The branch will act as the Latvian counterpart of the foreign company. It will be an independent unit in terms of location but it will depend on the parent company in case of liabilities. All of its activities will be conducted on behalf of the main company and according to the existing business and management plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An important&nbsp;<strong>advantage of opening a branch in Latvia in 2024<\/strong>&nbsp;is that this business form has lighter incorporation and reporting requirements compared to a subsidiary which acts as an independent Latvian company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.companyformationlatvia.com\/register-company-latvia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Company registration in Latvia<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;is a simple process for a branch and one of our agents can assist you throughout the needed steps.&nbsp;You can also avail of the services of our&nbsp;<strong>accounting firm in Latvia<\/strong>&nbsp;if you need help with the accounting of your branch office in this country. Please keep in mind that Accounting should be kept on the territory of Latvia in the local language. Accounting records must be made available upon request to the State Revenue Service, for instance, in the event of a tax audit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"conditions-for-operating-a-branch-in-latvia\"><\/span><strong>Conditions for operating a branch in Latvia<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A few formalities need to be observed when&nbsp;<strong>registering a branch of a foreign company in Latvia in 2024<\/strong>. The corporation opens the branch through a special Decision which is submitted together with the rest of the incorporation documents. The next step is to draw up the articles of association and to sign the documents in front of a notary public. Once it is registered with the Latvian Commercial Registry, the branch can begin its business activities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The branch needs to have a registered address in Latvia and it will be registered for tax and VAT purposes. Such registration with the State Revenue Service is required for VAT purposes, and VAT returns must be filed every month. Taxation in Latvia will fall under the provisions of a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.companyformationlatvia.com\/double-tax-treaties-latvia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>double tax treaty<\/strong><\/a>, should this type of agreement exist between the foreign company&#8217;s country of origin and Latvia. It also needs to observe the ongoing requirements for employment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Branches in Latvia<\/strong> are not legal entities. As such, the foreign company is accountable for the obligations arising from the activities of these branches established in Latvia. However, the <strong>branches in Latvia<\/strong> are seen as separate taxpayers. Therefore, at the liquidation process of a branch, the parent enterprise cannot be entitled to accept overpaid taxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"documents-required-to-open-a-branch-in-latvia\"><\/span><strong>Documents required to open a branch in Latvia<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A foreign or local company seeking to&nbsp;<strong>set up a branch office in Latvia in 2024 <\/strong>must submit various documents to the local office of the Trade Register in order to obtain the Certificate of Registration. However, the dossier with the papers to file is easy to compile which is why the establishment of such an entity is also rather simple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the documents to prepare and file when&nbsp;<strong>opening a Latvian branch office<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>the details of the parent company (name, address, registration number);<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the parent company\u2019s Certificate of Registration (a notarized copy);<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the resolution through which the opening of the branch office was decided and approved;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the document attesting to the appointment of a Latvian representative for the branch;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>information about the person appointed to represent the branch;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>details about the branch (Latvian legal address, trading name).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>The creation of the branch office will be then completed in a matter of days. In case you are interested in opening a branch office in a neighboring country, for example in Lithuania, we recommend <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/companyformationlithuania.com\">our Lithuanian partners who are experts in company formation<\/a><\/strong> matters &#8211; <strong>CompanyFormationLithuania.com.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With respect to the person in charge of&nbsp;<strong>registration<\/strong>&nbsp;and activities, once the&nbsp;<strong>branch office<\/strong>&nbsp;is up and running, this can be a Latvian citizen or an employee of the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.companyformationlatvia.com\/establish-subsidiary-latvia\"><strong>foreign company<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;sent to&nbsp;<strong>Latvia<\/strong>. In the case of EU citizens, the intra-company transfer is easy to complete, however, in the case of non-EU citizens, a work permit must be obtained first. However, the procedure is not complicated, as Latvia is welcoming to overseas investors and workers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Foreign entrepreneurs wanting to <strong>open a branch in Latvia<\/strong> should also consider the immigration requirement, particularly if they come from non-EU countries. As such, the type D visa should be obtained if they intend to live more than 3 months in Latvia. Such a visa is also known as a Schengen visa which allows free movement throughout the Schengen area.\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our&nbsp;<strong>company formation agents in Latvia<\/strong>&nbsp;can also represent foreign companies interested in opening branches in this country.

In the case of a branch office, the name will usually be the same as the parent company\u2019s, however, the reservation still needs to be completed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are also cases where the name can already be taken, a case in which the&nbsp;<strong>Latvian branch office<\/strong>&nbsp;will bear a different name. However, this is seldom the case, as most companies register their names as trademarks and obtain international recognition for them to ensure the security of their brands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to&nbsp;<strong>open a branch in Latvia<\/strong>, our specialists can perform trading name checks and let you know if the name you selected can be used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"opening-a-bank-account-for-a-branch-in-latvia\"><\/span><strong>Opening a bank account for a branch in Latvia<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the main particularities of&nbsp;<strong>creating a branch office in Latvia<\/strong>&nbsp;is that this entity is not required to have a local bank account, as it can also use the parent company\u2019s account. However, the representative must convey the bank account number to the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vid.gov.lv\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Latvian Tax Authorities<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most<strong> foreign companies operating in Latvia<\/strong> decide to set up bank accounts with banks here, as they can use the services of local or foreign financial institutions if the latter also have offices in their home countries. Apart from this, Latvia has one of the most advanced and modern banking systems in Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Foreign entrepreneurs wanting to<strong> open a branch in Latvia <\/strong>should also consider the immigration requirement, particularly if they come from non-EU countries.
