Frequently Asked Questions

Should I set up a limited company or a joint stock company?

The number of shareholders, the capital structure, flexibility of share transfers and your investor plans all play a part in this decision. We listen to your needs and recommend the company type that suits you best.

How long does it take to set up a foreign-owned company?

It largely depends on how quickly the documents are ready. Apostille and translation of documents obtained abroad affect the total time; we share a tailored schedule at the start.

Do you handle the general assembly every year?

If you wish, we prepare the annual general assembly, the meeting documents and the registration every year.
