My US-based production company is picking up more projects in the EU, and I would like to explore setting up a branch of our company in Paris (that is where most of the work has been centered around.)
We have looked into a SAS in France through a French corporate attorney, but the red tape behind getting a Paris-based address, French bank account, HR laws, etc., has been mind-numbing and so far impossible to work around. Is there another EU country we should consider registering the company out of, where we would still be able to work/operate out of France (and other EU cities) but have an easier time getting set up?
