Questions – Answers

 

 

When should the company’s purpose be modified?

As soon as you significantly change or expand your activity (e.g., moving from consulting to sales, adding digital services, etc.).

 

Do I need to modify the articles of association?

Yes. The corporate purpose is a fundamental statutory element: any modification requires a revision of the articles by a notarized deed.

 

Is the new purpose automatically validated?

No. The Commercial Register can refuse a poorly drafted, too vague, or illegal purpose. HEVEA ensures its compliance.

 

What is the processing time?

On average, 7 to 10 business days after validation of the documentation and signature.
