Although an expansion to Ghana is a very exciting time for your company, there are many challenging aspects you’ll have to address before making the move. You’ll need to set aside weeks or possibly months to handle the entire Ghana subsidiary setup process before you can start working in the country.
G-P makes it easier and faster for companies to expand globally. As a global Employer of Record (EOR), you won’t have to go through the lengthy process of company registration in Ghana. When you partner with us, we’ll hire employees on your behalf so you can begin working in minutes, not months. Our goal is to manage risk and assure compliance, so that you can run a successful company.
How to set up a Ghana subsidiary
当您需要设立加纳子公司时,我们建议您在开始注册之前研究流程的某些方面。 Start by finding a location that’s friendly to international investment and that offers the right availability, costs, and other factors. Since different areas can have their own Ghana subsidiary laws, you should work with a consultant who can help you find the best location for your company.
加纳子公司的设立流程也因实体而异。 您可以合并为几种类型的实体之一,包括有限责任公司 (LLC)、公共有限责任公司、分公司或自由区公司。 有限责任公司是最受欢迎的选择,因为它提供了在加纳工作的灵活性和自由,就像一家常驻公司一样。
将您的加纳子公司设置为有限责任公司包括以下步骤:
- 注册您的办公室、主要营业地点和邮政地址
- 授权您的股份数量并发行
- 写下所有股东的姓名和地址
- 聘请公司秘书
- Filing and presenting documentation on the name of the company and the nature of the business
- Filing and documenting information on the minimum of 2 directors
- 归档和记录审计师的姓名和地址
- 获得注册证书并开始营业
- 获得公司法规的经认证真实副本
Ghana subsidiary laws
You’ll need to follow the subsidiary laws related to the entity you choose. For example, LLCs require at least 1 shareholder and 2 directors. All 3 can be citizens from other countries, but at least 1 of your directors has to live in Ghana. You’ll also need a minimum of USD 500,000 in paid-up share capital if you’re incorporating as a wholly owned international company. That number increases to USD 1 million if you’re setting up your subsidiary as a trading company. Citizens from other countries investing in a joint venture company with a Ghanaian citizen must contribute USD 200,000.
All LLCs in Ghana must appoint a company secretary and a licensed local auditor who can audit annual financial statements. 您还需要一个带有邮政信箱的注册办公室,用于所有通信和通知。 根据加纳的附属法律,所有法定和会计记录应保存在您的注册办公室。
Benefits of setting up a Ghana subsidiary
虽然成立加纳子公司可能需要一年时间,但您将在该国工作并从中受益。 As an LLC, you won’t have to worry about liability between the parent company and subsidiary, as both can operate somewhat independently.
The truth, however, is that you’ll get more benefits working with an EOR like G-P. Instead of establishing your own entity, you can use our Ghana subsidiary to work in the country. We’ll handle everything from payroll and taxes to hiring talented employees for you.
其他重要考虑因素
如果您决定在加纳设立自己的子公司,您应该提前计划成功。 首先确定注册流程所需的时间和资金。 然后,清除您的日程安排并留出适当的资金。 您还应该聘请加纳子公司法律方面的专家,帮助您保持合规。
