Registration of business in Slovakia

Main

The main reason for moving to Slovakia for many people is doing business. This country improves the indicators of favorable conditions for companies every year. The establishment of a company in the territory of the Slovak Republic is the basis for the business migration of owners, directors, beneficiaries and shareholders. The Slovak company is beneficial in the implementation of the export and import of goods, cooperating, for example, with EU member states.

What types of companies can be established in Slovakia? This is a limited liability company, private enterprise and joint-stock company.

LLC registration

A limited liability company is one of the most common organizational and legal form options for setting up a company in the Slovak Republic. Before submitting an application, the founder must select and reserve the name of the LLC to be created, open a bank account, know the amount of the share capital contribution, the composition of participants and managers, the type of activity and the legal address, which must be located only in Slovakia. Details of directors and shareholders will be publicly available in the company register.

There are a number of requirements for an LLC:

The minimum authorized capital is €5,000.
The number of shareholders is not more than 50.
The minimum contribution of each participant is at least €750.
One of the directors must be a citizen of the Slovak Republic or have a residence permit.

Registration of a Joint Stock Company

For a large business, a joint-stock company is suitable. Here, the minimum authorized capital is €25,000. The contribution is divided into shares with a certain value. All shares are registered. Management is provided by the board of directors and the supervisory board appointed by the general meeting of shareholders. Most often, a joint-stock company is registered with more than fifty shareholders.

There is also the possibility of acquiring a ready-made company in Slovakia. This is an easy and fast way to start your business here. After the transaction, you can change the company name, legal address and subject of activity (changes must be registered in the Court Register).
