Support Throughout the
Company Lifecycle

From setting up and organising a business, through changes during its operations, to an orderly closure, each stage requires coordination between registration, accounting, tax and financial processes. Veda helps plan and coordinate these steps as one connected process.

Company Formation & Closure in Serbia

 

Veda Group supports local and international founders and business owners with company formation, corporate changes and business closure in Serbia. Our support covers registration, accounting and tax steps – from choosing the appropriate legal form and registration, through setting up business operations, to liquidation of a company or deregistration of an entrepreneur.

Where legal documents or legal advice are required, we coordinate the process with appropriate legal professionals.

Choosing the Right Legal Form

Before registration, it is important to understand the differences between available legal forms and their accounting, tax and operational implications.

We can help founders assess the relevant accounting and tax aspects of the available options and involve legal professionals where legal advice is required.

Registration, Changes & Start of Operations

Limited Liability Company (DOO) Formation

We support the establishment of limited liability companies, including coordination of registration and the accounting and tax steps required to start operations.

Entrepreneur Registration

We support entrepreneur registration and the organisation of business operations, including consideration of the accounting and tax regime relevant to the specific activity.

Branches & Representative Offices of Foreign Companies

We support foreign companies establishing a presence in Serbia through a branch or representative office, including the related registration, accounting and tax steps.

Associations & Foundations

We support the establishment and organisation of the accounting and tax processes of associations and foundations.

Corporate & Registry Changes

After formation, we can also support changes to registered information and other corporate and administrative procedures, including changes of registered office, director, company name, business activity, members or ownership structure, as well as other changes registered with the Serbian Business Registers Agency (APR).

Where legal documents or legal advice are required, we involve appropriate legal professionals.

Tax Registrations & Records

  • VAT registration
  • procedures related to the Serbian tax identification number (PIB)
  • beneficial ownership registration
  • other tax and registration procedures required when starting or changing a business

Bank Account Opening Support

We can assist with preparing and coordinating the documentation required to open a business bank account and with communication with the bank during the process.

The decision to open an account is made by the bank in accordance with its own procedures and requirements.

Company Liquidation & Entrepreneur Deregistration

Closing a business requires coordination of registration, tax, accounting and financial obligations. The appropriate procedure depends on the legal form, tax status and specific circumstances of the business.

Veda helps plan and carry out the required steps in the proper sequence, coordinating with legal professionals where legal documentation or advice is required.

Liquidation of DOO and Other Companies

We manage the accounting and tax steps throughout the liquidation process, from preparation through final obligations and deletion of the company from the register. Where necessary, we coordinate the process with legal professionals.

Entrepreneur Deregistration

We help ensure that the closure of an entrepreneur's business is carried out properly and without unnecessary complications, including a review of tax obligations, preparation of filings and the documentation required for deregistration.

Tax & Accounting Closure

Removal from the register is only one part of the process. We ensure that accounting records, financial statements and tax returns are properly closed and reconciled, and that business documentation is systematically organised and archived.

Liquidation Is Not Appropriate in Every Situation

Before starting the process, the company's financial, tax and legal position should be reviewed in order to determine the appropriate method of business closure.

Where regular liquidation is not applicable, other options should be considered with appropriate legal support.

Company Formation for International Founders

Foreign founders often need more than company registration. They need a local partner who can connect registration with accounting, tax, payroll, banking and day-to-day financial processes. Veda can coordinate these processes and continue to provide local accounting, tax and financial support after the company is established.

Registration Is Only One of the Steps

Establishing a company requires accounting, tax, payroll and financial operations to be organised properly from the outset.

During the life of the business, registry changes may arise, and when the time comes to close the business, the final steps also need to be handled properly.

Veda connects these processes into one coordinated whole.
