INCORPORATION OF COMPANIES IN MOLDOVA & CORPORATE SERVICES

One of the main reasons is the low company tax at 4% income tax rate on income from operating activities; dividend tax is 6%. At the same time, Moldova has signed agreements on avoidance of double taxation with more than 45 countries in the world that allow to optimize the tax base when paying of dividends, as well as in the process of drawing up tax planning strategies. 

All these circumstances are attractive for registration of a company in the Republic of Moldova. If all the necessary documents are available, the registration takes from 1 to 3 days. Our company will provide you with, if necessary, the legal address for your future company, as well as accounting and tax management services. At the same time, you are guaranteed the full legal support and compliance with tax and legal requirements. Your presence, subject to the issuance of an appropriate power of attorney, – is not mandatory.

The registration procedure includes:

• Development of the draft Articles of Association of your future company

• Registration of the company at the State Registration Authority

• Ordering the seal/stamp

• Registration at the State Tax Service

• Registration at the National Bureau of Statistics

• Registration at the National Health Insurance Company

• Registration at the National Social Insurance Office

In the end, you get a full set of documents (if necessary with a notarized translation and Apostille), required for opening a bank account in the Republic of Moldova and abroad. A company may open and operate bank accounts in any bank in Moldova or overseas. After registration, the company can run its business through any such account and transfer any amount of money from Moldova to any other country without any limitation and without any prior permit being required to that effect.
