For a foreigner to incorporate a Limited Liability Company (SL) in Spain, the following documents are required:
- NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero) for each partner and administrator. Without an NIE it is not possible to sign the deed of incorporation before a notary.
- Valid passport of all partners and administrators.
- Negative certification of company name from the Central Mercantile Registry (confirming the chosen company name is not already registered).
- Articles of association: the document governing the internal operation of the company.
- Certificate of share capital deposit in a Spanish bank account (minimum €1 since the 2022 Start-up Law, though in practice many banks require €3,000).
- Registered address in Spain: a physical address where legal communications will be received.
