Registering Firms and Companies in Kyiv: Professional Services by Notkontora 131
The development of a successful business venture in Ukraine demands precise, legally compliant, and secure corporate instruments from the very beginning. Whether you intend to start a private enterprise, launch a large-scale holding company, incorporate a non-profit charitable foundation, or establish a representative office of a foreign brand, your first and most critical milestone is the official state registration of the legal entity.
Notary Office 131 (Notkontora 131) in the Golosiivskyi district of Kyiv offers a full suite of services for the incorporation of firms and companies across all organizational-legal forms. Our private notary combines corporate law expertise with state registration authority, ensuring a swift, compliant, and legally secure launch of your business.
Types of Companies and Entities We Incorporate
At Notkontora 131, we handle the incorporation of diverse legal structures:
• Limited Liability Company (LLC/TOV): the most flexible and widely used corporate structure for small, medium, and large-scale businesses with a customizable corporate governance scheme.
• Private Enterprise (PE/PP): an alternative business structure that is ideal for sole owners or small companies.
• Non-Profit Organizations (NGOs) and Charitable Foundations (CFs): non-commercial structures that require precise drafting of charters to secure tax-exempt status.
• Branches and Representative Offices: incorporating local branches of Ukrainian firms, as well as formal representative offices of foreign entities in Ukraine.
The Notary's Role in Business Incorporation and Corporate Governance
Our private notary acts as a trusted legal shield for your business and directly performs all registrations.
1. Attestation of Corporate Documents
Prior to submitting files to the register, the notary formally attests the authenticity of the founders' signatures on the Charter, General Meeting Minutes, and Decisions. This serves as a vital security measure protecting your business against hostile takeovers, corporate fraud, or illegal ownership disputes.
2. Direct USR Access and Registration Authority
Our private notary is fully authorized to enter information directly into the Unified State Register (USR). You do not need to visit administrative service centres (CNAP) or wait in municipal queues. The entire incorporation process takes place in our office under one roof.
3. Registering Corporate Changes
We support your business throughout its operational cycle by registering any necessary updates in the USR:
• Changing the company director (executive officer).
• Modifying shareholders (founders) and redistributing corporate shares.
• Changing the official company name or legal address.
• Increasing or decreasing the charter capital.
• Amending or adding NACE/KVED business activity codes in the registry.

Frequently asked questions
What types of legal entities can be registered at a notary office?
We support the registration of limited liability companies (LLC/TOV), private enterprises (PE/PP), non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and charitable foundations, as well as branches and representative offices.
Do I need to visit a CNAP centre, or can everything be done at the notary?
No, you do not need to visit a CNAP centre. A private notary holds state registrar powers and enters the data into the Unified State Register directly. You receive the official extract in the same office where you signed the documents.
Can I change the director, shareholders or legal address through a notary?
Yes. We perform any registration acts in the USR: change of director, change of the founders' composition and redistribution of shares, change of company name or legal address, increase or decrease of charter capital, and amendments to business activity codes (NACE/KVED).
Is the physical presence of all founders required to register a firm?
Yes, all founders must personally sign the resolution (minutes) and charter at the notary office. If someone cannot attend, they can act via a representative with a notarized power of attorney.
What documents are required to register an LLC or a private enterprise?
For individuals: original passports and tax identification numbers of all founders and of the future director, plus an agreed company name and information on the size and distribution of charter capital shares. The charter, minutes and registration applications are drafted by the notary on site.
