We will help you open a company and fully legalize your business activities in Belarus. Belarus offers foreign investors a favorable investment climate, stable political situation and well-developed infrastructure, which makes it attractive for starting and expanding businesses.

Why a Limited Liability Company (LLC)?

Registration of an LLC by a foreign founder is the most popular and convenient way to start a business in Belarus. This form is ideal for both beginners and experienced businessmen and has a number of key advantages.:

• Limited liability: Participants are not liable for the company’s debts with their personal property, only within the limits of their share in the authorized capital.
• Flexibility: An LLC can be created even by one person, and the minimum size of the authorized capital is often symbolic.
• Trust: Companies in the form of LLC enjoy greater trust from partners and customers compared to individual entrepreneurs.

Who can become a founder?

Almost any adult and capable foreign citizen can open a company in Belarus. However, it is important to be aware of several limitations. For example, a company will not be registered for a person included in the list of persons involved in terrorist activities or who has an outstanding criminal record for economic crimes in Belarus. For citizens of the EAEU member states (for example, Russia), the process is particularly simplified — they do not need a visa to enter for the purpose of doing business.

Key steps for opening an LLC in Belarus

The process of registering a company for a foreigner consists of several important stages, in which we will provide you with full support.:

• Selection and approval of a unique company name. This is a free procedure that can be completed online.
• Determining the legal address. The company’s location cannot be a residential building. We provide 3 months of rental of a legal address in our package of services, which solves this issue instantly.
• Preparation of constituent documents. We will professionally draw up the charter, orders and the decision on the appointment of the director.
• Payment of the state fee (about 9-12 euros) .
• Submission of documents to the registration authority (local executive committee or Department of Justice) . After successful registration, you will receive a certificate, often on the same day.
• Opening a checking account in a Belarusian bank. We will accompany you to the bank to resolve this issue quickly.

Important nuances and how we help to solve them

Foreign founders often face a number of specific requirements:

1. Documents: All submitted documents (passport, power of attorney) must have a notarized translation into Russian or Belarusian. If you are acting through a representative, a power of attorney issued abroad must be legalized.
2. Director of the company: It is important to remember that citizens of Belarus, Russia and some other EAEU countries can be directors without a special work permit. We will advise you on the best solution.
3. Visa support and registration at the place of stay: If necessary, we will provide consultations on visa issues and help with temporary registration in Belarus, which must be completed within 10 days after arrival.
4. Accounting services: To ensure that your company works without problems with the tax authorities from day one, we will select a reliable accounting service company for you, which is already included in our package.
