Limited Liability Company (LLC) Formation

As your business grows and your customer base becomes more corporate, your legal and financial structure should evolve accordingly. A Limited Liability Company (LLC) is one of the most popular business structures, offering enhanced credibility while protecting shareholders through limited liability.

Why Choose a Limited Liability Company (LLC)?

An LLC is an excellent choice for B2B businesses, e-commerce brands, technology startups, and entrepreneurs seeking to work with larger corporate clients or participate in commercial tenders. Unlike sole proprietorships, where income is taxed progressively, LLCs are generally subject to corporate income tax, providing greater tax efficiency for businesses with higher profitability.

One of the greatest advantages of an LLC is liability protection. Except for certain legal obligations under applicable regulations, shareholders are generally liable only up to the amount of their capital contribution, helping protect their personal assets from business liabilities.

How Does the LLC Formation Process Work in 2026?

Establishing an LLC involves a more comprehensive legal process than registering a sole proprietorship. With our experienced CPA team, we manage every step efficiently on your behalf.

  • Articles of Association: We prepare your company's Articles of Association through the MERSIS system, including the company name, registered address, business activities (NACE codes), share capital, and company directors.
  • Chamber of Commerce Registration: Your company is officially incorporated by completing registration with the Chamber of Commerce and the Trade Registry.
  • Tax Registration: Following incorporation, we complete your tax registration through the Interactive Tax Office (IVD), finalize the digital inspection process, and obtain your tax certificate.
  • Corporate Bank Account & Share Capital: We assist with opening your company's official bank account so your business can begin operations. Under the 2026 regulations, the minimum share capital is TRY 50,000, which must be deposited into the company's bank account within the legally specified period.

Documents Required to Establish an LLC

The required documents may vary depending on the number and structure of shareholders, but generally include the following:

  • Copies of identification documents and e-Government credentials for all shareholders and company directors.
  • A lease agreement or title deed for the registered business address, including virtual or physical office arrangements.
  • The proposed company name, share capital amount, and shareholder ownership percentages.
  • A notarized power of attorney authorizing your CPA to complete the incorporation procedures on your behalf.

Corporate Accounting & Financial Management

LLCs are legally required to maintain double-entry bookkeeping and electronic accounting records. Proper management of e-Invoicing, e-Archive invoices, payroll, VAT returns, withholding tax, provisional tax, and corporate income tax filings is essential for regulatory compliance and financial stability. Our CPA team manages every aspect of your financial obligations accurately, transparently, and in full compliance with current legislation.
