Document background
The Companies Memorandum of Association is a mandatory legal document required for establishing any company in Austria. This document outlines the fundamental structure and operating principles of the company, including details about shareholders, share capital, management, and corporate governance. It must comply with Austrian corporate law requirements and needs to be executed before a notary public. The Memorandum serves multiple purposes: it defines the relationship between shareholders, establishes management structures, sets out the company's objectives, and provides a framework for future operations. This document is particularly crucial as it forms the basis for company registration in the Austrian Commercial Register (Firmenbuch) and will govern the company's internal affairs throughout its existence.
