The Principality of Liechtenstein is a state in the west of central Europe, bordering Austria and Switzerland. The capital is the city Vaduz.
Liechtenstein is considered one of the smallest countries in Europe. A stable political and economic system, favourable investment conditions and tax benefits attract foreign investors and make Liechtenstein one of the financial centres of Europe.
Maira Consult recommends using companies registered in Liechtenstein for asset management, investment activities, international trade, as well as holdings and family trusts.
Liechtenstein recognizes a legal entity as its tax resident if it is controlled and managed from the territory of the Principality, and if the legal entity is registered in Liechtenstein. The income of a legal entity derived from any type of business activity, as well as from capital gains and passive investments, is subject to taxation.

To incorporate a company in Liechtenstein, you first need to make a request to the Commercial Registry of Companies to verify the name. Once the name is confirmed, the corporate documents are prepared. The most common form of company incorporation is a limited liability company (GmbH).
Each member of the company must provide a passport and proof of residence (utility bill). Also at this stage, information about the activities and share capital of the GmbH is provided.
Before the company is registered in the Liechtenstein Commercial Register, a shareholders' meeting is held in the presence of a notary in Liechtenstein and the constituent documents are signed. Then GmbH bank account is opened and the amount of the share capital is deposited. After the bank confirms that the amount of the share capital has been credited, documents for the registration of the GmbH are submitted to the Commercial Registry. It is possible to register a company in Liechtenstein remotely (registration actions are carried out by a lawyer on the basis of a power of attorney).
A minimum of 50% of the share capital must be paid before registration.
The process of company registration generally takes 3-4 weeks from the date of receipt of the required set of documents and depending on the workload of the Commercial Register.
As soon as a company in Liechtenstein is registered, the Commercial Registry issues ready-made corporate documents with the appropriate stamps.
If necessary, the company's documents are submitted for legalisation and apostille.
The originals of the company's corporate documents are sent by courier service.
