A limited liability company (SL) is incorporated by public deed before a notary, which is then registered with the Commercial Register; on registration, the company acquires legal personality. Since Law 18\/2022, the minimum capital is one euro, although special rules apply until it reaches \u20ac3,000. Shareholders are not personally liable for the company\u2019s debts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Under Article 4 of the Capital Companies Act<\/a> , the capital of an SL cannot be less than one euro. Until it reaches \u20ac3,000:<\/p>\n\n\n\n The shares must be fully subscribed by the shareholders and their nominal value paid up when the deed is executed (Article 78<\/a>). An SL can be set up by two or more people or by one person alone, as a single-member company (Article 19<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Law 14\/2013 allows an SL to be incorporated with a standardised deed, using the Single Electronic Document (DUE) and the electronic system CIRCE<\/a>, from an Entrepreneur Service Point (Article 15<\/a>). Without standard articles of association, the registrar initially registers the company within six working hours, with the basic details, and the final registration is made within five days; the Tax Agency is then notified for the definitive tax number (NIF) (Article 16<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n In an SL, the capital is made up of the shareholders\u2019 contributions, and they are not personally liable for the company\u2019s debts (Article 1.2<\/a>). The most relevant exception when setting it up is capital below \u20ac3,000 on liquidation, explained above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We advise you on whether an SL suits you, draft tailored articles of association (allocation of powers, entry and exit of shareholders, shareholders\u2019 agreements), coordinate the signing with the notary and the registration, and complete the registrations with the authorities.
