A branch and a subsidiary are two different ways of expanding a business into a new jurisdiction. While both structures allow a company to establish a presence abroad, they differ in terms of legal status, liability, and tax implications.
- Branch: A branch is an extension of the parent company. It operates as the same legal entity and is subject to the same legal obligations.
- Subsidiary: A subsidiary is a separate legal entity from the parent company. It operates under its own jurisdictional rules and regulations.
