Setting up or changing a Romanian company
The useful starting point is the operation you intend to carry out: establishing a new business, bringing in an investor, transferring an interest, changing management or reorganising an existing company. Each situation calls for a different set of documents and commercial decisions.
For a new company
Describe the proposed activities, the founders and intended ownership structure, who will manage the business and the location envisaged for its operations. Explain any connection with a foreign parent company or investor and the intended launch date. These facts help organise the incorporation work and identify the matters requiring further review.
For a share transfer or a change in ownership
Bring the current articles of association, available company records and a description of the intended transaction. Identify the parties, the interests being transferred, the commercial terms already discussed and any outstanding negotiations. Financing arrangements, existing agreements between shareholders and a dispute affecting the transaction should also be identified.
For management changes or corporate decisions
Explain the decision the company needs to take, who is expected to approve it and the practical reason for the change. The current corporate documents, earlier resolutions and relevant correspondence provide the basis for reviewing and preparing the proposed operation.
Your initial enquiry
State whether the matter concerns a new or existing Romanian company, the operation contemplated and any approaching date. For international businesses, identify the countries involved and the language of the available records. Detailed documentation can be organised after the initial discussion and conflict check.
