Business Consultant

Hiring Miglena was the very best thing I could do for starting my business here in Austria.
I was very confused about the paperwork, and my lack of German kept me insecure about everything.

I highly recommend her and her team, especially if you are uncertain about Austrian legislation and bureaucracy, she is definitely the person you are looking for.

Self-employment registration in Austria

Whether you want to be self-employed, or just a freelancer, under the Austrian business rules and regulations you will be considered a business. It will be useful to have support and know which rules apply to you.

As an English speaking Business Consultant, I can provide help in various matters such as choosing the right business license for you and your business, taking over the entire administrative ordeal of registering a business in Austria, or making sure you and your business interests are protected.

My legal background gives me the necessary perspective and knowledge to guide you through this process.

I promise, it will not be as complicated as you have heard it is.

How can I help you register as self employed in Austria?

You need to request a consultation first. We will have a conversation and I will ask you a lot of questions. You get to ask yours too!

After that, I will prepare a detailed and thorough follow-up email for you summarizing everything we have talked about, the findings of the research I have done, tailored to your needs, and a piece of advice for the best course to take.
I will also include a step-by-step procedure for you to follow and how I can help you further.

My rate for a consultation (as described above) is EUR 180,00.

I offer various packages depending on the legal form of the business and how much professional business support and involvement you would like me to have in the process of registering your business in Austria.

Moving your business to Austria

This service is for you if you own a business abroad, outside of Austria but life has relocated you to this country and you want to move your business with you.

This is very common business decision – especially because under Austrian law, foreign companies whose management members (i.e. managing director, CEO) are residing in Austria, have to pay corporate tax in Austria.

Should you set up a parent company, a branch or subsidiary for your international business relocation? The business immigration service I offer includes advice on the most suitable legal form for your foreign business.

How will it work?
