How does it work?
Get started online: Go to this page. From there, RAKETENSTART will take care of your incorporation.
Submit your company details: Answer a few questions about yourself, your co-founders, and your business project. Based on your answers, RAKETENSTART prepares all necessary documents within 2–4 days.
Notary appointment:
Your notary appointment will be arranged (online or in person) within 2–4 days. If you don’t speak German, you have two options:
Work with one of RAKETENSTART’s English-speaking notaries (availability may vary by location),
or Bring your own translator (subject to specific rules).
All your documents will already be prepared in the correct format — you just need to bring your ID.
Open your Vivid Account: Open a Vivid Account and deposit your share capital. Choose the “company in formation” option.
You’ll receive a DE-IBAN after your application is approved, so you can transfer your share capital right away.
Your Proof of Capital Contribution is generated automatically — simply download your account statement directly from your Founder Account. This document is required for registration.
Registration with authorities: RAKETENSTART submits your company entry to the Handelsregister, applies for a tax ID, and ensures your company is registered in the transparency register.
Upgrade to your Vivid Business Account:
Once your company is officially registered, simply upload the registration document to upgrade your Founder Account to a Business Account.
This unlocks all the business features you need to run your company.
The process typically takes 3 to 14 days, depending on your location, notary availability, and the registry court. This does not include the additional time needed for Vivid to review your registration document and upgrade your Founder Account to a Business Account.
What are the fees?
RAKETENSTART offers two packages, depending on your company setup:
€199, net — Solo founder package
€399, net — Team package (2+ founders)
These fees exclude notary and registry charges, which are billed separately by RAKETENSTART. More details here.
