Hacer negocios en Israel: aspectos específicos para su empresa
Si desea comenzar a hacer negocios con su empresa en Israel, ya sea para una startup, un proyecto de construcción temporal o para abrir una sucursal, la ley israelí le brinda varias opciones.
Creación de una empresa israelí
Dado que no se requiere un capital mínimo para establecer una sociedad accionarial israelí, es relativamente sencillo de configurar. Incluso si todos los accionistas, la junta directiva y la administración están ubicados en el extranjero, apenas hay trabajo adicional involucrado en la creación de una empresa en Israel.
En una primera junta general, los accionistas deben acordar la creación de la empresa, un acuerdo de asociación y el consejo de administración. Luego, el acta se envía al registro mercantil y tan pronto como se realiza la entrada en el registro, la sociedad se activa.
Establecer una subsidiaria israelí también ha demostrado ser una opción sencilla y económica, especialmente para actividades a largo plazo en Israel. Sin embargo, hay algunas cosas a considerar desde el punto de vista fiscal, especialmente determinando los servicios entre la subsidiaria israelí y la empresa matriz y sus costes.
Detalles Fiscales
Una característica especial de la ley israelí es el instituto de la empresa extranjera que opera en Israel. Por ejemplo, puede registrar su empresa alemana como esta misma empresa alemana en el registro comercial israelí sin crear una nueva personalidad jurídica israelí.
Tanto una "empresa extranjera" (si hace negocios a largo plazo en Israel) como su subsidiaria israelí tienen que abrir un archivo de impuestos en Israel.
Si su empresa está registrada como una "empresa extranjera" en Israel y tiene una forma de empresa alemana para la que no hay contraparte en Israel, esto se asocia con un gran esfuerzo y costos en términos de impuestos en Israel: en este caso, la hacienda israelí considera que la empresa, por ejemplo, una GmbH & Co KG, es transparente y, por lo tanto, cada accionista declara y está sujeto a impuestos en Israel. La hacienda israelí luego insiste en que se abra un archivo de impuestos para cada socio. En el caso de una empresa conjunta en forma de sociedad limitada, cada socio tiene que abrir su propio archivo fiscal además de la empresa conjunta.
Resumen
La ley de sociedades israelí contiene menos formas societarias que la alemana por ejemplo y también menos regulaciones con respecto a las empresas, ya sea su establecimiento, capital u órganos.
En este sentido, esto permite a las empresas extranjeras comenzar a hacer negocios en Israel con relativa facilidad. Sin embargo, dado que no existe una contraparte israelí para cada tipo de empresa extranjera, esto puede generar situaciones y problemas fiscales complicados.
Nuestros abogados son expertos en el derecho tributario y corporativo israelí y pueden ayudar en la planificación corporativa y tributaria óptima de sus actividades comerciales en Israel.
