The Belize Trade and Investment Development Service (BELTRAIDE) has announced the launching of Belize’s Investor Manual.

The manual was launched by Minister of Finance, National Development and Public Service, Prime Minister Said Musa and BELTRAIDE at the House of Culture in Belize City on July 26th.

According to the government of Belize, the Investor Manual will function as an investor-friendly tool to attract, inform, and assist local and international investors in establishing a business in Belize. The manual provides a guide to policies and procedures required to establish a sustainable, viable, and legally transparent enterprise within the country.

The manual is presented in two parts:

  • Part 1 – Belize: The Natural Niche, Profile of Belize, Procedures for Establishing a Business, Priority Sectors for Investment, Investment Requirements.
  • Part 2 – Support Agencies, Statistics, Forms.

BELTRAIDE continues to actively participate in the development of the business community and productive sectors through its three “Strategic Areas”: Marketing, Enterprise Development, and Investment and its five “Operational Functions”: Capacity Building, Information, Promotion, One Stop Shop, and Business Facilitation.
