2026 GuideHow to tokenize an asset in Spain, reviewed by three law firms. Download it

What you finance yourself with

Add shareholders to your S.A. with tokenized shares.

Your public limited company increases capital and the registry entity (ERIR) registers the new shares in a digital register. You prepare the issuance with your law firm and open it to your investors from a single account.

What it is

A tokenized share is still a share. What changes is where it is recorded. It moves to a register based on distributed ledger technology (DLT) kept by an authorized entity, the ERIR. Your general meeting approves the capital increase and whoever subscribes becomes a shareholder, with the rights set by your articles of association and the issuance agreement. You see the list of holders in your dashboard, always up to date.

When it fits and when it doesn't.

It fits if

  • Your company is an S.A., or you are willing to transform it.
  • You want to finance yourself with capital and accept adding shareholders.
  • You have your own investors to invite.

It does not fit if

  • You have an S.L. and you do not want to transform it. Its ownership interests cannot be securities. See the bonds and debentures or the participating loan.
  • You do not want to give up equity or voting rights. Debt finances you without doing so.
  • You expect someone to find investors for you. HokenFi does not find them.

What you decide.

Your law firm puts it in writing in the issuance document.

Questions

What beginners usually ask.

Can my S.L. issue tokenized shares?

No. The ownership interests of an S.L. cannot be securities. To issue shares, you have to transform it into an S.A., with a general meeting resolution, deed, registration and 60,000 € of capital. You can request quotes from law firms to do so from the platform.

What happens to my current shareholders?

They have a preemptive right to subscribe new shares in proportion to those they already hold. Your law firm sets out in the agreement how it is exercised.

Do I need a prospectus?

In general no, if you are below 8 million in twelve months. From June 2026 the European regulation sets that figure at 12, unless a country opts for 5, but Spanish law still says 8, so your law firm confirms the one in force. Yes, you need the issuance document.

When is an ESI required?

When the issuance is without a prospectus and you offer it to the general public with advertising. The ESI validates the information your investors receive and supervises the marketing.

Does the CNMV approve my issuance?

No. The CNMV registers the ERIR as responsible for the registration of your issuance, and that registration does not imply that it has validated the terms or the information.

How much does it cost?

You pay a one-time access fee of 249 € when creating the account. The plan, from 249 € per month, you do not pay until you launch the issuance. The fees for the law firm, the ERIR and the ESI are separate and you see them in each offer before signing. Add the notary and the Commercial Registry. Prices exclude VAT.
