Start preparing documents by resolving the issue with the legal address of the future company. It’s easier if you own non-residential premises or plan to register a company at your home address (check the possibility of this in your tax). In other cases, find a room where you will carry out activities, agree with the owner regarding the lease and ask him for a letter of guarantee on the conclusion of a lease after registering the company and a copy of the certificate of ownership.

2

Prepare the constituent documents of the company. You can take a standard set as a basis (Charter, decision of the founder or the general meeting of founders, memorandum of association). If necessary, make your changes to the standard documents, but be sure to coordinate them with a lawyer. Sign all documents in the presence of a notary who will certify your signatures.

Deposit authorized capital. If you prefer to deposit it in money, open a savings account in any bank, deposit the required amount on it (at least 10 thousand, there is no upper limit, focus on the size of the authorized capital prescribed in the charter of your future company, in practice, they are usually satisfied with the minimum size).

Prepare a package of documents on the authorized capital, if you deposit it with property. These are acts of valuation and acceptance of property on the balance sheet of a future firm, where the name of each unit of property, year of issue, if applicable, value should be indicated. Property is more expensive than 20 thousand rubles. should be evaluated by an independent specialist. If it’s cheaper (in practice it’s enough to evaluate at 10 thousand rubles, if the authorized capital is equal to this amount, for example, a computer), it’s enough to evaluate the founders themselves or the sole founder.
