Chile Forum

ive searched in the forum but cant find an exact answer to this...
I have a contract visa from another company but would like to register my own company in chile....is the permitted while im on a visa or do i have to hold perm res

you can start and own a company in Chile as a foreigner without even ever visiting Chile. The bigger issue is the work visa. You will still need one. You can own a company, you just can not work for it without a work visa.

ah ok
so basically i need a contrct from my own company would that work?

Yeah you can probably have your accountant draft up an employment contract and then you just sign it. We did something similar but on professional visas.
