Company formation is quoted as a fixed fee per setup, covering the notarial deed, the NIB and sector licences, and usually a bank introduction. Contract review — a lease, a purchase, a shareholder agreement — is a separate fixed fee that includes a written opinion and a round or two of revisions.

Immigration work is priced per application and varies enormously by category. A tourist-visa extension is a modest fee and a queue; a work-based KITAS with sponsor arrangement is many times that, takes weeks, and depends on documents you may need to obtain from abroad first. Ask for the fee, the government charges and the realistic elapsed time as three separate numbers.

Accounting is a monthly retainer scaled to transaction volume and headcount, covering bookkeeping, monthly reporting, payroll and tax filing. Annual returns are commonly quoted on top.
