How we helped a travel company open a business in France  

Our client is an international travel company that organizes Segway tours. Having already had successful offices in Brussels and Germany, the company's founder decided to open a branch in Paris to attract new clients and develop the business.

However, the founder's status as a German citizen without a residence permit in France posed a serious challenge to the implementation of this plan.

Problem

For company registration in France it is necessary to open a professional bank account, where the authorized capital is contributed. The client encountered a number of obstacles:

1. Bank refusal: French banks are not prepared to work with non-residents, especially without local documents.
2. Problems with proof of residence: To submit an application, banks required a document confirming the client's address in Germany, which had to be no older than three months. However, such documents are difficult to obtain in Germany: the client was not included in the rental contract and had no recent utility bills.
3. Delays: Banks repeatedly requested additional documents, which threatened to delay registration.

Solution

To overcome these difficulties, we developed a detailed plan and offered the client several solutions:

1. Search for alternative banks: We analyzed the conditions of traditional banks and online banks, which allowed us to find a suitable option.
2. Remote Bank: Thanks to our connections, we came to an agreement with an online bank that agreed to open an account for contributing the authorized capital. This helped avoid significant costs for hiring a lawyer.
3. Documentation: We helped the client collect the required proof of residence. To speed up the process, we contacted the bank manager, provided explanations and ensured that the application was processed quickly.

Results

• Savings: The client did not have to involve lawyers to contribute the authorized capital.
• Fast company registration in france: After receiving the capital contribution certificate, all documents were submitted and the company was registered within one working week.
• Overcoming difficulties: Despite the client's lack of French documents and the complex requirements of the banks, the task was successfully completed.

The uniqueness of the approach

We not only took into account all the legal subtleties, but also found a non-standard solution that met the client's needs. Working with international documents, complex bank requirements and time constraints - our experience and flexibility allowed us to make the impossible possible.
