Our Company Formation Services
Austria offers several corporate forms that differ significantly in liability, capital requirements, and structure.
Einzelunternehmen (EPU)
Das Einzelunternehmen ist die einfachste Form der Selbstständigkeit. Es ermöglicht einen schnellen Start ohne Mindestkapital.
Die persönliche Haftung ist jedoch unbeschränkt, was diese Form langfristig nur bedingt skalierbar macht.
Die OG eignet sich für Gründerteams, die gemeinsam operativ tätig sind.
Alle Gesellschafter haften unbeschränkt, was Vertrauen und klare Rollenverteilung voraussetzt.
Kommanditgesellschaft (KG)
Die KG bietet ein flexibles Beteiligungsmodell mit unterschiedlichen Haftungsstufen.
Sie eignet sich besonders für Familienunternehmen oder Konstellationen mit stillen Investoren.
LLC/Ltd (GmbH - Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung)
Die GmbH ist die bevorzugte Struktur für professionelle, wachsende oder risikobehaftete Vorhaben.
Sie bietet Haftungsbe-schränkung, klare Eigentümerstrukturen und ein professionelles Auftreten gegenüber Banken, Partnern und Investoren.
GmbH & Co KG
This hybrid structure combines the advantages of a limited partnership (KG) with the limited liability of a limited liability company (GmbH). It is frequently used in real estate projects and investment models.
Verein
A non-profit association is the right structure for charitable, social, or cultural projects. However, it is not suitable for classic commercial business models.
