Frequently asked questions — Create a company in Luxembourg from France

Can a French person create a company in Luxembourg without living there

Yes. Residence is not required to create a company in Luxembourg. You must have a registered office address (domiciliation), a Luxembourg bank account and, depending on the activity, a business permit. Fidustra coordinates everything from France.

What is the creation time for a non-resident

The deadline is generally 6 to 10 weeks for a non-resident, compared to 3 to 6 weeks for a resident. The longest step is often opening the bank account (4 to 8 weeks), which requires a complete KYC file. Fidustra prepares this file in advance to reduce delays.

What is the minimum capital to create a company in Luxembourg from France

The minimum capital depends on the form chosen: 1 € for a SARL-S, 12 000 € for an SARL, 31 000 € for an SA. The capital is deposited in a blocked Luxembourg bank account before signing the statutes with the notary.

Do you have to travel to Luxembourg to create your company

One or more trips may be necessary depending on the bank chosen (KYC appointment) and for the signing of the statutes at the notary. Fidustra anticipates these constraints and prepares each meeting to optimize them. Some steps can be managed remotely.
