Before you start

Questions founders ask first.

The ones that come up first, answered as plainly as we can.

  • How much does this cost?

    Free 15-minute introductory call to understand your situation, answer questions about how we work and suggest the most appropriate next step. No document review, detailed eligibility assessment or personalised legal, tax or immigration advice is included.

  • I am a freelancer, not a company. Is this still for me?

    Yes. Setting up as an independent professional is a different route from forming a company, with different paperwork and different obligations, and it is one of the routes this page is built around.

  • Who actually sets the company up?

    Qualified professionals do. Notaries, accountants and legal experts carry out the formal steps; we coordinate them, explain what each step is for and keep the sequence in the right order.

  • Do I have to live in Italy to have a business here?

    Those are two decisions and we treat them separately. Some clients move with the business; others keep the company as the focus and stay abroad. Which requirements apply to you is part of the first conversation.
