LLC Registration · Azerbaijan

Setting up an LLC in Azerbaijan – Consulting & Full Support

Starting a business in Azerbaijan begins with registering an LLC. We handle all steps: from preparing powers of attorney and documents to delivering final registration certificates.

What is an LLC and Why Choose It?

LLC is a legal entity that can be founded by one or more individuals or companies.

  • No minimum share capital required.
  • Option to apply simplified taxation.
  • Can be registered with a single founder and director.
  • Convenient for foreign citizens entering the Azerbaijani market.

Timeline & Format

The registration usually takes 3–5 business days. Documents are submitted correctly and on time so you can start operating quickly.

Documents Required to Register an LLC in Azerbaijan

  • Valid passport or ID of founder(s) and director.
  • Legal address for the company.
  • Power of attorney (if abroad, notarized and legalized in your country, then sent to Azerbaijan).

We prepare and certify all necessary documents and ensure compliance with local regulations.

Key Steps of the Registration Process

1) Preparing the PoA

We guide you on issuing and notarizing the required power of attorney correctly.

2) Drafting & Certifying Documents

We draft the charter and other corporate papers, organize notarization, and submit them to tax authorities.

3) Registration (3–5 days)

We track the process, keep you updated, and hand over final registration documents.

4) E-Signature & Seal

We assist with obtaining an electronic signature (Asan Imza) and ordering the company seal.

5) Bank Account Opening

We consult on choosing a bank and procedures. The director must be present in person (simplified for residents).

What Comes After Registration?

Settlement Account

Open a corporate account at a local bank. We’ll guide you through requirements and steps.

Accounting & Tax Compliance

We recommend outsourcing bookkeeping to avoid fines and mistakes. We help choose the right tax regime for your activity.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take?

Usually 3–5 business days after submitting correct documents.

Can foreigners establish an LLC?

Yes. Foreign citizens can act as founders and directors.

Which tax regime to choose?

Options include simplified or standard corporate tax. The choice depends on activity and turnover — we advise the best fit.

Is there a minimum capital requirement?

No. The law does not set a minimum charter capital.

Conclusion

Registering an LLC in Azerbaijan is straightforward with the right support. We prepare and submit documents, provide tax and legal guidance, and make the process seamless for you.
