Joint Stock Company (S.A.) Incorporation – Complete Legal Consultancy
The joint stock company (S.A.) is the legal form recommended for large scale businesses, companies seeking to raise capital through the issuance of shares, or those operating in sectors where the law requires this structure, such as banking and insurance. Unlike the limited liability company (SRL), an S.A. requires a higher minimum share capital and stricter corporate governance, offering in return greater credibility with partners, banks, and investors. Our service covers the entire process of incorporating a joint stock company, from establishing the shareholder structure and share capital, to drafting the articles of association, notarial authentication, payment of contributions, and registration of the company with the Trade Registry. We provide representation throughout the procedure and advise on choosing the management system, one tier or two tier, best suited to your business objectives.
Overview
Our support covers all the steps required to incorporate a joint stock company:
- Preliminary analysis and advice on choosing the appropriate legal form, S.A. or SRL, based on your business objectives and specifics.
- Establishing the share capital and shareholder structure, including the allocation of cash and in kind contributions.
- Drafting the articles of association and related documents, establishing the management system, one tier (board of directors) or two tier (executive board and supervisory board).
- Notarial authentication of the articles of association, mandatory in the case of in kind contributions or incorporation by public subscription.
- Opening the share capital bank account and assistance with paying in contributions, in accordance with the law, at least 30% of cash contributions at incorporation, with the balance due within 12 months.
- Appointment of the management bodies and, where applicable, the statutory auditors or financial auditor.
- Preparing the file and representation before the Trade Registry, through to obtaining the certificate of registration.
- Optional: post incorporation assistance, tax registrations, opening the current bank account, and drafting internal regulations.
