Establish a Subsidiary in Russia

 

Both domestic and international entrepreneurs have the same business rights in Russia, however, they need to choose the proper entity that suits most their needs and activities they want to develop. In this case, it is recommended to understand in the first place the differences, the advantages and disadvantages of branches and subsidiaries in Russia. For example, a branch will completely depend on the parent company, compared to the subsidiary which is 100% independent. In matters of registration costs, branches are more expensive compared to subsidiaries. Also, there are restrictions when it comes to licenses and permits, meaning that branches cannot perform specific operations, a matter where subsidiaries are advantageous. A branch will only have to develop the specific activities as established by the foreign company, while the subsidiary in Russia is free to change the operations or add new ones if it is the case. As for the taxation of these entities, the profits of subsidiaries are protected by the double taxation treaties signed by Russia with countries worldwide, while branches will only pay the taxes imposed on the incomes registered in Russia. Subsidiaries are flexible business forms with lots of benefits, and the possibility of activating in numerous industries in Russia. The incorporation is not complex and it can be done with the help of a single shareholder or more. Do not hesitate to ask for more details about each entity, if you need recommendations in terms of business and company registration of a branch or a subsidiary in Russia. Our support can be immediately offered to foreign investors, alongside legal advice provided by our local team of attorneys in Russia.
