I'm planning to start a small software consultancy in Luxembourg as a SARL. What are the exact steps to register, the required documents, whether a notary is required, and the minimum share capital and its payment timing? Also, what are typical timelines, costs, and whether VAT registration should be done at the same time?

Dear Sir or Madam,

With reference to your request, please note that Luxembourg offers an attractive tax environment, economic and political stability, and a world-class financial infrastructure. It also benefits from a highly skilled and multilingual workforce, as well as direct access to European markets, making it an ideal choice for companies seeking international expansion.

The Private Limited Liability Company (SARL) is one of the most popular legal forms in Luxembourg and is particularly well suited for small and medium-sized enterprises. The minimum required share capital for a SARL is EUR 12,000, which must be deposited in a bank account opened in the name of the company. The articles of association must be notarized, requiring the involvement of a notary. The share capital must be paid in at the time of the company’s incorporation.

On average, the incorporation process takes one to two months, in addition to obtaining a business permit from the Luxembourg Ministry of the Economy.

You may benefit from a VAT exemption up to an annual turnover of EUR 50,000. Beyond this threshold, VAT registration will be mandatory.

We offer a comprehensive range of services to assist you with the incorporation of your company, including legal advice, drafting of the articles of association, management of administrative formalities, registration with the Trade and Companies Register (RCS), opening of bank accounts, company domiciliation and establishment of the registered office, as well as obtaining the necessary licenses. We also provide advisory services to ensure ongoing compliance and optimization of your company.

We remain at your entire disposal should you require any further information.

Yours faithfully,
Yves Tumba Mwana
