C\u00f3mo constituir empresa en Colombia: una gu\u00eda legal<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Iniciar un negocio en Colombia es una oportunidad emocionante siempre y cuando se siga cada paso legal con cuidado. Hemos creado una gu\u00eda para acompa\u00f1arte en el proceso, desde la elecci\u00f3n del tipo de entidad hasta la obtenci\u00f3n de tu NIT, para que puedas concentrarte en crecer en lugar de lidiar con la burocracia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Entender tu estructura legal<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Est\u00e1 bien si decides dedicar algo de tiempo a investigar las distintas estructuras legales disponibles en Colombia. Sin embargo, la opci\u00f3n m\u00e1s com\u00fan sigue siendo la SAS (Sociedad por Acciones Simplificada), debido a su flexibilidad y bajos costos de mantenimiento. No obstante, hay tres casos en los que una SAS no es la mejor alternativa y es necesario analizar m\u00e1s a fondo antes de seguir adelante:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Sector financiero: <\/strong>Si est\u00e1s planeando realizar operaciones que impliquen la captaci\u00f3n de dinero o valores del p\u00fablico con promesas de beneficios futuros \u2014como esquemas de ahorro, capitalizaci\u00f3n u otros similares\u2014, o si est\u00e1s considerando salir a la Bolsa de Valores en Colombia, constituir una SAS no es la mejor opci\u00f3n.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Compa\u00f1\u00eda extranjera ya constituida:<\/strong> Para que una entidad extranjera ya existente establezca presencia en Colombia, abrir una sucursal puede ser la opci\u00f3n adecuada, dependiendo, por supuesto, de las circunstancias particulares de tu modelo de negocio.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Financiaci\u00f3n p\u00fablica:<\/strong> Una SAS no puede recibir financiaci\u00f3n p\u00fablica de ninguna entidad estatal<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    \ud83d\udca1 Consejo:<\/strong> Siempre puedes cambiar la estructura legal de tu empresa, pero ahorrar\u00e1s mucho tiempo, dinero y esfuerzo si tomas la decisi\u00f3n correcta desde el principio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    2. Verifica el nombre de tu compa\u00f1\u00eda<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Aseg\u00farate de que el nombre que quieres no est\u00e1 tomado usando el Registro \u00danico Empresarial y Social (RUES)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
    \n
    \n
    \n
    Haz cl\u00edck aqu\u00ed para verificar el nombre de tu empresa<\/div><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    \ud83d\udca1 Consejo:<\/strong> C\u00f3mo el nombre de tu empresa no es el mismo de tu marca, realmente no es tan importante.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3. Redacci\u00f3n de los documentos de constituci\u00f3n<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Siempre necesitar\u00e1s un conjunto de estatutos (considera redactarlos en ingl\u00e9s y en espa\u00f1ol) que detallen c\u00f3mo se gestionar\u00e1 y administrar\u00e1 la empresa. Si vas a constituir una SAS, tambi\u00e9n necesitar\u00e1s lo siguiente:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. El formulario RUES (suministrado por la C\u00e1mara de Comercio)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Una carta de aceptaci\u00f3n del representante legal accediendo al cargo<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Formulario de contabilidad \"responsabilidades tributarias de la persona jur\u00eddica\" con el que un contador (o nosotras) podemos asistirte<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Formulario de notificaci\u00f3n para asegurar que tu correo electr\u00f3nico y tel\u00e9fono celular son correctos<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Si una persona o empresa es due\u00f1a de m\u00e1s del 50% de las acciones de la compa\u00f1\u00eda, se debe declarar diligenciando el formulario de la C\u00e1mara de Comercio<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      \ud83d\udca1 Consejo:<\/strong> Constituir una SAS es relativamente sencillo. Sin embargo, contar con un abogado que hable espa\u00f1ol puede ahorrarte mucho tiempo y malentendidos innecesarios, especialmente considerando que no hay garant\u00eda de que los amables funcionarios de la C\u00e1mara de Comercio hablen ingl\u00e9s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      4. Registro en la C\u00e1mara de Comercio<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Los \u00fanicos casos en los que se requiere notar\u00eda son:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      1. Si decides optar por una estructura legal diferente (como una S.A., por ejemplo) o si tu abogado (me gustar\u00eda decir nosotras<\/em> ) constituye tu empresa <\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. Si tu abogado constituye la empresa mediante un poder otorgado, este deber\u00e1 ser notarizado y cumplir con los requisitos de legalizaci\u00f3n o apostilla seg\u00fan el pa\u00eds de origen.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        De lo contrario, las firmas no requieren de muchas formalidades. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \ud83d\udca1 Consejo:<\/strong> Supongamos que eres un emprendedor joven (menor de 35 a\u00f1os \u2014aunque eso no quiere decir que seas viejo si tienes m\u00e1s!) y quieres constituir una empresa con un capital conservador de un mill\u00f3n de pesos, o unos US$250 (lo cual es una excelente idea para evitar gastos mayores mientras haces crecer tu negocio), tus costos de constituci\u00f3n se pueden estimar en $ 390.000 pesos o US$ 95.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

        5. Obt\u00e9n tu N\u00famero de Identificaci\u00f3n Tributaria (NIT) y RUT (Registro \u00danico Tributario)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        Vas a usar tanto tu NIT como tu RUT que terminar\u00e1s memoriz\u00e1ndolos. Tan pronto como tu empresa est\u00e9 constituida, entender la diferencia entre ambos te ahorrar\u00e1 muchos dolores de cabeza:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        NIT (N\u00famero de Identificaci\u00f3n Tributaria):<\/strong> Un n\u00famero \u00fanico emitido por la DIAN (la autoridad tributaria de Colombia). Utilizar\u00e1s este n\u00famero durante toda la vida de tu empresa. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        RUT (Registro \u00danico Tributario):<\/strong> Un registro en l\u00ednea a trav\u00e9s del portal de la DIAN que indica tus obligaciones tributarias (IVA, retenci\u00f3n en la fuente, etc.). Todos tus proveedores y clientes importantes te lo van a pedir constantemente.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \ud83d\udca1 Consejo:<\/strong> Omitir las obligaciones relacionadas con el IVA es un asunto muy serio. Debes saber que la mayor\u00eda de las empresas est\u00e1n legalmente obligadas a cobrar IVA desde el momento en que son constituidas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Conclusiones<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        Constituir una empresa en Colombia no tiene por qu\u00e9 ser un proceso abrumador. Sigue estos cinco pasos, ap\u00f3yate en un abogado local para los modelos y tr\u00e1mites, y estar\u00e1s listo y bien posicionado para un crecimiento sostenible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
