Constitución de una empresa en Albania

DESPLACE LA TABLA HORIZONTALMENTE

Importante: el derecho de un no residente a ser titular de la empresa no concede automáticamente el derecho a vivir, trabajar o dirigirla desde ese país. La inmigración, el permiso de trabajo, la sustancia, la dirección efectiva y la residencia fiscal se evalúan por separado.

• —Single-member and joint private businesses with individual or corporate ownership.
• —Companies with genuine Albanian/Western Balkans activity, employees, premises or contracts.
• —Foreign founders prepared to legalise corporate records and appoint an authorised electronic filer.

• —Shoqëri me përgjegjësi të kufizuar (SHPK), a limited-liability company with one or more members and minimum capital of ALL 100.
• —Shoqëri aksionare (SHA), a joint-stock company; Company Law sets minimum capital at ALL 3,500,000 for private offerings and ALL 10,000,000 for public offerings.
• —Collective/limited partnerships are forms with unlimited liability for at least some partners.
• —A foreign-company branch/representative office and an individual trader are alternatives with different liability and tax treatment.

• —An Albanian registered office, name, activity codes, members, administrator(s), term of office and representation rules in the Commercial Register.
• —A standard SHPK has no general Albanian-resident member or administrator requirement; a foreigner's personal work/residence is considered separately.
• —The initial Commercial Register application is integrated with beneficial-owner disclosure; the authorised filer uses an acceptable electronic signature.
• —Regulated activity, premises permits, employment and sector-capital requirements are checked before the standard incorporation route is selected.

• —A passport or other acceptable ID for every member, director, signatory and ultimate beneficial owner (UBO), plus current proof of address and tax residence.
• —A transparent ownership chart through to natural persons; a corporate member also provides a recent extract, constitutional documents, signatory evidence and an investment resolution.
• —A description of the product, markets, counterparties, expected turnover, source of funds and source of wealth with supporting evidence.
• —Application, founding act/statute, member and administrator details, local address/activity and initial beneficial-owner information.
• —Authorisation/power of attorney where the applicant is not the responsible person, with the filer's electronic signature.
• —A foreign corporate founder provides incorporation/constitutional records, a status certificate within the QKB age limit and a corporate investment resolution.
• —Foreign documents include a certified Albanian translation and legalisation/apostille unless a treaty or Albanian law provides an exception.

1. 01Review the SHPK/SHA/branch choice, name, activity, address, ownership, administrator, capital, UBOs and permits.
2. 02Prepare the statute/founding act, POA, legalised foreign records, translations and integrated UBO data.
3. 03The authorised filer signs and submits the application through e-Albania/QKB and responds to registry correction requests.
4. 04After incorporation, set up tax/VAT/fiscalisation, accounting/payroll, licences and a separate bank/EMI KYB process.

• —An SHPK is an Albanian taxpayer; corporate-income-tax treatment, incentives and dividend/withholding treatment are confirmed under current law and the business profile.
• —VAT, fiscalisation/e-invoicing, payroll/social contributions and local taxes are configured for turnover, transactions, personnel and municipality.
• —Corporate tax, VAT, payroll, withholding and transfer-pricing treatment follows the actual transactions, employees, related parties and current thresholds, not incorporation alone.
• —Effective management, permanent establishment, CFC rules and the owners' personal tax residence require a separate cross-border analysis.

Resumen general, no asesoramiento fiscal o jurídico personalizado. Las normas se vuelven a comprobar antes de la presentación.

• —ALL 100 is a legal minimum, not an operating budget; a bank reviews the real funding and its documented source.
• —For remote/non-resident ownership, the Albanian nexus, administrator control, customers, fiscalisation model and cross-border flows are disclosed separately.

• —File annual financial statements and applicable corporate filings through QKB/e-Albania within the prescribed periods.
• —Keep the Beneficial Owners Register and Commercial Register data current, including ownership and administrator changes.
• —Maintain accounting and corporate records, prepare annual accounts and file tax, VAT and payroll returns as applicable.
• —Keep the relevant registers updated for the address, officers, members, capital and beneficial owners.
• —Separately monitor licences, employment obligations, local substance and statutory record-retention periods.

• —Incomplete simultaneous UBO disclosure or an out-of-date foreign status certificate can lead to return/refusal of the application.
• —The representative's e-Albania access does not remove legalisation and certified-translation requirements for foreign documents.
• —Incorporation does not disapply AML/KYC, UBO or sanctions screening by the registrar, notary, representative, tax authority or financial institution.
• —A formal address and nominal capital do not replace a genuine business purpose, adequate funding and demonstrable management.
• —Company registration does not grant a licence, residence or work rights and does not guarantee a bank or EMI account.

• —Coordination of the Albanian authorised filer, registered office, QKB/UBO pack, legalised translations and post-registration fiscalisation/accounting.
• —Comparison of the entity form, ownership and governance model, tax links and local-substance requirements before documents are prepared.
• —Coordination of the registered address, licensed professional, power of attorney, apostille/legalisation and certified translation.
• —Preparation of a verifiable KYB data room and responses to legitimate compliance requests without promising a bypass, approval or timing.
• —Handover of the complete corporate pack to the accountant and creation of an accounts, tax, VAT, payroll, UBO, licence and registry calendar.
