With a shelf-UG, you will be able to act quickly and with legal certainty. Our companies, which are already established and entered in the commercial register, save time and simplify the formation process. We offer locations in important business centres in Germany.
The incorporation documents and the articles of association of the shelf-UG are bilingual in German and English.
By purchasing a shelf-UG, we take on the formation risk for you. All companies have been established as open, permissible shelf formations and are free of liabilities, as they have not yet been economically active – making them guaranteed to be free of burdens and risks for you.
The share capital of the shelf-GmbH is 1,000 EUR and is deposited with a German bank. This amount remains untouched in the company's bank account after the takeover and is available to you.
Youco24 operates throughout Germany and offers shelf-UGs in key locations such as Berlin, Frankfurt am Main, Hamburg and Munich. If another location is better suited to your needs, you can open a permanent establishment immediately in accordance with the German Trade and Tax Code - regardless of the entry in the Commercial Register.
We are happy to assist you in relocating the registered office of your UG or establishing a company directly at your desired location. With our tailored solutions, we ensure that your corporate structure is perfectly aligned with your requirements.
We understand that you are in a hurry. We keep the process simple and quick. From reserving your UG to the notarial takeover, there are only three steps. Fast and professional: Our shelf-UG purchase procedure has been tested for years. It guarantees a fast and reliable takeover of your Entrepreneurial company.
You reserve your shelf-UG free of charge and without obligation
Our experienced team is happy to receive your inquiry by phone or email. Alternatively, you can reserve online via our website. Ideally, you already know whether you would like to take over the company's bank account or prefer to close it and open your own account at your bank.
We will get in touch with you promptly afterward and offer you the shelf-UG that best suits your needs.
Advance payment or guarantee
Based on the information you provide in the questionnaire, we will prepare the documents for the acquisition of your shelf company. For the payment of the purchase price or its security, you can choose from the following options:
Once we have all the necessary information from you, the notarization appointment for the purchase and transfer agreement will take place.
Notarization of the purchase agreement and registration with the commercial register
The notary will notarize the purchase and transfer agreement we have prepared, the resolutions to amend the articles of association (including: new management, new company name, and new business purpose), and will certify the Commercial Registry registration of the new managing director. Afterward, the notary will submit the documents to the Commercial Register.

The share capital has been fully paid into the bank account of the shelf-UG. To offer you the best solution, we collaborate with various banks to establish our companies. You can choose whether to close or take over the bank account. If you wish to close the bank account quickly, we offer a unique account model with an easy termination option, the "order check option."
If you would like to reserve the shelf-UG, please let us know which account model you prefer, so we can offer you the shelf-UG that best suits your needs.
For the formation of our shelf companies, we open accounts at Hoerner Bank and deposit the legally required capital of 1,000 EUR there. The new management will receive an order check from us, which can be cashed at their bank. After the check is cashed, the company's founding account will be automatically closed and will no longer be available for transactions.
Our shelf companies have a transferable bank account that can continue to function as a transaction account in the future. The bank balance of the shelf company will be available to you for full use after the KYC/identity verification process has been completed by the bank.
It is much faster and more convenient to buy a shelf-UG than to establish your own company. Youco24 shelf-UGs come with a bank account that can be transferred upon purchase. For over ten years, our highly qualified team has been selling and founding shelf companies. With our expertise, we guarantee a professional, efficient, and error-free process.
Therefore, take advantage of the many benefits of a shelf company and rely on our proven and experienced Youco24 team.

It is already registered in the Commercial Register and has a share capital of EUR 1,000. Shelf-UGs allow for a quick and legally secure start without the need for the effort of setting up a new company from scratch.
No, our shelf-UGs do not have a tax number. This must be requested by the buyer after the acquisition.
Yes, you can choose your own notary. It can be located anywhere in Germany. If you would like a recommendation or if you prefer us to handle the contact with the notary, please feel free to get in touch with us.
