How to set up a company in Finland?
Depending on the nature of your activity in Finland, the type of structure that best suits your project on the Finnish market (liaison or representative office, subsidiary, branch), and the legal form of business in Finland that you will choose (sole proprietorship, limited liability company, etc...), the administrative procedures and formalities for the formation of the company in Finland may vary. Generally, the steps to create and register a company in Finland are:
- Choice of the legal form under Finnish law and the social capital
- Drafting the company statutes in Finnish.
- Opening a Finnish bank account
- Registering the company in the Finnish trade register
- Obtaining a Finnish tax identification number
After these steps of creation, you will receive all the necessary legal documents attesting the legal existence of your company or subsidiary in Finland. Your Finland business will also have to meet the specific accounting requirements of Finnish business law.
