Not necessarily. We believe it is good to form a company in any place that your company determines is a good fit for your products, services, goals, and objectives. At the same time, business leaders should recognize that civil law countries tend to have more restrictions and steps before formation is complete – making expansion more time-consuming and expensive. Agile Legal’s international team is skilled in helping firms around the world form and remain in good-standing.

A branch is a part of a company that is closely tied and still operates under the governance of the main company. A subsidiary is a separate entity in which 50% or more shares are owned by another company known as the parent-company. Registering and forming will require different supporting documents for either structure. The process will also vary from country to country.
