Starting a business in Armenia
We help you choose an appropriate legal form, prepare the data and documents, and navigate registration in light of the founders, activities, and plans for the business.
01
The legal form affects liability, governance, relationships between partners, paperwork, and ongoing compliance. We recommend a route after reviewing the business model rather than applying a one-size-fits-all answer.
Often considered for a business with one owner and a simpler management structure. The entrepreneur acts in their own name and bears liability in the manner provided by law.
Suitable when a separate company, one or more founders, ownership shares, and formal corporate governance are required.
02
We handle sole proprietorship or LLC registration from document preparation through opening a bank account.
03
We clarify citizenship and ownership, the proposed activity, customers, team, payments, and plans to operate in Armenia and abroad.
We compare a sole proprietorship and LLC and determine the registration process.
We collect the data, review the name and address, prepare corporate and registration documents, and agree them before filing.
We submit the documents through the agreed route, monitor the status, and respond if the registration authority requests clarification.
We review the extract, file the tax notifications, and support opening the bank account.
04
The final list depends on the legal form, citizenship, ownership structure, filing method, and country of issue of the documents.
05
Legal registration is only one stage of a launch. Decisions left unresolved at the start often cause problems after the extract has been issued.
We discuss potentially applicable regimes in light of the activity, turnover, team, imports, exports, and statutory restrictions. The outcome depends on the facts and timely completion of any applicable procedures; we do not promise a particular tax treatment in advance.
We identify the address to be entered in the registration records and arrange a process for receiving official correspondence. A nominal address without a working process can lead to missed notices.
For an LLC, we agree the manager, authority, participant structure, and ownership shares.
Opening a bank account is included in our service: we prepare the documents, complete the forms, and support communication with the bank.
06
We register the sole proprietorship on the day the documents are filed.
We register the LLC on the day the documents are filed.
The timeline applies when the document package is ready. Preparing missing documents may require additional time.
07
Differences in liability, partnership structure, and governance may matter more than registration speed.
Mismatches in names, translations, shares, address, or authority can lead to clarification requests and repeated work.
The turnover-tax notification must be filed within 20 days after registration. We track the deadline and assist with filing.
Registering an activity classification does not replace a licence or permit where one is required for actual operations.
Corporate, tax, and accounting obligations continue after registration.
