Questions about our work.

01Where do we begin?

With a conversation about your plans, the current position and the decisions that matter most. You do not need a complete plan before getting in touch.

02Which businesses is Jaba for?

For founders, small and medium-sized businesses and owners preparing their next commercial step. We establish whether the assignment is a fit before engagement.

03Does Jaba provide legal or tax advice?

Jaba provides commercial consulting and coordination that do not require a professional licence. Individual legal and tax questions are assessed by separately engaged qualified professionals.

04How are scope and fees agreed?

After clarifying your needs, tasks, responsibilities and fees are described in an individual proposal. General packages provide orientation and do not constitute binding price commitments.

05Can we work confidentially?

The purpose, recipients and confidentiality can be agreed before sensitive information is shared. Statutory disclosure and identification requirements remain in place.

06Are the businesses in the exchange available?

Enquire about the business directly with Jaba Consulting. The subsequent discussion covers current availability, supporting records and next steps. Profiles may change; an enquiry is not a reservation or binding commitment.

07Can we work together in English?

You can enquire in German or English. The language and format of the subsequent engagement are agreed for the project.

08What happens to my enquiry?

After your review and consent, the enquiry is sent to contact@jaba-consulting.de. A requested appointment still requires separate confirmation.

09How much capital does a formation need?

It depends on the legal form and business plan. Section 5 GmbHG sets a minimum share capital of EUR 25,000 for a GmbH; payment requirements need separate assessment. A UG follows its own rules. Adequate funds for day-to-day operations remain a separate consideration. Statutory text ↗

10Can directors be personally liable?

Limited company liability does not remove all directors’ duties. Section 43 GmbHG addresses responsibility to the company for breaches of duty, among other matters. Additional duties may apply. Specific risks require legal assessment of the actual responsibilities and circumstances. Statutory text ↗

11Which financing fits the project?

Compare equity, borrowing and possible support programmes against funding needs, repayment capacity and eligibility. A realistic cash-flow plan helps put options in order. General website information cannot establish grant eligibility or a lending commitment.

12What should I prepare for a formation conversation?

A short account of your offering and customers, participants, available capital and intended start is useful. Add open questions about operations. Sensitive identity documents or credentials are not needed for an initial discussion.

13What is a shelf company?

The term generally describes a company formed and held for later acquisition that has not yet traded. Registration status, capital and the claim that it has not operated need individual verification before acquisition.

14How do shell and shelf companies differ?

A shelf company is typically formed for future use. A company shell may have an operating history. This can create very different review questions, including past obligations and available records. The label alone provides no assurance.

15Can a shelf company save time?

Some formation steps may already be complete. Verification, transfer, necessary register changes and potentially bank and identification processes still remain. Whether this route saves time or cost depends on the offer; an immediate operational start is not promised.
