Business Registration – how to?

Registering a business is the first hurdle to self-employment for many start-ups. To register a business in Germany, there are various requirements and different offices to be observed, such as the regulatory agency. You will also have to pay costs and some documents. Our relocation service and start-up advice not only helps you to draw up a business plan and a viability analysis, but also accompanies you in registering your business, filling out forms and not losing track of things.
