In Costa Rica, the incorporation and maintenance of companies is not just a formality: it is the foundation for operating legally, accessing investment, and avoiding penalties. However, not all businesses have the same needs. A startup just getting started does not face the same challenges as an international company relocating operations to the country.
Magma Legal understands this difference, which is why we designed the Magma Packages: clear legal solutions, organized into packages that support every stage of your business—from the initial idea to global expansion.
In addition, our packages represent real cost savings. When legal services are contracted individually, as is traditionally done, the final amount is usually much higher. With the Magma Packages, we bundle the essentials into a single solution, giving you predictability, efficiency, and value for your investment.
