Starting a Company in Curaçao: The Basics

Many entrepreneurs choose Curaçao for its location, language mix and growing visitor economy. Setting up a company involves a few clear steps.

Pick a structure

Decide whether a sole proprietorship or a limited company suits your plans. A local accountant can explain the tax and liability differences.

Register and license

Register with the Chamber of Commerce and check whether your activity needs a business permit. Some sectors, such as food and tourism, have extra requirements.

Open your accounts

Allow time for opening a business bank account, and prepare a short business plan because banks often ask for one.
