Registration business in Russia

We will help you to understand the intricacies of interaction with state bodies, the stages of passing through all procedures and choosing the appropriate type of activity.

Registration of a non-resident company in Russia is the most common practice. It includes the execution of documents in various ways, depending on the features of the organizational forms of such companies. If a foreign company wishes to conduct business within the Russian Federation for more than 30 calendar days per year, it must be registered with an authorized tax body at the place of operation.

In Russia, there are three main options for the existence of foreign enterprises that carry out business activities:

Registration of a company by a foreign citizen or legal entity is often carried out in the form of LLC, in this case it receives the minimum of encumbrances and difficulties. In order to pass this procedure, you will need documentation from the founder-foreigner (certificate on incorporation of the company, personal data of the individual, tax and bank statements, etc.), as well as local information: the name, type of intended activities, company's addresses in Russian, management structure and so on.

An important feature of this form is that foreign companies receive priority right to buy shares in the event that one of the co-founders decides to sell it. A foreign company in the form of LLC can be incorporated by either one participant or several participants, up to 50. If the number of co-founders exceeds 50, it is necessary to reorganize the company in JSC.

Affiliated foreign companies are sometimes registered as JSC, but the procedure is quite complex, which explains the minimal prevalence of such form. The participants of JSC have a non-priority right to purchase shares of co-shareholders. The shares of such companies are subject to state registration in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation regarding to securities.

A representative office, as well as a branch, is not considered as a legal entity, but if such registration of a foreign company is required, the price of time and energy losses is commensurate with opening of a new company. «RosCo» will release you from these.
