Why Europe Incorporations?

Choosing Europe Incorporations to start your business in France leaves you sleeping well at night. We allow you to:

Eliminate costly legacy practices of hiring expensive law firms to start your business or register your trademarks and patents.

Cut legal and administrative costs of setting up expensive human resources functions to staff your business and navigate the complex fiscal and social regimes of businesses in France.

Stop paying Big-4 accounting firms’ exorbitant costs for your business’ accounting, bookkeeping, and fiscal filing services that can be done at a fraction of the costs by local expert certified accountants and auditors with the same competence level.

Note: while larger businesses may choose International Accounting Standards (IAS/IFRS), smaller companies are subject to local “General Acceptable Accounting Practices (GAAP).

Manage your business’ pan-European VAT filings/declarations, payment, and refund claims, and ensure tax compliance.

Handle your business’ EORI, custom declarations, and other import/export compliance in the European Union.

Efficiently and effectively expedite all local business and personal services requiring the intervention of lawyers, jurists (legal experts), notaries, and others to resolve personal or professional statutory issues.

With the EURL, SARL, SAS, and SASU, there are no restrictions on the nationality of owners, managers, directors, or shareholders.

In some cases there may be a requirement to appoint, even nominally, a local French national as manager but that depends on the circumstances.

Europe Incorporations will advise you accordingly.

Europe Incorporations may take up to two weeks from the time your bank account is opened to get you incorporated.

Getting us your paperwork will likely take longer than our incorporation process.

VAT registration, if required, is with the Customs authorities and may take an additional ten days.

Client Feedbacks

We are only as good as our clients say we are.

It was great working Euro Incorporations. Very straightforward. They promised us our incorporation in under three weeks and we got my K-bis license in two. I fully recommend them

Great service. We almost setup the wrong entity and Europe Incorporations steered us in the right direction. France is tricky. The right partner makes the difference. Very happy we chose Europe Incorporations

I needed to setup an LLC but didn't want to pay a lawyer a ton of money. Europe Incorporations explained the choices and created my EURL. I am very happy with their service.

Steven Chu Independent Contractor

Another company screwed up and was taking forever, so I worked with Europe Incorporations to form my company in France, All my questions were answered and they incorporated my entity in two weeks. I am extremely satisfied.
