—Frequently asked questions
These are the most frequently asked questions we are asked from the franchise sector.
How are the entrance fee and royalties of a franchise taxed?
Both the initial fee and the periodic royalties are part of the economic relationship between franchisor and franchisee and, in general, are subject to VAT. Its accounting and tax treatment may vary depending on the nature of each concept and the conditions established in the contract. We review the payment structure so that each transaction is billed and accounted for correctly.
What should you check before buying a franchise?
In addition to studying the brand and the market, it is essential to analyse the initial investment, royalties, recurring costs, the expected margin, treasury needs and the conditions of the contract. We review the numbers and the legal and tax implications with you so that you can evaluate the operation with a complete vision before committing the investment.
I have several franchised stores, should I manage them from a single company?
It depends on the size of the network, the risk of each establishment, the entry of partners, financing needs and expansion plans. In some cases it may be interesting to separate activities or establishments in different companies and articulate a group structure; In others, adding companies only increases complexity. We study your situation to design a corporate structure appropriate to the business.
