Services for Shareholding Directors
As a director of your own company or with a significant number of shares, immigration law considers you as a businessperson. This means you need a residence permit for self-employment (§21 I AufenthG).We will gladly help you establish your residence here. Training other colleagues in business immigration, Alexander has the most relevant experience to serve you to your best.
If you still need to incorporate, please start here with www.instantcompanyformation.biz. Please understand that your application as a businessperson will only be considered "possible" after the notary has been visited to start your company. When your company is open and running, this will be a very strong pull to Germany that the authorities will not so easily deny and let you live and operate your business in Germany. Just having a company is not interesting at all for immigration purposes.
A successfully running company is more interesting than a plan...
- Costs for founding a UG,
- Costs for founding a GmbH,
- Opening a representation or branch of a foreign company in Germany.
But if you are in a hurry, buy a ready-made company from our associate partner, Beam my Presence to Germany GmbH.

Business Plan:
When applying for self-employment, i.e. running a corporation or a company, a business plan is mandatory. The business plan will be outsourced to an associated business consultant, an economist, as he has the professional experience in planning businesses. Please understand that the Ministry of Economics of the respective Federal State and /or Chamber for Industry and Commerce will test the business plan on its feasibility. Though Germany needs businesses, the authorities still carefully examine what you plan to do here. Unwanted/unviable businesses will be denied! My associate partner is an economist and will tell the success story of your business idea to the authority's economist. Remember carefully that your application stands and falls with your business plan!
In addition to developing your company's success in a business plan for immigration purposes, you can use the business plan for subsidies, or for loans, or credit lines with your bank. For more details on subsidizing, please: click here. Grants are available from at least three different pots.
Do you want to do yourself a favor? Then describe to me in the text box below what your line of business is – elaborately. Usually, I determine the eligibility of your line of business in an initial discussion. I need to ensure that your business idea is clear and conceptually meets the requirements.
