Starting a business in Germany
Germany is Europe’s powerhouse
With a robust economy, business-friendly environment, and access to the European market, Germany offers strong opportunities. We walk you through setting up a company, from choosing the right structure to managing taxes and labor law.
Choose the Right Business Structure
The first step is selecting the right legal structure. Each type offers different advantages depending on your goals, number of owners, and the liability protection you need.
Register Your Business
Once you have chosen the structure, officially register your business. This involves several key steps:
Capital Deposit and Business Bank Account
Some company types require a capital deposit before operating. A GmbH, for example, needs at least €12,500 of the €25,000 share capital deposited before registering. You then open a business bank account to manage finances, providing your registration certificate, Articles of Association, and proof of the capital deposit.
Understand Taxes and Obligations
Business owners must understand the corporate tax system and comply with German labor law, including social security, health insurance, and other employee obligations.
Funding and Support Options
Germany offers strong funding opportunities for new and growing businesses.
Hiring Employees and Managing Labor Law
Hiring requires compliance with German labor law. We advise on contracts, social security, and health insurance.
