Sale of a company: Change of founder and transfer of shares

The sale of a company is an important business process that involves the transfer of ownership shares from the current founder to another party. Although it may seem straightforward, this process requires careful planning and proper preparation of documentation in order to protect the interests of both parties.

Below is an overview of the key steps in the process of selling a company and changing the founder.

 

1. TRANSFER OF SHARES

The transfer of ownership shares can be carried out in two ways:

If the transfer is carried out with compensation, proof of payment must be provided as part of the official documentation.

 

2. NOTARIZATION OF THE AGREEMENT

The share transfer agreement must be notarized. This makes the agreement legally valid and protects all parties involved. Notarization reduces the risk of disputes and ensures clearly defined rights and obligations.

 

3. SETTLEMENT OF TAX AND OTHER LIABILITIES

Before transferring shares, it is necessary to check and settle all company obligations.

This is why it is crucial to carefully review the company’s books and potential risks before purchasing a company.

 

4. REGISTRATION WITH THE CRPS

Once all conditions have been met, the change of founder must be registered with the Central Register of Business Entities (CRPS). Only then does the new ownership structure become official and legally recognized.
