Do you have a business idea, you know what you want to do, and you already have a vision for your business, but you don’t know where to start?
The first step is registering a limited liability partnership (LLP). It's important to do this correctly to avoid mistakes and unpleasant consequences from government agencies.
Below are key questions that, once answered, will help you register a company in the Republic of Kazakhstan quickly and affordably.
1. Determine your business category
In Kazakhstan, all limited liability companies are divided into small, medium, and large business entities.
- A small business is a limited liability company with an average annual number of employees of no more than 100 people and an income of no more than 300,000 MCI.
- Medium-sized business — number of employees from 100 to 250 people, income from 300,000 to 3,000,000 MCI.
- Large business – more than 250 employees and income over 3,000,000 MCI.
2. Determine the company name
The name must be unique and not duplicated.
It is recommended to check for matches before registering to avoid rejection.
3. Authorized capital
The authorized capital is the amount contributed by shareholders to start the company's operations.
It can be set at a minimum of 0 tenge and contributed within one year of registration.
The authorized capital can be increased by a shareholder's decision or decreased upon re-registration of the LLC.
4. Sole participant
Decide who will be the founder of the LLC – an individual or a legal entity.
5. Head of the company
Appoint a director or a general director to manage the LLC.
Legally, there's no difference between the two titles; the choice depends on your preference.
6. Legal address
You need to determine the location of your company.
When registering, you must provide the RCA (registration address code).
The legal address can be:
- your own, if the premises are registered in your name;
- under a lease or sublease agreement.
When submitting documents to government agencies, it is sufficient to indicate the RCA code.
7. Type of activity (OKED)
Decide what type of business your company will engage in. By law, you can engage in any activity not prohibited by the laws of the Republic of Kazakhstan. If you're unsure which code to choose, don't worry. You can specify your primary activity now and add additional codes later through re-registration.
However, it's important to keep in mind that some activities require a license.
8. Tax system (with or without VAT)
During the registration process, decide whether the LLC will be a VAT payer.
This depends on the expected turnover and the specifics of the business.
9. Contact phone number
A telephone number is required for registration and communication between government agencies and the company.
10. Expected number of employees
Please indicate the approximate number of employees you plan to hire at the initial stage.
