activity evidence.
- Municipal patent, health/tourism/environmental/sector and CCSS/payroll documents where the activity requires them.
Étapes de création
- Select an S.R.L., S.A., branch or specialist form based on owners, governance, tax, licensing and operations.
- Engage a Costa Rican notary, approve the foreign power-of-attorney/apostille/translation route and check the current electronic-contact/resident-agent rule.
- Execute the public deed; the notary submits the electronic CrearEmpresa/TramiteYa form to the National Registry.
- After registration, establish tax/activity, RTBF, books, accounting, CCSS/payroll and municipal/sector permits.
- The banking application begins after the legal/tax file, UBO, signatory and business-evidence preparation.
Délais indicatifs
Registry directives provide for electronic notarial review, but a power of attorney/apostille, deed corrections, tax/RTBF, municipality, licences and banking determine the total launch time. Registry or banking timing is not guaranteed.
Aperçu fiscal
- Costa Rican tax analysis considers territorial/source rules and current treatment of local and qualifying cross-border income based on actual operations.
- Corporate income tax, VAT, withholding, payroll/CCSS, municipal patents and property/transfer taxes apply as triggered.
- Foreign management/owners, CFC, permanent-establishment and treaty/withholding treatment remain subject to their home and counterparty jurisdictions.
Aperçu général, sans constituer un conseil fiscal ou juridique personnalisé. Les règles sont revérifiées avant le dépôt.
Entrée en relation bancaire et paiements
- A bank reviews the legal-person ID, public deed/personería, tax/activity status, RTBF/UBO, signatories and source of funds/wealth.
- Local operating evidence includes the address, municipal/sector permits, contracts, customers/suppliers, website and projected flows.
- A bank may require a local representative/signatory or in-person/video verification; notarial electronic filing does not guarantee an account.
Obligations annuelles
- Annual corporate tax/registry standing, statutory books and accounting/tax returns under current rules.
- The RTBF beneficial-owner declaration is filed in the prescribed annual period and updated upon applicable changes.
- Board/manager, legal-representative, ownership, domicile/electronic-contact and capital changes are recorded and filed as required.
- Municipal patents, licences, CCSS/payroll and sector/environmental/tourism renewals apply according to operations.
Restrictions et risques
- The resident-agent/electronic-address transition makes old static checklists unreliable; the notary must confirm the live filing requirement.
- Company registration without tax activity, RTBF, a municipal patent or sector permit does not authorise launch of the underlying business.
- Incorporation does not conceal ownership or disapply AML/KYC. Registered agents, registries, tax authorities 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.
Étendue de l'accompagnement
- Coordination of the Costa Rican notary, power of attorney/apostille, TramiteYa/National Registry, RTBF and tax/licensing hand-off.
- Comparison of entity forms, ownership structure, tax links and substance requirements before filing.
- Coordination of the registered agent, notary or local representative, 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 EMI.
- Accountant hand-off and creation of an annual-return, BO, tax, licence and substance compliance calendar.
