The SARL-S (Société à Responsabilité Limitée Simplifiée) is Luxembourg’s most accessible legal structure for entrepreneurs, freelancers, and startups. Created in 2017 under the Law of 1915, the SARL-S was designed to make company formation faster, cheaper, and more flexible.
Unlike traditional structures, the SARL-S requires a minimum share capital of just €1 (up to €11,999), making it one of the easiest ways to start a business in Europe. Entrepreneurs benefit from limited liability protection, simplified incorporation procedures, and a business structure that is recognized across the EU.
If your goal is to launch quickly, minimize costs, and stay compliant, the SARL-S in Luxembourg is the right choice.
