Establishment of the European Company SE

Establishment of the European Company SE

SE (Societas Europaea) has the form of a joint-stock company, but its business is based on the law of the European Community (in order to facilitate the free movement of capital within the EU and to unify the legal standards of commercial companies in the EU).

European society is considered to be the so-called a multinational European equivalent of a joint-stock company , which is registered in the commercial register in the state of its seat. Slovakia is governed by Act No. 562/2004 Coll. on the European Company, which entered into force in September 2004 in conjunction with the Commercial Code, Council Regulation (EC) No. 2157/2001 on European company statutes and Council Directive 2001/856/EC. The status of a European company is determined for the most part by the legal order of the state in which it has its registered office. The share capital of an SE (European Company) is at least EUR 120,000.

As the first type of multinational trading company, it brings great benefits to businesses. The possibility of moving the seat without complications , or the possibility of carrying out a cross-border merger are among the most important. The European company is also considered a symbol of a united Europe .

The establishment of an SE is a relatively demanding process, as the share capital of EUR 120,000 must be deposited and the establishment is also conditional on the merger of 2 companies. For this reason, it is common practice to buy an already established company, the so-called Ready made.
