Register a company in Argentina, the comeback trade.
Set up an Argentine company in the middle of the hemisphere's boldest stabilisation - inflation broken from its peaks, a fiscal surplus held, exchange controls being dismantled in stages, Vaca Muerta pumping records and the RIGI regime guaranteeing big investors 25% tax and repatriation for thirty years. The other side of the trade: ordinary companies still face up to 35% plus provincial turnover taxes, labour courts remain a blood sport, the legacy of every previous decade is a broken promise - and any serious plan prices the 2027 election.The hemisphere's boldest stabilisation: surplus held, inflation broken, controls dismantling, Vaca Muerta at records - and RIGI locking 25% with repatriation guarantees for thirty years. The other side: up to 35% plus provincial turnover taxes for ordinary companies, labour courts as blood sport, and a 2027 election every serious plan prices.

The comeback trade, sized.
Something changed in Buenos Aires. The chainsaw budget produced the first sustained fiscal surplus in a generation, monthly inflation collapsed from crisis peaks to low single digits, country risk fell to levels unseen in years, and the currency controls that strangled business for a decade are being dismantled in stages. Underneath the macro: Vaca Muerta shale setting production records with pipelines and LNG finally built, the world's lithium triangle ramping, a copper project pipeline measured in tens of billions, and the RIGI regime offering large investors a locked-in deal - 25% corporate tax, VAT relief, guaranteed repatriation and thirty years of stability, contractual and enforceable. Add the region's best software engineers, a knowledge-economy regime that cuts their tax bill, and assets still priced for the old pessimism.
The trade. Outside RIGI the tax stack remains heavy: corporate rates band up to 35%, provinces levy their gross-turnover IIBB of three to five percent on revenue - not profit - the cheque tax skims every bank movement, and VAT runs 21%. Labour law is the country's true minefield: dismissal indemnities, an entrenched litigation industry and union power that reform only partly tamed. The staged FX liberalisation means new money moves far more freely than legacy balances, and we structure for that asymmetry deliberately. And history demands humility: Argentina has broken investor hearts roughly once a decade, so every plan we build prices the 2027 election as a scenario, not a footnote. The comeback is real; it is still a trade, and we size it like one.
Something changed: fiscal surplus, single-digit monthly inflation, country risk collapsing, FX controls going in stages. Underneath: shale records with pipelines finally built, the lithium triangle ramping, copper tens of billions deep, the region's best engineers - and RIGI converting Argentine risk into priced risk.
The terms: 35% top rate, IIBB taking 3-5% of revenue in every province, cheque tax on every movement, labour litigation as an industry, new money freer than legacy money - and a history of broken decades demanding the 2027 scenario be a number, not a vibe. A comeback, sized like a trade.

How registration works.

Argentina's gate that matters is provincial: the IIBB turnover tax takes three to five percent of revenue - not profit - in every province you sell into, and no national reform has touched it yet. Thin-margin models feel it as a second income tax; we model it per province before you price anything.

Talk to a specialist →Argentina, sized as a trade.
Can I open an Argentine company without visiting?+
Yes - the SAS and SRL incorporate by power of attorney, and the tax registrations follow remotely. Banks prefer meeting a signatory, so most clients pair one visit with the account. We sequence everything so the trip is short.
Can I actually get money out now?+
Far more than at any point in a decade - and unevenly. The staged liberalisation freed individuals and new investment flows first; RIGI projects carry contractual repatriation guarantees; legacy balances and some corporate channels still queue. We structure new entries so profits ride the free lanes from day one.
What exactly is RIGI?+
The flagship incentive for large investments - $200 million and up: corporate tax locked at 25%, VAT and duty relief, guaranteed access to FX for repatriation, and thirty years of regulatory stability, enforceable as a contract with international arbitration behind it. For mining, energy and infrastructure it converts Argentine risk into priced risk.
What is the IIBB and why does it hurt?+
The provinces' gross-turnover tax: three to five percent of revenue - not profit - levied in each province where you sell, uncredited against income tax. It survives every national reform because it funds the governors. Thin-margin trading feels it as a second income tax; services with fat margins shrug. We model it per province first.
How dangerous are the labour courts?+
The country's true minefield: dismissal indemnities accumulate with tenure, litigation is an industry with its own bar, and reforms trimmed the edges rather than the core. The defence is boring discipline - registered employment, correct categories, documented everything - which is exactly how we set up payroll from hire one.
Is the SAS really fast?+
In the City of Buenos Aires - genuinely: a digital-first form that can incorporate in days, with one shareholder and streamlined books. Some provinces move slower, and banks take their usual weeks regardless. It is the right default for most new foreign entries.
What does the knowledge-economy regime give?+
Software, IT services and creative exporters get a substantial cut in the corporate rate plus payroll-tax credits, in exchange for registration and compliance ratios. For a developer shop billing abroad it routinely turns the heavy Argentine stack into a competitive one. Eligibility is real work - we score it first.
Is inflation actually beaten?+
Broken from crisis peaks and still healing: monthly prints at low single digits, expectations anchored by the surplus and the band. Contracts still index, and treasury still respects the peso's history. We run pricing and payroll mechanics that work in both the healed and relapse scenarios.
Will the turnaround survive 2027?+
The only defensible answer: nobody knows, and the structure should not depend on hoping. The midterms strengthened the program's hand; the history of reversals is long. That is why RIGI's contractual locks matter, why we favour exportable revenue, and why every plan we build treats 2027 as a scenario with numbers, not a vibe.
What does it cost and how long does it take?+
From $2,900 for the company, from $4,900 with a bank account. The SAS can file within days; realistic zero-to-operating is two to four weeks plus the bank. Knowledge-economy filings from $2,500; RIGI support scoped per project. Renewal from $1,500/year.
