There are different options to invest in Spain.
YOU OPEN A BANK ACCOUNT WITH YOUR FOREIGN COMPANY:
If your foreign company opens here in Spain a bank account is something you have to deal with your own Spanish bank entity.
This option is sometimes very tough because the Central Bank or the your Bank may block the money for months until you perfect justify where is the money comming.
YOU CREATE AN SPANISH COMPANY:
A direct investment form your foreing company to an startup will need that you inform to the Spanish Central Bank each movement for money for laundry survillance reasons.
HACIENDA TAX RESIDENCE SURVIALLANCE IN SPAIN:
In principle, creating an Spanish new company won't make Hacienda look for your tax residence since the ownership does not have "motherland".
What make Hacienda look for tax residence is:
- where you live (Hacienda even look how many days you have your light open at home or how many watter you use);
- where your kids go to school (Hacienda will look it to determine where you should have your tax residence).
- where are your main economic interests (where you most work).
