Which company type suits you?

Sole proprietorship: Quick, low-cost formation; profits are subject to progressive income tax and liability is personal.
Limited company: Can be formed with one partner; subject to corporate tax, partners are generally liable up to their committed capital.
Joint-stock company: Better suited to investors, new shareholders and share transfers; ideal for growth-oriented businesses.

Which is more advantageous depends on your profit level and plans. We compare the options with real figures in the first meeting.

Support after formation

We stay with you after formation: we keep your books from day one and set up your statutory obligations. We also support branch openings, address and name changes, capital increases, share transfers and liquidation.

Frequently asked questions

Should I set up a sole proprietorship or a limited company?

At low and moderate profit levels a sole proprietorship is usually more economical; as profits grow, the corporate tax advantage of a limited company becomes more significant. Partners, investment and reputation also matter. Read our comparison article or ask us.

How long does formation take?

With complete documents, a sole proprietorship is usually ready within a few days, and limited or joint-stock companies within about a week including trade registry procedures.

Which documents are required?

Mainly identity details, a lease agreement or title deed for the business address, partners' signature declarations and capital details. We send you the current list for your company type.

Can I use my home as the business address?

For some activities, yes, but conditions such as building management consent and the nature of the activity matter. We can also consider virtual office options together.
