Moreover, according to the government program an (unbureaucratic) company formation only via digital means should be possible in the future. These new developments could push the start-up scene immensely.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, there are still some unanswered questions: The reduction of the capital contribution to EUR 10,000 is strongly reminiscent of the \u201cGmbH light\u201d, which was established in Austria in 2013 but was later abolished due to tax losses. The scope of the new \u201cAustria Limited\u201d remains open: Will it be restricted to start-ups or can everyone conduct his business via \u201cAustria Limited\u201d? If there are no longer any differences from the &#8220;normal&#8221; GmbH, who will conduct business through a &#8220;normal&#8221; GmbH?<\/p>\n<p>The details should be published soon &#8211; we will continue to pursue this topic.<\/p>\n<p>Our experts <a href=\"https:\/\/www.haslinger-nagele.com\/en\/team\/daniela-huemer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Daniela Huemer<\/a> and<a href=\"https:\/\/www.haslinger-nagele.com\/en\/team\/alexander-mueller\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Alexander M\u00fcller<\/a> will be happy to answer any further questions on this topic by phone or at <a href=\"mailto:akut@hnp.at\">akut@hnp.at<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Disclaimer<\/h3>\n<p>This article is only general information and does not replace legal advice.
