Transformation of Companies and Cooperatives

By transformations we mean:

• a merger of a company or cooperative
• a spin-off of a company or cooperative
• transfer of assets to a shareholder
• change of legal form
• cross-border relocation of the registered office

Transformations are divided into national transformations, in which only Czech business corporations or Czech natural persons are participating, and cross-border transformations, in which a transnational element is present (foreign corporations or foreign natural persons are also participating).

The implementation of a transformation is time-consuming as well as organizationally and financially demanding process. We place great emphasis on close cooperation between the client, the attorney and the tax advisor.

Some transformations cannot take effect unless the relevant administrative authority (e.g. the Competition Authority, the Czech National Bank, etc.) gives its authorization. Therefore, if necessary, we also represent our clients in front of the relevant authorities, in particular the Competition Authority.
