GbR FAQ
Why establish a GbR?
There are many advantages that speak in favour of a GbR. On the one hand, it is very simple and quick to set up, which can be done in just a few days. The GbR is suitable for freelancers and tradespeople who have little capital and little liability risk. This is because no start-up capital is required for formation. The disadvantage is that at least two partners are needed and all are liable with their private assets. In addition, the GbR is not suitable for taking on investors.
What does GbR mean for companies?
From a purely legal point of view, a GbR is not a company, as it is not recorded in the commercial register. It is therefore not considered a legal entity, but is classified as a partnership with partial legal capacity. Freelancers, but also tradespeople, opt for the GbR.
Who is liable in the case of a GbR?
In a GbR, not only the GbR itself but also the partners are liable with their private assets, especially if the GbR gets into financial difficulties. All outstanding debts must therefore be settled by the owners of the GbR. Founders should therefore think carefully about the partner with whom they set up a GbR and whether they can vouch for each other financially if the worst comes to the worst.
How do I set up GbR ?
For the formation of a GbR, all important principles regarding the capital contributions and the distribution of tasks between the partners are first regulated in a contract. The GbR contract should be drawn up in writing and signed by the partners. Unlike many other legal forms, however, it does not need to be notarised by a notary public. Next, the GbR is registered with the trade office and registered with the tax office for tax purposes.
When is one a GbR?
A GbR is formed when several partners join together to pursue a common goal. This is an uncomplicated form of business partnership, especially for liberal professions and working groups. Although a verbal agreement is sufficient for formation, a written contract is recommended. Caution is also advised in the case of office communities. If they share rooms and office materials as well as technical equipment, they can automatically become a GbR for the tax office. This could result in disadvantages when considering expenses for tax purposes.
How do you register a GbR?
The registration of a GbR is done quickly, as it does not have to be entered in the commercial register. The appointment of a notary is not necessary for the formation of a GbR; all the necessary steps can be taken by the partners themselves. The procedure varies depending on whether the activity is freelance or commercial. Tradespeople must register with the Trade Licensing Office and register for tax purposes with the tax office. For freelancers, registration with the tax office is sufficient.
What is a GbR simply explained?
The GbR is a legal form that can be established very easily and cheaply. The partnership under civil law (GbR) can start without initial capital and with at least two partners. If a founder starts alone, he runs his business as a sole proprietorship. A simple income statement is sufficient for accounting and tax purposes. The disadvantage of the GbR is that the founders are liable with their private assets. The partners can give the GbR a name. It is best if the partners use their own first and last names.
What is the difference between a GmbH and a GbR?
The biggest difference lies in the share capital and liability. While a share capital of at least 25,000 euros must be raised for the formation of a GmbH, no minimum share capital is required for the formation of a GbR. Nor is an entry in the commercial register necessary for the formation of a GbR. However, in contrast to the GmbH, the partners of the GbR are fully liable with their private assets; in the case of shareholders of a GmbH, private assets are generally protected. For tax purposes, the GmbH is treated differently as a corporation and the GbR as a partnership. A GmbH can be founded by one person alone, whereas a GbR requires at least two partners.
