Visiting a notary, registering with the commercial register and obtaining a tax number is a process. The surprise comes afterwards: your invoice template, accounting flow, website imprint and contract texts do not yet know the new entity exists.
Whether you set up a GmbH, a UG or a branch of the existing company is not only a legal question. The choice determines which fields are mandatory on an invoice, how the books are kept and who appears in the imprint. We do not make that decision, but we plan its technical consequences from the start.
Formation and ongoing accounting run through our partner practice; regulated tax work is carried out by a licensed partner firm; legal questions go to partner law firms. OzyCore coordinates the three and builds the digital side. We spell this out because tax and legal advice are regulated professions in Germany and we do not provide them.
The new company details have to hold everywhere: invoice template and numbering, the route documents take to accounting, imprint and privacy notice, domain and business email, the account holder at your payment provider. Each is a small task on its own; handled separately they stay half-finished for months.
The formation itself runs through our partner practice, where the notary and register steps happen. OzyCore takes on the coordination and builds the digital work that follows. You get one point of contact throughout, while the regulated steps stay with the side licensed to perform them.
For some activities yes, for others no, and it depends on your case. An influencer campaign, for example, does not require a German entity on your side. Permanent sales, issuing local invoices or hiring change the answer; we settle that with a partner law firm rather than guessing.
Tell us which stage you are at. We will say which step genuinely comes next, including when the answer is that you do not need us yet.
