Many dream of starting their own business. Few are in danger of doing this. And for those who have made up their minds, the question arises of which form of management is best to choose - individual entrepreneur or LLC. Experts advise that LLC is more convenient and functional.
An LLC will be considered open from the moment you officially register it with government agencies. This procedure is carried out according to a certain legislatively defined order, which is spelled out in Article 2 of the Federal Law.
In order to go through the registration procedure, you need to complete several steps to achieve your goal. First, come up with a name. It must be complete. In some cases, an abbreviated company name is also allowed. The language is not fundamental - it can be Russian or any foreign language. The full name is determined as follows, because it must contain in its name the words "limited liability company" in full. In the case when you use an abbreviated name, then in the name you can indicate only the abbreviation LLC. It is not recommended to use words that characterize statehood (for example, Russia) or a link to someone else's brand. You can do this only if you have permits.
Determine the location of your LLC. This must be the place of its registration (requirement of clause 2, article 4 of the Federal Law). This address must be confirmed with appropriate documents. For example, a lease agreement for non-residential premises for your company is suitable for this purpose. It is easier to register your place of residence as a legal address. True, such a solution is suitable only for small businesses. Otherwise, you run the risk of violating the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, which states that a residential building is intended only for individuals to live in it.
Also, to open your LLC, you will need a definition of the authorized capital. It will make up the minimum size of the property that will guarantee the interests of your creditors. The authorized capital cannot be equal to less than 100 minimum wages. At the same time, not only money is estimated in the total amount, but also securities and metals and other things that can be easily sold and cash out for them.
Before submitting all documents for registration, you also need to indicate those persons who will be listed as the owner or founder of this company. These can be absolutely any individuals or legal entities, with the exception of those who are prohibited by law to engage in entrepreneurial activity.
Pay for all services related to the registration of your company. These are the registration fee, payment for copies of constituent documents, notary services and bank commission for opening a current account. In general, the amount will be about 10,000 rubles.
Now all prepared documents can be submitted to the tax office. The review period takes on average 8-10 days. Based on the results, you will be given a complete set of documents required to start activities. From now on, your LLC will be considered open.
