Business transfer solutions in Luxembourg

The procedure of shifting control from one management entity to another, which is called a business transfer, includes different approaches. Whether it involves changing ownership, assets, moving the business, or transferring share capital, each step results in major changes for those involved with the company.

Our business transfer solutions

Our business transfer solutions in Luxembourg offer detailed plans to assist with different aspects of transitioning a business. We provide customized strategies to address transferring ownership, assets, relocating operations, and managing share capital, all tailored to your specific needs and objectives.

Transfer business ownership

We have a solution available for transferring ownership of a business in Luxembourg, which entails passing control and decision-making power from one owner or group to another. The process generally requires legal contracts and discussions to guarantee a smooth handover of ownership rights, duties, and assets. Possible choices include selling the business outright, passing ownership to family members or employees, or merging with another company.

Transfer business assets

Our method for moving business assets in Luxembourg involves transferring both physical and non-physical assets from one entity to another. This includes property, equipment, inventory, intellectual property, customer contracts, and goodwill. By carefully documenting, valuing, and following legal procedures, we guarantee the assets are accounted for and protected throughout the transfer process.

Move business to new location

We provide a complete package for companies seeking to move to a different area. This includes meticulously coordinating and planning the relocation of operations, whether it be in the same city, across the country, or overseas. Our method aims to reduce disruptions to business activities, maintain customer relationships, and guarantee a seamless transition of assets, staff, and services to the new site.

Transfer share capital

The method we offer for transferring share capital in Luxembourg makes it easier to buy, sell, or transfer ownership interests in a company by exchanging shares. This can be done through private transactions among current shareholders, public offerings on stock exchanges, or in the context of mergers and acquisitions. We guarantee adherence to securities regulations and shareholder agreements to safeguard ownership structures and voting rights within the company during the share capital transfer process.

Transfer agreement and documents

In order to facilitate the process of transferring all assets and liabilities from one company to another through a Business Transfer Agreement (BTA), the following documents are necessary to schedule a meeting at the notary’s office:

  • Passport
  • Utility bills of the company such as an electric bill or phone bill
  • A document providing all of terms and conditions for business transfer

Depending on the specific situation, further documentation may be required.

We provide help in organizing all required documents and determining key elements like market price, payment method, and transfer date.

Key points of business transfer in Luxembourg

When preparing for a transfer of responsibilities within a company in Luxembourg, keep in mind the following factors:

1

Assess your company’s actual worth

Evaluating your company's true value requires a thorough assessment of different aspects, such as financial performance, assets, liabilities, market position, and growth potential. Analyzing the market value and potential selling price will help you make well-informed decisions about the future of your business.

2

Evaluate options for passing the organization

Consider different alternatives for transitioning the company, such as selling the business, passing it on to family or employees, merging with another company, or attracting external investors.

3

Time consumed

Please keep in mind that the transfer of ownership can potentially last up to 5 years in Luxembourg, so make sure to plan ahead and allocate enough time for discussions, legal steps, and handovers.

4

Understand taxes of enterprise handover

Get to know the taxes related to transferring ownership of a business in Luxembourg, such as government fees for transferring ownership of specific goods and selling part of a business.

5

Identify possible buyers

Find possible purchasers for your company in Luxembourg, such as individuals, businesses, or investment companies looking to buy or invest in your company.

6

Evaluate financing options

Investigate different ways to finance the handover process, such as using your own funds for part of the deal or securing financing from the new management or investors, particularly if you have ongoing ties to the company post-transaction.

By taking these factors into account and arranging for legal advice, you can confidently manage the intricacies of transferring a business in Luxembourg and guarantee a smooth transition for everyone involved.
