A small-cap SIA does not need a large cash investment, €1.00 is enough. Restriction: one person can own only one such company.
Full capital companies (2800EUR and more) have more credibility in the business environment and the possibility of extraordinary dividend payments.
One person may own several such companies.
State fee for registration of a small capital LLC - 20EUR
State fee for registration of a limited liability company (share capital 2800EUR and more) - 75EUR
Finding the perfect name for your business might not be so difficult. It doesn't have to match the names of your products, services or brands. However, there are some limitations to consider:
When planning your business development and digital presence, it is worth looking into whether domain names such as .lv or .eu are freely available. You can check for Latvian (.lv) domain names on the NIC website, and for European and World level domain names on the InstantDomainSearch domain search platform.
Every company is obliged to register an address where the board of directors can be reached.
It's easiest to register a registered office in a property you own, a house or an apartment.
A legal address, perhaps on real estate owned by friends or family. In this case, you will need the property owner's consent to register your company's registered office.
Office or place of business. When renting out premises, landlords usually agree to register a legal address.
A virtual office or address where only correspondence is received.
The share capital of a small-capital limited liability company is payable only by a cash contribution paid by the founders.
When registering a limited liability company with share capital of 2800EUR or more, the share capital can be paid as follows:
The share capital is payable in full by the time of application. The cash contribution must be paid into a suspense account.
The member or members pay the amount of the share capital into a suspense account. If there are several members, each member must pay in his or her share of the share capital.
Proof of the share capital contribution will have to be submitted to the Company Register together with the LLC registration documents. This can be a payment order or a statement.
A suspense account is a compulsory requirement, except in the case where the share capital is paid up solely by means of a contribution in kind valued by a certified valuer of the Companies Register.
You can open a temporary account with a bank such as Citadele, SEB, Swedbank or a fintech company such as Paysera or Revolut.
It's much more convenient to do it remotely. Fintech companies offer.
Please note that when opening a temporary account, you will need the LLC's incorporation documents, a memorandum of association or an agreement. This means that the LLC registration documents must be in place.
EDS - Electronic Declaration System of the State Revenue Service.
A profile is automatically created for a company in EDS when it is registered in the commercial register.
You can log in to the EDS via internet banking or e-signature tools.
You must register the type or types of business activity of the LLC with the State Revenue Service within one month from the date of registration. The type of activity must be registered in the electronic declaration system of the SRS EDS. The type of activity must comply with the NACE classification.
Check whether the type of business activity you are planning requires a licence or permit. You may need to obtain the appropriate licence or permit before actually starting your business.
SIAexpert offers the EXPERT Plus service:
If you intend to provide services and sell goods in Latvia and the EU, and your income does not exceed €50,000 per year, you do not have to register for VAT.
If you register for VAT, you will have to pay 21% VAT on your services or goods.
Requirements for compulsory registration in the VAT register:
In order to register for VAT, an application must be submitted to the SRS EDS system or to the Register of Enterprises at the same time as the application for registration of a limited liability company.
The State Revenue Service shall examine the application within 14 days.
The Accounting Act provides that the books may be kept by the director of the company if he is the sole member of the board of directors and the sole shareholder.
In a company with two or more members of the board of directors, the accounts may be kept by a member of the board of directors by written agreement with the company. The person must have appropriate qualifications as an accountant, such as a certificate, diploma, experience or appropriate knowledge in the field of accounting.
Many companies outsource their bookkeeping, but this is an additional cost.
The law on occupational safety and health states that an employer (if you have employees) must organise and ensure the functioning of the occupational safety and health system in your company.
If the company has fewer than 5 employees, the employer may not involve the competent authority and manage everything himself.

the company has a sole shareholder and a member of the management board
the monthly turnover of the company does not exceed 5 minimum monthly salaries (€3 100) From 2024, this threshold will be €3500!
If the sole member of the limited liability company and the member of the board of directors himself provides a service and produces and sells goods in small quantities, he can pay himself dividends once a year or extraordinary dividends every 3 months.

The payment of extraordinary dividends could be a significant relief for service providers when they are not required to pay salaries under the law.
The corporation tax (CIT) on dividend payments is 20%.
