perustamisvaatimuksia

Perustamisvaatimuksia refers to the legal and administrative requirements that must be met in order to establish a new company or organization in Finland. These requirements vary depending on the legal form of the entity being established, such as a limited liability company (osakeyhtiö), a sole proprietorship (toiminimi), or a cooperative (osuuskunta).

Common requirements include registering the company with the Finnish Patent and Registration Office (PRH). This often involves submitting a company registration form, articles of association, and information about the founders, board members, and any auditors. For certain industries or business activities, specific permits or licenses from relevant authorities may also be necessary before operations can commence.

For a limited liability company, there are minimum share capital requirements that must be met. The founders must also agree on the company's name, business purpose, and the distribution of shares. In cases where a business is being transferred or acquired, specific due diligence and legal documentation are often part of the establishment process. Ensuring compliance with tax regulations, including registering for VAT and employer obligations if applicable, is also a crucial part of meeting the perustamisvaatimuksia. Detailed information and forms are typically available through the PRH website and other government portals.
