Key conditions

What a foreigner should know before opening an SRL

We review the requirements that are especially important for a foreign founder: personal visit, IDNP, confirmation through IGM, legal address, SRL structure and preparation for bank checks.

01

Personal visit

For the standard ASIP.MD procedure, the foreigner needs to come to Moldova. This relates to IDNP, notarial actions and document preparation.

02

IDNP and Adeverinta

IDNP is needed for registration, banking and tax actions. Adeverinta confirms the foreigner status and IDNP if such confirmation is required.

03

SRL and address

SRL is used most often. The company needs a legal address, administrator, CAEM, beneficiar efectiv and a structure clear for the bank.

Practical preparation

What to check before submitting documents

Before registration, it is better to agree the data that affect ASP, bank, taxes and the future launch of the company.

1

Passport and IDNP

We check the foreigner data and whether IDNP confirmation through IGM is needed.

2

Name and address

We check the company name, legal address and data for the future SRL structure.

3

CAEM and taxes

We select activities with regard to IT, trade, services, VAT and future accounting.

4

Bank

We prepare a basic description of activity, source of funds and business model in advance.

Incorrect IDNP can delay the procedure

IDNP and Adeverinta

Incorrect IDNP can delay the procedure

IDNP is used as the state identification number of an individual. For a foreigner, it is needed in registration, banking, tax and administrative procedures in Moldova.

Adeverinta confirms IDNP and the foreigner status. Upon request, ASIP.MD helps prepare the application, document set and submission route.
