Business services & advice

Choosing a company form

We compare a sole trader (toiminimi), a limited company (osakeyhtiö) and other company forms in terms of tax, liability and administration. You get a well-founded view of which form suits you.

Choosing a company form

What does the service mean?

Your business form determines how the business's profit is taxed, who is liable for its debts and how much administration it requires. The most common options are the sole trader (toiminimi), the limited company (osakeyhtiö, Oy), the general partnership and the limited partnership.

The right form cannot be chosen on taxation alone. It is also worth considering risks, financing needs, possible shareholders and your plans for the future.

Who is the service for? People planning to start a business and entrepreneurs considering a change of business form.

Questions

Frequently asked

Can the business form be changed later?

Yes. For example, a sole trader can be converted into a limited company. The timing of the change is worth planning.

Is a limited company always more tax-efficient?

Not always. It depends on your income level and how money is drawn from the company. We assess your situation with figures.
