Registration services for companies and legal entities in Serbia

One of the areas of activity of the law office is the registration of firms (legal entities) in Serbia, as well as the purchase of ready-made firms and the opening of bank accounts. Term of incorporation and registration of companies: 3 working days.

As an advantage, it is also the fact that all actions are explained in competent Russian.

The incorporation and registration of a company start with the preparation of the relevant articles of association of the company and may include the disclosure of the company's account, the organization of a legal address, and accounting support.

The procedure for registering a limited liability company (Serb.: "DOO"):

  • The preparatory stage of registration is choosing your future company's name in Serbia (it is required to check among existing companies).
  • Determining the value of the company's authorized capital: The minimum possible authorized capital is 1 euro.
  • Determination of the composition of the founders and the amount of each of their contributions to the company's authorized capital.
  • Preparation of powers of attorney from the founders of the company (if the founders will not be present in Serbia at the certification of the memorandum of association). A power of attorney can be certified in Russia by a notary. In Serbia, a judicial translation of such a power of attorney into Serbian is carried out.
  • Selection of an executive director (they can be a citizen of Serbia or a foreigner). We are determining the legal address of the company. If necessary, we can provide a legal address.
  • Determination of the main activity of the company and other activities. Preparation of a draft memorandum of association for the company. On the day of the receipt of the decision on registration, the seal of the company is made. In the future, a company account is opened in a bank, after which the company is registered with the tax authority and is also registered as a VAT payer. To register a company in Serbia, you need a foreign passport of the founders, a power of attorney, or the personal presence of the founder/founders.
  • In practice, it is possible to register a legal entity and open bank accounts in the presence of notarized credentials (without the presence of the founders in Serbia).
  • As a new service, we offer the opening of a branch of a Serbian company in Switzerland—in this way, the company's owner will be able to have accounts in Swiss banks legally.
