Haiti: common questions

How long does it take to register a company in Haiti?

Registration typically takes 2–4 weeks (remote) once your documents are complete. Actual timing depends on the registry and the route for your activity; we confirm it in your quote.

Can foreigners own 100% of a company in Haiti?

Foreign ownership is generally permitted, but rules can depend on the activity, the route and the legal structure. Some jurisdictions also require a local director or company secretary. We check what applies to your case before you start.

Can I register a company in Haiti remotely?

In many cases the registration steps can be completed remotely. Some routes, authorities or banks may still ask for an in-person step; we tell you before you commit.

Does company registration include a bank account?

No. Company registration and banking are separate. We support bank account applications through licensed partners; the bank decides on approval, documents and timing.
