Why incorporate

Selling on MercadoLibre from abroad requires a real Argentine company.

MercadoLibre and other marketplaces require a local CUIT, compliant electronic invoicing and a registered address before you can sell. SAXIA incorporates a SAS or SRL that meets every requirement, so you can start selling without living in Argentina.

After incorporation

Every document you need, nothing you shouldn’t have to share.

Once your SAS is registered, you get the complete paper trail — not just a CUIT number. Everything is uploaded to your own secure area on our site, available for as long as we work together, and yours to download or share at any time.

What you receive

  • Signed Social Contract, legalized by the DPJ
  • DPJ resolution approving the company
  • CUIT certificate
  • Minimum capital deposit receipt
  • Filing fee payment receipt
  • Corporate book rubric (or proof of request)
  • Ingresos Brutos (provincial tax) registration
  • Electronic invoicing enablement
  • Multilateral Agreement registration
  • Company Mercado Pago CVU
  • Power of attorney or registered-address agreement, when applicable

How we handle access

We never ask for your passwords. For ARCA, we register as an authorized relationship on your Clave Fiscal, not your login. For MercadoLibre, we use secondary-user access with only the permissions each task needs. For your bank, we work from your CBU and statements. Your credentials stay yours, always.
