Find out how to incorporate a company in Israel, which business forms are available and how our local specialists can assist with registration.

Israel is a democratic country located in the Middle East, a competitive nation with a well-developed economy (about 27th in the world by nominal GDP, IMF 2025) where Tel Aviv, the country's main business centre, is recognized as a significant player in the international tech and financial markets. Investors are attracted by the country’s economic stability, which rapidly developed in the past years, and by the varied business opportunities in the agricultural and industrial areas among many others. Entrepreneurs can set up limited liability companies, partnerships, branches of foreign companies, private and public firms in accordance with the legislation of the country, under a strict supervision from the Ministry of Justice in Israel. Our specialists in company incorporation in Israel can manage and oversee the registration of your business with the authorities in charge, offering complete support when drafting the documents.

Limited liability company in Israel

A limited liability company is a preferred entity for entrepreneurs from overseas who want to establish their activities on the market, in complete accordance with the Companies Law. One of the main benefits when setting up an LLC in Israel is that there are no special requirements regarding the number of shareholders – a single entrepreneur from abroad can legally register a limited liability company in Israel. Furthermore, no matter the activities you plan to operate in Israel, several types of documents must be prepared for the Registrar of Companies (Israeli Corporations Authority), which registers companies nationally and online.

Offshore company in Israel

Israel has no offshore company regime: a company incorporated in Israel is Israeli tax-resident and pays the standard 23% corporate tax (2026); it can be incorporated outside the jurisdiction of its operations, no matter the type of business. There are many entrepreneurs from abroad who decide to set up Israeli companies and benefit from online registration, a simplified registration with less bureaucracy, and protected assets from liability. Please consider that Israeli companies are not anonymous: shareholders are recorded in the Companies Register and appear in company extracts available to anyone.

Private company in Israel

A not-public company is also known as a private company, an available entity an entrepreneur can establish in Israel, under certain conditions. For example, such firm must have a board of directors in charge of planning the company’s policies. Additionally, a general manager must be appointed, who must consider and oversee the daily operations of the company. Compared to the public companies in Israel, the private ones cannot be traded on the stock exchange. For a better understanding of the company registration process in Israel, please consider that our specialists in company incorporation in Israel are at your disposal with complete information and guidelines when drafting the documents.
