Serbia is one of very few countries in Europe with the lowest profit tax. Together with its exceptionally favourable geographic location, it has highly qualified and well-educated people potential, especially in IT industry. Operate within one of Serbian free zones, enjoy low company costs, duty-free regime for most of the key industrial products, and unlock new market opportunities for your company.
The most suitable legal form for setting up business in Serbia is a limited liability company (d.o.o.) which corresponds to the form of limited liability partnership (LLP) by its structure. It can have one or more shareholders, but the liability is limited to the founding capital of the company. Also, a company can have one or more directors, which offers the opportunity to manage a new business more efficiently. According to Serbian legislation, foreign citizens have equal legal rights to setup a company in Serbia as well as domestic ones. The minimum amount of founding capital for company registration in Serbia is RSD100, which is less than €1. The company’s address has to be at the territory of Serbia, which opens numerous opportunities for investment and development even outside the capital. The whole process of establishing a company in Serbia can be carried out in just a few days with the professional guidance and coordination of all necessary legal steps.

tracking-status-system

Our clients get access to a status tracking system to keep up with the procedures

We have enabled you to follow what is happening with your process of company formation in Serbia, from the very beginning of the procedure to downloading the company e-documents. The system sends you notifications in real time whenever something is completed.
Do shareholders need to be present for company formation?
Company registration, which is the first step, can be done entirely remotely, based on power of the attorney. The person appointed as the company director is necessary to be present for bank and other activation procedures.
Is it required to have translation of company documents?
The presence of court translation is required for the process of verifying the documents at the notary office, in case that the founders do not speak Serbian. Hiring a court interpreter and notary fees are included in our service packs. In case of remote company formation, it is required to notarise POA in a foreign country.
How long does it take to register a business in Serbia?
It takes 3 to 5 days to prepare the documents for company formation and organise the steps. The registration process takes not more than five working days. Once established, depending on the service package you choose, other activities can be organized very efficiently and quickly.
How long does it take to be in Serbia for the company formation?
The process of establishing a company in Serbia has been well-organised in terms of efficiency, so that all activities that require personal presence can be organised during a few days stay in Serbia.
Can a non-resident be a director of the company?
Yes, the law allows this option. The appointed director can even be employed as a non-resident in the new company, but in order to get a work permit they should have previously approved temporary residence permit.
Can we have assistance with bank account opening?
Absolutely. Our idea is to enable you to complete all the legal steps when setting up a company in Serbia in one place, with maximum time- saving and a minimum of your engagement.
