FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How long do members have to pay in their capital?

Under the Law on Enterprises 2020, members and shareholders must contribute the committed capital in full within 90 days of the enterprise registration certificate. If they don’t, the company has to register the reduced capital or face a penalty.

Can a startup give equity to employees (ESOP)?

Yes, but how depends on the company type. A joint-stock company can issue shares to employees under a plan approved by the shareholders’ meeting. An LLC has no shares, so it usually uses an agreement to transfer part of a capital contribution, or a conditional cash bonus. Receiving shares or capital can trigger personal income tax, so plan it in advance.

Is investor money taxable?

A capital contribution is not revenue, so it is not subject to corporate income tax. What matters is recording it correctly: a registered capital increase, or a convertible loan under a contract. Booking it as revenue, or leaving it unclassified, is a common finding in due diligence.

Can we send the financial statements to investors?

The annual financial statements serve the company’s obligations to the state. Investors usually also want monthly management reporting on cash flow, cost by area and runway. We produce both from the same set of books.

What does it cost before we have revenue?

Before revenue the document count is usually low, so the lowest tier applies. As volume grows the fee moves up the published tiers, and only from the next period once both sides agree.
