How to register a Limited Company

Register a Limited Company easily

2

Sign the registration form

Connect your business account and you’re ready to go

Once Trade Register processing is complete, open a business account for your Limited Company and link it to your account. You’re now ready to start invoicing. Read more about UKKO Business Account.

4 good reasons to register a Limited Company

 

1. More room to grow

A Limited Company gives you the freedom to build your business for the long term. You can bring in shareholders, hire employees, and develop new revenue streams without your business structure holding you back. Securing financing is also typically more straightforward.

2. Easier financial planning

With a Limited Company, you decide when and how to take money out of the business. You can pay yourself a salary, distribute dividends, or keep funds in the company for future investments or slower periods. The company’s money is separate from your personal income.

3. Better protection for your personal finances

In a Limited Company, your liability for the company’s debts is generally limited to the capital you’ve invested. The company’s finances are kept separate from your own, which limits personal financial risk.

4. A more credible business partner

A Limited Company signals stability and long-term commitment. It makes collaboration easier — especially with larger companies — and lowers the barrier to winning new contracts.

Registering a Limited Company

Starting step by step

 

1.

Create an account and fill in your company details

Enter your company name, industry, and owners, and we’ll send you the registration details within a few days. The process is fully guided — you don’t need to know the bureaucratic ins and outs in advance.

We’ll only ask for what’s needed, including:

  • Company name and industry
  • Owners and number of shares
  • Board of directors and any managing director
  • Registration for VAT and the prepayment register

You can review all the details at your own pace before proceeding — we’ll guide you throughout.

2.

Sign and pay the government fee

You’ll receive the registration documents for electronic signing within a few days. At the same time, you pay the registration fee (€300). We don’t charge a separate fee for the registration — you only pay the government fee.

The payment counts as a business expense and is tax-deductible. Once payment is complete, we submit the application on your behalf.

3.

The PRH processes the application

The application moves to the PRH for processing, and we’ll notify you as soon as your Business ID has been assigned. Processing typically takes 1–2 weeks. You can also track the status yourself in the Virre information service.

4.

Open a business account and get started

 Limited Company needs a business account. The easiest option is to open a UKKO Business Account directly in the service — no long waiting times. You can start invoicing as soon as the account is open and connected to the service.

You can also use your own bank once Trade Register processing is complete. We work with a number of well-known banks, so connecting your account is straightforward (OP, Nordea, Danske Bank, Säästöpankki, POP Pankki, Holvi, and Revolut).

FAQ — Limited Companies

The Limited Company is the most common business structure in Finland. Unlike a Private Trader, a Limited Company is a separate legal entity from the entrepreneur. In practice, this means that the entrepreneur is not personally financially liable for the company’s commitments and obligations in the same way as when operating as a Private Trader. A Limited Company can be set up either alone or together with one or more other people.

A Limited Company is often a good choice when the business involves financial risks, when you want to grow the business, or when you want to keep the company’s finances clearly separate from your personal finances. The right business structure isn’t determined by a single income threshold, however — it also depends on factors such as taxation, financing needs, and future plans.

The key advantages of a Limited Company are generally limited personal liability and the fact that the company is taxed separately from the entrepreneur’s personal income. In many situations, a Limited Company can also support business growth and make the company structure clearer to partners and collaborators.

Registering a Limited Company through UKKO.fi is quick and straightforward.

When you submit an electronic registration application through us, you receive your Business ID immediately after signing and paying for the application. The actual registration with the Trade Register is completed according to the Finnish Patent and Registration Office (PRH) processing time, which varies slightly depending on current demand.

UKKO.fi makes the entire process as smooth and straightforward as possible from start to finish.

No, it isn’t required. A Limited Company is not obligated to have a managing director. The only mandatory body is the board of directors. A managing director is optional — the board can choose to appoint one to handle the day-to-day management of the company. However, the articles of association may include provisions requiring the appointment of a managing director.

A Limited Company is often the smart choice when your business activity is full-time, long-term, and growth-oriented.

A Limited Company is particularly well suited if you:

  • Plan to hire employees or expand your operations
  • Have financial risks involved in your business (such as large purchases or long-term contracts)
  • Are seeing income grow and want flexibility in profit distribution and tax planning
  • Are planning to bring in investors or shareholders
  • Operate in an industry where credibility matters
  • With a Limited Company, the company’s finances are kept separate from your personal finances, which provides protection in higher-risk situations. In return, there are more administrative obligations than with a Private Trader, such as the requirement to prepare annual accounts.
  • With UKKO Entrepreneur, however, managing a Limited Company stays straightforward — we handle the bookkeeping, regulatory filings, annual accounts, and payroll on your behalf.

Yes, you can register a Limited Company on your own in Finland. The Limited Liability Companies Act allows a single person to set up a Limited Company without any other shareholders. You will only need a deputy board member if you are acting as the sole board member. Registering a Limited Company electronically costs €300, and share capital is not required.
