Includes steps involved in establishing a local office.

It is a simple process to establish an office in Latvia.  However, considering the required documentation as well as the advantages of understanding local legislation, using legal counsel to establish an office in Latvia is highly recommended.  A list of English-speaking lawyers can be obtained from the U.S. Embassy: List of Attorneys in Latvia.

Details on establishing an office in Latvia are available on the website of the Latvian Investment and Development Agency (LIAA). The European Commission manages the Your Europe website where investors can find useful information on various topics ranging from taxation and customs to employment contracts.
