Business Articles of Incorporation are essential documents required when establishing a new company in Denmark or converting an existing business structure. This foundational document must comply with the Danish Companies Act (Selskabsloven) and is required for registration with the Danish Business Authority (Erhvervsstyrelsen). The Articles of Incorporation contain crucial information about the company's structure, including its name, purpose, share capital, management framework, and operational procedures. They serve as the company's constitution and are binding on both current and future shareholders. The document must be prepared carefully as it forms the basis for the company's legal existence and governs fundamental aspects of corporate operations, shareholder rights, and management responsibilities. Modifications to the Articles typically require shareholder approval and must be registered with the Danish Business Authority.
