I am going to purchase 50% of a business here in the DR. I am American and I have no visa. I also do not have a cedula or residency. Anyone with knowledge of the way things work here - I have a few questions:
-Can an American own a company in the DR without a visa or residency?
-In your experience - what do I need to know?
-What is the paperwork I need to complete? How much does it cost? How long does it take?
Here are things I already know:
-The owner of the business is trustworthy
-The business is 100% legit -complete with a fixed location and clientele with which I have personally interacted various times
-I know the value of the business.
-I know that it is a good business, there is a lot of demand, and that I am getting a good deal with the what the owner is asking to sell me 50%
Thanks for any help you all can offer.
