Doing Business in Mexico

 
When doing business in Mexico there are different forms of setting up a company. Foreign companies can set up a representative office to help “check the field” and provide information regarding products or services rendered by the parent company in the U.S. These types of offices create no income, they don’t enter into agreements to avoid permanent establishment, and they won’t have a tax ID nor formal existence. Foreign companies can also establish a Mexico branch – establishing in Mexico to commercialize and sell products and it will have a Mexican tax ID and will create income. You can also acquire an existing Mexican entity. There are two options on how to acquire this business – stock purchase or asset/equipment purchase.

In this video our speaker, Laura M. Nava, reviews manufacturing operations in Mexico. She discusses employment and immigration issues, which are applicable to all Mexican entities.

Laura M. Nava is an attorney with Dentons US LLP. Her practice focuses on assisting clients with Mexican trade, financing and investment transactions.
