Just want to get star­ted with your idea?

The busi­ness idea is ready, but the path to set­ting up a com­pany feels like a mara­thon full of bur­eau­cracy and paper­work. Why make it so com­plic­ated if you just want to get star­ted?
Clock

Do you think your com­pet­it­ors could be faster?

While you are still wait­ing for the go-ahead, someone else could already be put­ting the same idea into prac­tice. Time is more than money here — it’s the com­pet­it­ive advant­age you don’t want to lose.
Break 3

You don’t want to wait up to 6 months for your com­pany?

Months often pass between regis­tra­tion and mar­ket entry. Months in which valu­able oppor­tun­it­ies go unutil­ised — and the com­pet­i­tion never sleeps.

Don’t want to take care of the bank account as well?

After all the pre­par­a­tions, the last thing you need is a lengthy account open­ing pro­cess. But this often takes weeks — and delays the start of your busi­ness even fur­ther.

What our cus­tom­ers are say­ing.

Our cus­tom­ers’ exper­i­ences speak for them­selves: com­pany regis­tra­tion Ger­many has never been easier. From the swift trans­fer of a GmbH or UG to per­son­al­ized sup­port – Start­bereit stands for easy, seam­less, and reli­able com­pany form­a­tion. Learn how we’ve sup­por­ted founders on their jour­ney and why they con­tinue to recom­mend us.

As a UK based star­tup branch­ing out into Ger­many, nav­ig­at­ing the Ger­man bur­eau­cracy to estab­lish a com­pany seemed daunt­ing. Start­bereit made the pro­cess incred­ibly smooth and effi­cient. By acquir­ing a shelf com­pany through them, we bypassed much of the ini­tial paper­work and time-con­sum­ing steps. Their team provided clear guid­ance and sup­port through­out, mak­ing the entire exper­i­ence less pain­ful. We highly recom­mend Start­bereit to any for­eign owner look­ing for a stream­lined and reli­able way to set up a busi­ness in Ger­many.

I thought set­ting up a com­pany in 24 hours was impossible in Ger­many. But Start­bereit makes it hap­pen and it’s really simple and digital.

Car­olin Neu­mann

CEO

Enter­ing the Ger­man mar­ket for the first time seemed over­whelm­ing and bur­eau­cratic. Start­bereit made it easy for us at Temple Future Own­ers to nav­ig­ate the chal­lenges, help­ing us set up quickly and without the usual paper­work. We’re grate­ful we found this solu­tion, sav­ing us valu­able time that would have oth­er­wise been lost in lengthy pro­cesses.

For me, set­ting up a GmbH always involved an end­less amount of bur­eau­cracy. With start­bereit, it was all done digit­ally and thanks to the step by step guidelines, I was done and became the CEO of my GmbH sur­pris­ingly quickly.
