Fully remote
Remotely Process Your Company Registration in Italy (Simplified SRL)
Italy company incorporation with TKEG Expat — we form your Italian SRL Semplificata (SRLS), the simplified variant of the Società a responsabilità limitata, via standard notarial deed: name reservation, statutory articles (template set by law), Chamber of Commerce (Camera di Commercio) filing, codice fiscale and VAT (partita IVA) registration. Minimum share capital starts at just 1 EUR, fully paid up in cash, making it a low-cost entry vehicle. Per Italian law, SRLS shareholders must be natural persons only — legal-entity shareholders are not permitted; choose the traditional SRL if you need corporate owners. An Italian registered office is mandatory — our Milan and Rome address services cover it.

Frequently Asked Questions
The company's registered capital must be used for the company's day-to-day operating costs, such as paying for goodscosts, to pay accountants, to pay for the services of TKEG Expat.
No. Company incorporation in Italy does not include a PEC (Posta Elettronica Certificata, a legally-valid certified email system). The client must register their own PEC with one of the many PEC providers, similar to signing up for any email account; it is not part of the incorporation service.
Any individual holding more than 25% of the company must be declared as a beneficial owner (UBO). This is assessed by tracing the ownership chain through to the ultimate individual — including through a listed parent company. If a new financial report later shows that an individual crosses the 25% threshold, the UBO declaration must be corrected and supplementary supporting materials may be required.
