Well, that put numbers around my recent decision to return from Spain to the UK. I love Spain to bits, but doing business there, legally, is utterly impossible even when fluent in the language. It's very easy to do business there illegally and cheap, if that's your thing.
I'm not sure why I can't seem to edit my previous comment, or what happened to it.
We contracted a law firm specialising in foreigners running companies here in Spain. They're really good, but the amount of running around I have to do is still huge and some things really are impossible (e.g. getting a foreign contract talking about monetary amounts notarised). I would certainly never incorporate here by choice.
