Having a Spanish VAT number is imperative for non-resident companies for a variety of reasons, such as recovering VAT, importing or exporting goods, to file intrastat and more. Spanish regulations require that non-resident companies appoint a representative in the country to handle communication with the tax office, so we also offer fiscal representation.
To get started you will need to provide us with some basic paperwork, and we will apply for a VAT registration and once approved you will receive a VAT number (known as CIF in Spain).
By using our VAT registration service, you can easily obtain a Spanish VAT number. Plus, we offer the option of getting VAT numbers in multiple EU countries for increased efficiency. And once you have your Spanish VAT number, you can even employ staff for your foreign company. Get in touch with us for more information.
If your business is based outside of Spain but you're looking to hire employees within the country, you have the option of registering your company in Spain for the purpose of obtaining an Employer number. By doing so, you will be able to receive an employer identification number from the social security office, allowing you to legally hire employees, regardless of their citizenship, without having to establish a physical office presence in Spain and without paying taxes in Spain.
The first step in registering as an employer in Spain is to obtain a Spanish Tax ID number, which can be done through the Spanish Tax Authority. Once the Tax ID number is obtained, the next step is to register with the Social Security system, which is mandatory for all employers. This involves providing information about the company and its employees, as well as paying contributions to the Social Security system on a monthly basis.
In addition to registering with the Social Security system, employers in Spain must also register their employees with the Spanish Labour Authority and comply with Spanish labour laws and regulations. This includes providing employee contracts, paying a minimum wage, and ensuring that the workplace is safe and healthy.
It's important to note that failure to register as an employer in Spain and comply with Spanish labor laws can result in significant fines and penalties. That's why seeking the advice of an experienced lawyer can help ensure that your business is fully compliant with all relevant laws and regulations.
With GoToLawyers Spain advice and assistance, you can navigate the registration process and ensure that your business is in full compliance with Spanish law during the whole process.

A branch office is a subsidiary that operates within Spain, owned by a parent company based in another country, which aims to expand its business globally by establishing this semi-autonomous unit in Spain.
Setting up a branch in Spain is similar to registering for VAT. In general, it's better to establish an SL or register for VAT. If you want to have a long-term presence in Spain, an SL usually has more tax benefits compared to a branch. When compared to VAT registration, creating a branch requires you to file corporate tax forms in Spain, which is not necessary for VAT registration.
But a branch office operates as an extension of the parent company without its own legal identity, making daily operations easier and reducing legal responsibilities. It still has access to the main business's strengths, such as capital and brand recognition. Usually, if the business needs a steady flow of cash, a branch office is a better choice as it allows for easy transfers from the parent company.
The process of setting up a branch office in Spain begins with a resolution from the parent company's board of directors. They will appoint a representative with the authority to make decisions and formalize the establishment process. The representative will need to obtain an NIE number to open a bank account in Spain.
A public deed must be signed at a notary office, including the name of the branch, its activities, representatives and registered office. The parent company's bylaws must also be provided, along with legally translated and legalized documents.
The documents will be deposited at the Mercantile Registry, which takes 5-6 days to process. The branch owner will then need to obtain a tax ID number (NIF) and register the company in the business census by filling out a form and the city hall must be notified once the branch operations have started.
We will take care and accompany you throughout all this process and be on hand for any question should they arise.
