If you already had experience opening a business in Russia, then it will be easy for you to open a business in Germany. The algorithm for its discovery is the same: search for a business idea, development of a business plan, registration, selection of premises and employees (if necessary). Do what you like and what you do. In large cities in Germany, as in Russia, much can take root - from a hairdresser to a real estate agency.

Remember that Germany supports business, and that there are no obstacles to the business opened by foreigners. Therefore, on the legal side, you, as well as the Germans, will simply need to register a company - GmbH (an analogue of our LLC). Its authorized capital is quite large (25, 000 euros), but at the time of registration you can pay only half and start working.

It should be borne in mind that several months may elapse between the start of the preparation of company documents by lawyers and the registration itself. By law, these months you already have the right to do business. In the documents you must indicate that you are in a state of registration.

To register a company, you will also need a CEO. It may be a person who has the right to work in Germany.

Company registration and obtaining all the necessary licenses in Germany should be obtained by professionals. It can cost 3000-5000 euros, but it saves you from having to delve into all the processes in person, especially if you do not know German very well.

If you do not want to start a business from scratch, then you can buy a ready-made German business. This is done through intermediary companies selling businesses, or directly. Whichever way you choose, hire lawyers to conduct an audit of the acquired business in order to avoid problems when buying a pig in a poke. Buying a business will allow you to avoid the cash and time costs of finding premises, equipment, staff, advertising.

Doing business in Germany will provide you with a business multivisa. And if you can invest 250, 000 euros or more in the German economy, you will have every chance of obtaining a residence permit.
