Cost of operating
Band: Moderate
- Setup (USD): $1500–7500
- Annual (USD): $1400–7500
SRL/SAS often ~$1.5–1.8k via a firm; standard SA ~$2.2–4.5k (notary can be heavy with capital). Full-service packages cost much more. Annual accounting/compliance often ~$1.4–7.5k plus ICOSA for SAs (~$400). Pricier than a lean Paraguay EAS; a formal country—you mainly pay notary and professionals.
