How to Register Your Company in Latvia
You will need to do the following to register your business with the Latvian government.
- Get Your Information Together
Start by putting together all the info you will need for your registration application. That includes shareholder and board member details, passport information, the company’s name, and share values.
- Prepare the Draft Documents
Draft documents will need to be prepared in both Latvian and your preferred language for the next step. The documents will need to be attested by a notary to complete them, and then it is on to the next step.
- Create a Bank Account
A temporary bank account will need to be created to handle half of the subscribed capital. The company handling the draft documents for you can set up the temporary bank account as well. That way, you won’t even have to go to Latvia for the process.
- Submit the Documents
The documents will need to be submitted with the application, sent on to the Commercial Registry for assessment. Their review of the submission can take between one and three business days.
- Change Bank Accounts
The temporary bank account will need to be changed to a permanent account, after the request has been met with approval. One of your company’s representatives may need to be present to make that happen, though power of attorney can be used to activate and change a bank account without you or one of your business partners having to step foot into Latvia.
- Complete Tax Agreement
The next step following registration is to complete the tax agreement form. You’ll need to sign this, and then you will have the power to submit tax returns when required.
