Setup of a business
You already have an enterprise and you think that the subject “setup
of a business” does not interest you at all? Wrong – existing
enterprises as well have to think about the organisational form, if they
settle at a new location.
In general, there are two ways of settling your enterprise in Dortmund:
- You found a branch office of your existing enterprise in Dortmund
or
- you found a new enterprise which will have a legal form of its own.
Special note for foreign enterprises
Obviously, the setup of a business costs more effort than the foundation
of a branch office. But consider that the foundation of a branch office
means that you are active as a foreign enterprise in Germany – this
will cost much more effort for your business activities later on, for
example with the taxation or the check of legal regulations.
Before you decide
The choice of a legal form has far-reaching consequences. You have to
consider certain legal regulations, probably to take over personal liability,
and you are subject to different basic lines of taxation. Here we can
only give you a general overview – you should not make your final
decision without professional and personal consultancy. We
will be pleased to help you with the selection of a qualified consultant.
