To register a Société à Responsabilité Limitée (SARL) in France, several essential documents must be prepared and submitted to the relevant authorities. These documents ensure legal compliance and establish the company’s identity and structure.
Articles of Association (Statuts de la société) – This foundational document outlines the company’s purpose, capital, management, and shareholder responsibilities. It must be signed by all shareholders.
Proof of Identity – All shareholders and managers (gérants) must provide valid identification, such as a passport or national ID card. Non-residents may also need to provide proof of address.
Declaration of Non-Conviction and Filings – The company manager must submit a signed declaration stating they have no criminal record or legal disqualifications.
Proof of Registered Office (Domiciliation) – A lease agreement, property deed, or domiciliation contract must confirm the company’s legal address in France.
Capital Deposit Certificate – A certificate from a bank or notary showing that the share capital has been deposited in a business account.
M0 Form – This is the official registration form used to declare the creation of a new business.
These documents are submitted to the Centre de Formalités des Entreprises (CFE) or online via the guichet unique. Proper documentation ensures a smooth process of SARL registration in France.
