Updated over 4 months ago

To open a Vivid Founder Account, you need to prepare the following documents, as applicable:

  • Satzung (Articles of Association):

    • This is a formal document that establishes the existence of a company and outlines its structure and purpose. It typically includes information about the company's name, registered office, share capital, and the responsibilities and powers of its shareholders and directors.

  • Gesellschaftsvertrag (Partnership Agreement):

    • This document is similar to the Articles of Association but is specifically used for partnerships. It details the rights and obligations of the partners, profit-sharing arrangements, and the procedures for making decisions and resolving disputes.

  • Musterprotokoll (Model Protocol):

    • This is a simplified template for founding a limited liability company (GmbH) in Germany. It combines the Articles of Association and the shareholder resolution in one document, which can streamline the incorporation process for small businesses with only one or a few shareholders.

  • Gründungsurkunde (Certificate of Incorporation):

    • This is the official document issued by the commercial register (Handelsregister) confirming the formation of the company. It serves as proof that the company legally exists and is registered.

  • Shareholder List:

    • This document lists all the company's shareholders and their respective ownership percentages or shares. It is important for legal and administrative purposes, ensuring transparency and clarity about who owns the company.
