We provide services of changing the participants (founders) of the company. We will help you save time and prepare all necessary documents as soon as possible.

The service is available in Lviv and other cities of the Western region (Ivano-Frankivsk, Uzhgorod, Mukachevo, Lutsk, Chernivtsi, Ternopil, Khmelnytsky, Rivne).

During business activity a need to change the participants may. The order and procedure of changing the founders depends on the legal form of the organization. For example, in case of a joint stock companiy the change of the members does not require state registration, so a shareholder is the one who owns shares of a company.

In case of a limited liability company the change the founders must be registered, reflected in the constituent documents and included in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities and Individual Entrepreneurs (USREOU).

THE REASONS FOR CHANGING THE FOUNDERS MAY BE:

  • The leave of one of the founding members of the LLC;
  • The entrance of the new partner to the LLC;
  • The changes in shares of the LLC members;
  • The change in ownership of the company (alienation of the partner’s share).

There is an erroneous idea that the entity is the subject of sale. This is contrary to current legislation of Ukraine. In fact, under the sale of the company there is mean an alienation (donation, sale) of the founders’ (participants) the corporate rights to the third parties. The most simple form of changing the company’s partner is an alienation of his share of capital, which implies the need for changes to the constituent documents of a limited liability company.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to change LLC participants or founders in Ukraine?
The fee depends on the method chosen (share sale, entry of a new participant, withdrawal, gift deed) and whether a notary or Diia is used, so an exact price is quoted after reviewing the charter and current USR extract; leave a request to get a fixed quote.
What documents are needed to change the participants or founders of an LLC?
You need the current USR extract, the LLC charter (or model charter reference), the participant's decision or minutes on the change, a notarized share sale or transfer agreement, and the registration application form for the state registrar; a passport/ID and tax number are required for each new participant.
How long does it take to register a change of participants in the Unified State Register?
A state registrar or TsNAP administrator generally processes a correctly filed change within about 24 hours (excluding weekends and holidays); delays occur mainly if the notarized transfer deed or charter amendments are incomplete.
Can a foreigner become a participant or founder of a Ukrainian LLC?
Yes, a foreign individual or legal entity can be a participant of a Ukrainian LLC; a foreign national needs a valid passport, a Ukrainian tax number (registration number issued by the State Tax Service), and, if signing in Ukraine, a notarized and translated power of attorney or personal presence before a notary.
Is a notary always required to change LLC founders in Ukraine?
A notary is required for the share sale/transfer agreement itself, but the registration of the change with the state registrar can be filed electronically through Diia or in person at a TsNAP once the notarized documents and updated charter (if changed) are ready.
