Questions and Answers on Incorporating a Holding
Recht 24/7 has been incorporating companies since 2003. We are the original and ensure that you incorporate quickly and professionally.
You will receive all the necessary documents, prepared by a lawyer according to your requirements. All this in 24 h.
Full legal advice on incorporation by a lawyer is included in the price. All services required for the incorporation are included. You do not pay anything extra for a legal “foundation consultation” or a managing director contract. You receive advice from a lawyer and not from a ” incorporation consultant ” without legal qualifications.
No hidden costs. Compare for yourself.
You will receive your incorporation documents from a lawyer individually prepared in 24 h. If you are in a hurry, we can also arrange a notary appointment within this period. The company is capable of acting as a UG in incorporation after notarization.
You will receive a questionnaire from the tax office approximately 10 days after registration in the commercial register. We will of course provide you with comprehensive support during the formation of your UG or GmbH. For this purpose we also answer all questions regarding the questionnaire of the tax office.
As with all questions regarding your formation, a lawyer is available to you around the clock. You can also get a good first overview here.
Is this only possible with the GmbH or also with the Unternehmergesellschaft?
A so-called non-cash formation is possible in principle, but it is very time-consuming. This requires a report on the formation in kind and a contribution agreement. In addition, you need an expert opinion on the value of the object to be contributed (e.g. DEKRA expert opinion). The registry court then examines this so-called non-cash incorporation on an individual basis.
From a practical point of view, it can be ruled out that a non-cash formation can be completed quickly. In most cases, it takes several weeks for the above-mentioned steps to be completed before the final registration. For these reasons, we do not currently offer non-cash incorporation.
Moreover, a formation in kind is only possible for the GmbH and not for the UG (haftungsbeschränkt).
Why can I not use an old account for my entrepreneurial company (haftungsbeschränkt), but have to open it completely new?
Prior to notarization, only a so-called “pre-incorporation company” exists. Neither such a pre-establishment company itself nor its assets are transferred to the later entrepreneurial company after its establishment.
For this reason, the continuation of a bank account set up by the founding partners prior to the establishment of the company by the pre-founding company or the later entrepreneurial company is ruled out. In this respect, we strongly advise against setting up the account before the notary appointment.

The Unternehmergesellschaft (UG haftungsbeschränkt) or GmbH are taxed according to the principles of the so-called corporations. The following taxes are due:
– Corporations pay corporate income tax on their profits in the amount of 15% of the profit.
– In addition, corporations must pay a solidarity surcharge of 5.5% on the corporate income tax.
These taxes are far below those that a self-employed person would otherwise normally have to pay on his profits. This is particularly advantageous if the profits do not have to be paid out in full and can remain in the company.
When profits are distributed to the shareholders, a final withholding tax of 25% is additionally due and a further solidarity surcharge of 5.5% on this tax.
Can I subsequently “limit liability” and take over these contracts from my old company?
No. It is not possible to transfer old contracts from the sole proprietorship to the UG (limited liability company): The UG is not a so-called “legal successor” and does not enter into the existing contracts of a sole proprietorship.
Reason of the legal regulation: The contracting partner is not to be surprised straight by the liability protection of the UG. After all, he has concluded a contract with a natural person and not with a limited liability company.
Illustrated by an example: If this were possible, one could simply found a UG for credit contracts of a private person and would then be free of debt oneself.
Your personal liability is only effectively excluded for all legal claims (and also private insolvency) when the UG (limited liability company) has been entered in the commercial register.
Incorporation with a shareholder abroad is possible. There are two alternatives:
Alternative 1:
You have the deed notarized by a notary abroad. For this notary, you also need a so-called apostille on the document. This is a confirmation by an authority that the notary is actually licensed. This possibility exists in most countries.
You can find an overview here: https://www.dnoti.de
Alternative 2:
Alternatively, notarizations and certifications by German missions abroad (= embassy) are also possible.
You can find more information at https://www.auswaertiges-amt.de/de/.
We will gladly help you to prepare the appropriate documents and powers of attorney for a notarization abroad.
