Cambodia is one of the most developed countries in Southeast Asia. This jurisdiction is frequently underestimated but it offers pretty favorable conditions for doing business along with numerous tax benefits. Among the most developed sectors of the local economy, these ones should be listed in the first turn: agricultural, service sectors, and tourism. At the same time, many other industries have a huge potential for growth and are open to investments. So, company incorporation in Phnom Penh or any other city of this state is potentially associated with the subsequent benefits.
Why Set up a Business in Cambodia?
Any business decision associated with company incorporation in Cambodia can potentially bring these benefits to a foreign investor:
openness to foreign capital and minimal bureaucracy;
100% foreign ownership is allowed;
high-quality and reliable banking services, Internet banking is available;
absence of currency control limitations.
Legal and Organizational Forms in Cambodia
If you wish to create/buy a company in Cambodia or establish your official presence in any other acceptable way, these forms are open for this purpose:
Private limited company – the most widespread form of doing business because of the narrowed monetary obligations that it envisages for the founders. They will not bear any liabilities in excess of the funds contributed to the project. According to Cambodian laws, a minimum of KHR 4 million (approximately USD 1,000) is compulsory in this case. This entity may have 2-30 members of any nationality.
Branch – a simplified and quick-to-register alternative to a corporate entity. Any non-resident company may establish a branch (without a separate legal personality) in Cambodia. A branch is allowed to handle the same types of economic activities as abroad. It can foster cooperation with local partners and customers in a more effective way. No minimum capital requirements are envisaged in this case.
