In short

The choice of structure (legal form and vehicle) depends on the objective (activity, holding, wealth, fund, real estate), the partners' profile and the available capital. In Luxembourg the most common forms are the SARL, SARL-S, SA, and, for holding, the SOPARFI or SPF.

Legal basis

Company forms governed by the amended law of 10 August 1915. Indicative minimum capital: SARL-S from EUR 1 to 12,000, SARL EUR 12,000, SA EUR 30,000. The SOPARFI is a holding regime (usually a SARL or SA); the SPF is a non-commercial private wealth vehicle.

Key takeaway

  • The right vehicle depends on objective, profile and capital, not a single rule.
  • The simulator gives indicative guidance, not definitive advice.
  • We validate and implement the structure end to end.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is the simulator result advice?
No. It is indicative guidance based on general rules. The final choice depends on your full situation (tax, partners, objectives) and personalised scoping.
SARL or SARL-S?
The SARL-S targets individuals starting with reduced capital (EUR 1 to 12,000) for an activity requiring a business licence; the SARL is the versatile standard from EUR 12,000 capital.
When to choose an SA?
For capital of at least EUR 30,000, a fundraise, board governance or more flexibility on shares.
SOPARFI or SPF?
The SOPARFI is fully taxable, commercial and treaty-eligible, ideal to hold active participations; the SPF is reserved for non-commercial private wealth management.
