Can a foreign company be the shareholder of an Uzbek LLC?

Question

Accepted Answer

Yes. A corporate shareholder adds two documents to the file. Yes A legal entity may hold the shares — alone or alongside individuals, up to 100%. One catch The one-person-company chain rule — a company whose only member is itself a one-person company cannot be the sole founder, unless that member is a single-shareholder JSC. +2 papers The corporate additions — an extract from its companies register, and proof of the signatory’s authority, legalised by the same route as the power of attorney. Own key Its own digital signature — a corporate shareholder’s e-signature carries the legal-entity state fee rather than the individual one. A foreign legal entity may found an Uzbek LLC, alone or with others. Against an individual shareholder, the file grows by two documents — a current extract from the company’s home register and evidence of the signatory’s authority to act — each legalised by the same route the power of attorney takes for that country, and translated. The corporate shareholder receives its own digital signature at the legal-entity fee. One structural check comes before the paperwork: a company consisting of one person cannot be the sole shareholder of another one-person company, unless that sole shareholder is a joint-stock company with a single shareholder. A single-member holding company founding a wholly-owned Uzbek subsidiary either adds a second shareholder at one level or plans around the exception.
