Gmbh意思

"GmbH" 是德語 "Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung" 的縮寫,直譯為英文是 "Company with Limited Liability"。 It is a common form of business organization in Germany and other German-speaking countries, similar to the limited liability company (LLC) in the United States or the private limited company in the United Kingdom.

A GmbH is a separate legal entity from its owners (shareholders), and the liability of the shareholders is limited to the amount of their investment in the company. This means that if the company is unable to pay its debts, the personal assets of the shareholders are protected, and they cannot be required to contribute any more money to pay off the company's debts.

To form a GmbH, at least one shareholder is required, and the company must have a minimum share capital, which is currently set at €25,000 in Germany. This capital must be fully paid up at the time of formation, and it serves as a cushion for the company's creditors in case the company goes bankrupt.

GmbHs are subject to German corporate law and are regulated by the German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch, or HGB). They are required to file annual financial statements and to pay corporate taxes on their profits.

In addition to being used in Germany, the GmbH form is also commonly used in Austria (where it is called a "GmbH" as well) and Switzerland (where it is called a "GmbH" or "SA"), among other countries.
