The United Kingdom is a respectable country with a stable financial situation, which provides for the registration of companies with a zero tax rate. This makes it attractive to those who want to open a business in Europe. But in order to register a company or enterprise in the United Kingdom, you need to know all the legal details and be well oriented in the tax legislation.
Global popularity
It has to be said that nowadays the company registration in the UK is one of the shortest routes to the global market for goods and services sale. Apart from a good reputation, for which the British companies are famous, there are other reasons for the creation of companies in this country, among which the most important are:
- ease of business registration;
- low cost of registration procedures ;
- the opportunity to work at the most competitive tax rate, paying taxes at the place of the enterprise registration;
- a real opportunity to take advantage of business immigration program and to obtain a permanent residence in Europe.
Important points
In the United Kingdom, you can register:
- sole proprietorship;
- a private company ;
- a public company (joint-stock company);
- charity organization;
- partnership or association (it can be a regular or limited liability company).
You can also open in the territory of the United Kingdom a representation office of already existing business or a branch of the international company.
But more often in the United Kingdom Private Company Limited by Shares is registered. These are private companies with limited liability, for opening of which a minimum number of founders is needed. At the same time the director can be in one person, and he does not have to be a citizen of the country. The law also does not require designating the Secretary when registering such enterprises, payment of capital tax and makes no specific requirements for paid-up capital. But the company must have an address in the United Kingdom and registered shares with a certain value.
Another important question is a bank account. It is better to open it to an English bank, so you can count on the larger loyalty of local financial institutions.
