Registration of a farm enterprise involves legal formalization with government authorities. This provides the legal basis for conducting activities related to agricultural products – their production, processing and sale.
A farm enterprise is a form of entrepreneurship. Its feature is that founders can only be natural persons, and moreover, they must be members of the same family or relatives. All adult legally capable citizens of Ukraine have the right to establish a farm.
When establishing a farm, persons wishing to engage in such activity are granted by the state a land plot either in ownership or lease, which is confirmed by a state act of ownership or a lease agreement. Thus, citizens are encouraged to create farms in Ukraine!
If you are considering how to register a farm enterprise, we are ready to help. The main thing to know is that the establishment of a farm must include its state registration. However, beforehand a founders’ meeting must be held to decide a number of important issues: determine the name, location, approve the charter, elect governing bodies, determine how the farm will be organized, and appoint the circle of persons who will be employed by the farm (by the way, such persons cannot become its members). The documentary result of the meeting will be the charter and the minutes.
After the meeting, the person who handles its registration (a representative-lawyer or one of the members) collects and submits the documents to the registrar:
- registration card for the creation of a legal entity;
- founders’ decision – Minutes of the meeting;
- charter in two copies;
- the head’s passport;
- if the documents are submitted by a representative, then the representative’s passport and a power of attorney.
To establish a legal entity, our specialists independently prepare, process and submit the necessary documents. Estimated timeframes are 3-5 working days. However, we still require minimal involvement from you in the process, namely:
- granting us authority – signing a power of attorney at a notary;
- personal participation of the head when opening accounts.
Our lawyers thoroughly know the procedure for registering a farm, prepare documents professionally and handle their processing as quickly as possible, which results in no refusals from government authorities.
If you intend to save your nerves and avoid going through all the instances in government bodies, to order the service send us the following information by email:
- founders’ decision;
- desired shares in the capital;
- location (legal address);
- business activities of the enterprise;
