Step 1 – Create the Company

To create the company, you need to:

  • Log in to the share ledger service and click on “+Register company”

  • Select country

  • Enter organization number, check the company name and currency

  • Click “Register”


Step 2 – Complete Setup, Enter Number of Shares and Share Capital

Click on “+Complete setup”

The system will automatically populate the number of shares and the share capital based on the current status. So all you need to do is click “OK”.


Step 3 – Add Shareholders

Enter shareholders manually. Create the first shareholder by clicking “Add”.

Fill in the details for each shareholder. Note that shareholders can be either private individuals or legal entities, depending on how the shares are owned.

Once all shareholders are added, click “Next” to confirm.


Step 4 – Allocate Shares and Confirm

Distribute the shares to each shareholder. Once all shares are allocated, click “Save and continue”.


When all shares have been allocated, scroll down.


Step 5 – Preview and Finalize

Check that all information is correct and then click “Complete Setup.”

Any restrictions stated in the Articles of Association can most easily be added after the setup is finalized.

Everything looks good? Then just click “Finalize.”
