The Legal Landscape Of Business in Spain
With the economic downturn caused by the coronavirus pandemic, Spain has come to recognize the importance of foreign investment. There’s a critical push right now to bring business to the country. This includes:
- 100% foreign ownership in investments
- Completely liberalized capital movements
- A nondiscrimination policy for international firms with respect to local access
Keep in mind, while there are favorable policies, there are foreign investment restrictions in industries such as:
- Mineral production
- Gambling
- Telecommunications
- Air travel
As a sovereign nation, Spain has a right to set policies regarding business facilitation and commercial real estate. Understanding these policies and the applicable law can be extremely complicated. Our team of attorneys can build a path forward for you to get the success and returns you desire.
