Can I rent a registered office in Austria as a German?

  • You can rent the address wherever you live. Booking is online, you upload your ID documents after payment
  • We check the documents before the nameplate goes up
  • You read the post as an email scan, you do not have to travel to Austria

What an address alone does not change

  • Where you and your business are resident for tax purposes usually depends on the actual circumstances, for example where management actually works
  • A rented address in Austria therefore usually moves neither your tax residence nor your tax liability
  • That applies both ways: ask your tax adviser in Germany, Switzerland or Liechtenstein beforehand and, for an Austrian company, in Austria

What you bring

  • ID document of the person authorised to represent the company
  • Details of the company, for a registered office also the company data
  • VAT ID, if you have one. Our prices are net, how VAT is charged to you depends on your situation

Founding a GmbH in Austria

  • The seat of a GmbH is usually entered in the company register through the notary on formation
  • The WKO Vorarlberg founder service gives free advice on the process and documents
  • Whether the address is enough in your case is best clarified beforehand with your tax adviser or the WKO founder service. That applies to any address, not only ours.

Booking is online and you upload your ID documents afterwards. What the address means for you in tax and law, clarify beforehand with your tax adviser.
