## Frequently asked questions

### Can I register an EU Inc today?

- Not yet. EU Inc is still a legislative proposal. Registration is not open and there is no confirmed launch date. You can form a national company in an EU country today.

### What is EU Inc, exactly?

- EU Inc is a proposed optional harmonised company form in the EU, also known as the 28th Regime. It would sit alongside existing national forms. The final rules are still under negotiation.

### Can I form a company if I live outside the EU?

- Non-residents can own companies in several EU countries. The requirements depend on the country and company form. For the proposed EU Inc, ownership is separate from the requirement for at least one EU-resident director.

### Should I wait for EU Inc?

- If you need a company for contracts, hiring or investment now, assess an available national form against those needs. A future conversion to EU Inc would depend on the final law and your eligibility.
