Business transfer solutions in Spain
The act of moving control from one management entity to another, which is referred to as a business transfer, involves different approaches. Whether it involves changing ownership, assets, moving the business to a new location, or transferring share capital, each of these methods brings about significant changes for the people involved in the enterprise.
Our business transfer solutions
Our business transfer solutions offer a range of strategies to help with different aspects of transferring a business in Spain. Whether it’s changing ownership, moving assets, moving operations, or handling share capital, we provide custom solutions to fit your unique needs and objectives.
Transfer business ownership
We have the ability to provide a resolution for transferring ownership of a business in Spain, involving the shift of control and decision-making power from one owner or group to another. This usually requires the use of legal documents and discussions to guarantee a smooth transfer of ownership rights, duties, and assets. Possibilities include selling the business, transferring ownership to relatives or workers, or merging with a different company.
Transfer business assets
Our strategy for transferring business assets in Spain involves moving or reallocating both physical and intangible assets from one company to another. These assets include real estate, machinery, stock, patents, customer agreements, and reputation. By carefully documenting, valuing, and following legal processes, we guarantee the correct accounting and safeguarding of assets throughout the transfer process.
Move business to new location
We provide a complete package for companies seeking to move to a different site. This includes detailed planning and organization of the actual move of business activities, whether it be within the same city, to a different part of the country, or even overseas. Our method aims to reduce interruptions to business activities, maintain existing customers, and guarantee a seamless transfer of assets, staff, and services to the new site.
Transfer share capital
Our method for transferring share capital in Spain makes it easier to buy, sell, or transfer ownership interests in a company through exchanging shares. This can happen through private transactions among current shareholders, public offerings on stock exchanges, or as part of mergers and acquisitions. We guarantee compliance with securities regulations and shareholder agreements, as the transfer of share capital affects ownership structures and voting rights in the company.
Transfer agreement and documents
A Business Transfer Agreement (BTA) is a formal contract that allows one company to move all of its assets and liabilities to another. To move forward with this process and set up a meeting at the notary’s office, the following documents must be provided:
- Passport
- Utility bills of the company such as an electric bill or phone bill
- A document providing all of terms and conditions for business transfer
Extra documentation might be required depending on the specific situation.
We provide help in putting together all the required documents and determining key factors like market price, payment method, and transfer date.
Key points of business transfer in Spain
When preparing for a transfer of duties within a company in Spain, keep the following factors in consideration:
1
Assess your company’s actual worth
Evaluating the true value of your company entails a thorough examination of multiple aspects, such as financial performance, assets, liabilities, market position, and growth potential. Once you establish the market value and possible selling price, you can make well-informed choices about the direction your business will take.
2
Evaluate options for passing the organization
Examine different possibilities for transitioning the organization, taking into account options like selling the business, passing ownership to family members or employees, merging with another company, or attracting external investors.
3
Time consumed
Keep in mind that the transfer of ownership in Spain may last as long as 5 years, therefore it is important to plan ahead and leave enough time for discussions, legal matters, and the transition process.

Identify possible buyers
Find potential purchasers for your business in Spain, such as individuals, corporations, or investment companies looking to buy or invest in your company.

Evaluate financing options
Research different ways to finance the handover procedure, including the option of personally contributing to the funding or looking for financial support from incoming management or investors, particularly if you will continue to be involved with the company post-transaction.
