The establishment of a Private Company
When you opt for a private company together or with a business partner, there are a number of things that must first be arranged. After our advice to you, we prepare the deed of incorporation. The articles of association of the private company included, or: the rules that apply to the private company apply from the start.
A private company with limited liability is an independent legal entity, suitable for companies with only one shareholder and one director, and for companies with various shareholders and several directors. Due to the desired closed nature of the mutual cooperation, the shares are usually not freely transferable.
Legal advantage
One of the legal advantages of a private company is that the shareholder / director is in principle not personally liable for the debts of the private company above the amount of his share. Whether it is fiscally beneficial to have a private company among other things depends on the size of the expected turnover of a company and the expectations for the future. For example, which cash you still need. Meijer Notarissen can advise you on this.
