Incorporation in Russia

At present formation of Russian LLCs (OOO) is regulated by the Civil Code of the Russian Federation and by a series of Federal Laws including “On Limited Liability Companies” «On the State Registration of the Legal Entities and Sole Entrepreneurs »,"On Amendments to the Federal Law to the Law On State Registration of Legal Entities”. All above laws were designed to streamline the entire process of formation of legal entities that existed in previous years and to organize the process of formation in accordance with so-called “single window principle".


The state registration of legal entities is carried out by the Federal Tax Authority of the Russian Federation. This state body has the responsibility for maintaining public register containing information on the establishment, reorganization and liquidation of legal entities. At this moment the most frequently used form of the legal form of a legal entity in Russia is a limited liability company (Russian abbreviation is OOO).

If the foreign company is planning to work on the territory of the Russian Federation, there are two options: to register a new legal entity (LLC with 100% foreign investment), or get accreditation for the branch or representative office.
