Types of Company Registration in Germany
Limited Liability Company (GmbH)
This type of company registration is the most widely used and suitable business form for small and medium businesses. It is suggested to Middle Easterners who want to start their business in Germany.
One of the features of registering a limited liability company in Germany is that the share capital of the limited liability company must be at least €25,000, of which €12,500 must be deposited into the company’s bank account during the registration process. GmbH shares are not tradable on the stock exchange.
Public Limited Company (AG)
This type of company is similar to a limited liability company or GmbH in terms of shareholder liability. Their difference is that the shares of the company are tradable. This type of company is mostly recommended to large companies.
This type of company is usually not suitable for newcomers to the international business arena, and it is recommended for people who enter the global markets for the first time to register a limited liability company (GmbH) first.
General Business Partnership (oHG)
In a partnership firm, partners have equal abilities. This type of company lacks a single decision maker and manager. Partners are equally liable for debts and obligations and profits.
Contribution to Civil Law (GbR)
GbR is one of the types of partnership companies in Germany, whose owners are natural or legal persons with separate business licenses who start cooperating in the form of a contract, oral or written partnership.
Limited Partnership KG
Different partners in this type of company have different restrictions. Cooperation between two partners is such that at least one of them has unlimited liability. This type of legal entity is more suitable for small and medium-sized companies.
GmbH & Co. KG
A subset of a limited liability company is a limited liability company where the general partner is a limited liability company rather than an individual. This type of company registration is suitable for small and medium-sized companies as well as family companies.
Subsidiary Company
A subsidiary company is a non-independent company that is physically separated from the parent company, but has a certain degree of dependence on the parent company.
Branch Company
Branch companies are companies that can actually be called a non-independent sales center affiliated with the parent company.
