Mexico Company Registration & Nearshoring Services - Easyco
Get started

To register a company in Mexico in 2026, foreign investors typically choose the S.A. de C.V. or the SAS (for single shareholders). While 100% foreign ownership is allowed, companies must obtain a Tax ID (RFC) from the SAT, which often requires a physical appointment. The 2026 Tax Reform mandates strict “Beneficial Owner” reporting and real-time data sharing for digital platforms. Total setup time is 4–8 weeks, and corporate tax is 30%.

    THE "NEARSHORING" OPPORTUNITY (2026)

    • The “Plan México” Incentives: 2026 offers accelerated depreciation (up to 91%) for investments in key sectors like tech, automotive, and logistics.
    • Proximity: Manufacturing in Mexico means “Made in North America” status (USMCA compliant), avoiding tariffs that hit Asian competitors.
    • Labor Force: Access highly skilled engineering talent at ~40% lower cost than the US.

    ENTITY STRUCTURES: S.A. DE C.V. vs. SAS

     

    Feature S.A. de C.V. (Standard Corp) SAS (Simplified Stock Corp)
    Shareholders Minimum 2 (Foreigners OK) 1 (Must be an Individual)
    Capital No Minimum Max Annual Income Cap
    Setup Speed 4–6 Weeks (Notary Required) 1–2 Weeks (Digital)
    Best For Serious Business, Startups, Nearshoring Solopreneurs, Consultants
    Restriction Must have Legal Rep Shareholder must have e.Firma

     

    Crucial Note: The SAS is fast, but the shareholder needs an electronic signature (e.Firma), which often requires residency. Most foreign clients must use the S.A. de C.V. via Power of Attorney.

    THE "SAT" REALITY CHECK (Your Competitive Advantage)

    Most competitors hide this. We highlight it to build trust.

    • The Challenge: Obtaining the Corporate Tax ID (RFC) requires a biometric appointment at the SAT office.
    • The Easyco Fix: We provide a Local Nominee Legal Representative who already has an RFC. This allows us to activate your company’s tax status immediately while you wait for your own appointment.

    TIMELINE & PROCESS (6-8 WEEKS)

    1. Name Authorization: We secure your Denominación Social from the Ministry of Economy (3–5 days).
    2. Drafting Bylaws: We structure your Acta Constitutiva to allow foreign investment (Cláusula de Admisión de Extranjeros).
    3. Notary Signing: Our local team signs the deed using your Power of Attorney.
    4. Commercial Registry: The deed is filed with the RPC (Public Registry).
    5. Tax ID (RFC): The Hard Part. We attend the SAT appointment to get your Tax ID.
    6. Bank Account: We open your account with top-tier banks (Intercam, BBVA, or Banorte).

    Frequently Asked Questions (2026)

    Yes. Mexico allows 100% foreign ownership for most activities. Restricted sectors (like oil extraction) require special permits.

    Technically, no. You can grant a Power of Attorney (POA) to Easyco. However, for the Bank Account and specific SAT procedures, a physical visit by the Ultimate Beneficiary is sometimes requested by banks. We advise clients to plan for 1 trip to Mexico City.

    This allows you to import raw materials duty-free and VAT-free if they are processed and then re-exported. Easyco can help you apply for an IMMEX program number.

    There is no legal minimum, but we recommend MXN 50,000 (~$2,500 USD) to show banks you are serious.

    If you sell digital services (SaaS, Streaming) to Mexicans, you must register for VAT even without a local entity. The SAT now has “Kill Switch” power to block non-compliant websites.
