Contract periods with office centers are definitely shorter than on the commercial market, meaning you reduce your risk in case you want to change country, location or your method of market access. Flexibility is key here.

In addition, the office center might already be working with tax and legal partners and can therefore recommend solutions fitting your needs.

Costs are predictable: make sure you know all costs charged each month (we naturally do), so there will be no surprises with unexpected costs, maybe simply because there are different rules and regulations in the country of the parent company.

So, some summaries in a nutshell for establishing an affiliate at an office center:

• No cumbersome administrative work
• No waste of time for rules and regulations
• Flexibility
• Cost transparency

Business definitely always looks for the best opportunities within the given political framework. This framework will change – in which way we will see. Many companies are already reacting to the uncertainties by moving across the channel and establishing a business branch within the EU single market. No matter whether you talk to big industries, SMEs or individual professions, all of them are struggling with the same questions:
• where to relocate to from the UK after Brexit
• where to get profitable access to markets
• where to encounter easy-to-handle administrative requirements
Contrary to market expansion or exploring new terrains, most companies are now trying mainly to maintain business with the EU single market, so as not to lose already established ties. It would be ideal not to have to focus too much on the entity to be, but to be able to have it run along the usual business to the extent possible. Reliable partners and a minimal personnel structure might fit best.

where to move to in Europe

Many companies have already answered the question of where to move to in Europe after Brexit. Some by moving the whole company, some by founding an affiliate abroad. Germany, and especially North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW), has dominantly profited from this development. It is not only because this German state owes its existence to the British that the ties are traditionally close.
Therefore
• company formations by British companies in Germany have risen 20% since the Brexit referendum
• for British companies Germany is the second most popular market for expansion/settlement after the US
• one third establish their business in North Rhine-Westphalia
Dusseldorf can also look back on a long history of German-British relations, which was also due to a strong military presence in Monchengladbach (a city close by) in the past. Presently ties are tightened by frequent visits of the business promotion agency in the UK, the co-operation projects with the partner city of Reading and a very engaged and active consul general. Of course, people find a likable business and personal environment.
So maybe you would like to get in touch with some business promotion agencies or partners, for example
• German Chamber of Commerce (IHK), the
• German-British Chamber of Industry & Commerce (AHK), or the
• British Chamber of Commerce in Germany

Due to the fact that Dusseldorf is a very international town with expats from around the world, there are excellent relocation services which make moving and settling easy for your staff.
