Just a minor correction. The tax burden for companies is 20%. Foreign investors must pay 35% income tax over the withdrawal of profits from Chile. However, they can use as a discount the already 20% paid by the company. However, at present time - May 2014 - there is big tax reform being discussed at the Congress to be effective on the next years. Regards www.socium.cl

Hi, I want to register a company here very soon. To open an LLC company as a foreigner, do I need to have a Chilean partner? Can I register as a single member? Thank you very much, Amy
