Frequently Asked Questions
When may a branch office be considered for an Argentina operation?
A branch may be considered when a company wants to extend its existing structure into Argentina rather than incorporate a separate local entity. SyCA assesses whether this fits the intended operation.
Is a branch the same as an Argentine subsidiary?
No. A branch operates as an extension of the foreign company, while a subsidiary is a separate Argentine legal entity. The right choice depends on the project.
Can SyCA coordinate branch registration and ongoing support?
Yes. SyCA can coordinate branch registration, representation, tax and banking setup, and ongoing corporate support.
Can management remain abroad?
Yes. Many aspects of the branch's operation can be coordinated while management remains abroad, depending on the requirements of the case.
