What kinds of corporate vehicles are available in Russia?

People sometimes want to register in other jurisdictions for reasons such as:

  • (1) minimum director requirements;
  • (2) favorable corporate taxes;
  • (3) employer or corporate incentives for hiring locally, among others.

The article Russian Federation: Company Formation In Russia describes the various corporate vehicles available in Russia, including a Russian joint stock company, a Russian limited liability company and a non-Russian company with a wholly-owned Russian operating subsidiary. The article discusses the difference between these companies, and the method in which to incorporate them.
