EU Inc (the 28th regime) · 2026/0074(COD)
Supports a simple, digital, and accessible EU Inc. regime that improves cross-border business but wants clearer legal certainty on labor law and uniform implementation across Member States.
Ensure the EU Inc. regime is fully digital with harmonized EU-wide application forms, fast-track incorporation within 48 hours, and automatic data exchange between registers and authorities.
“the principle of fully digital procedures (Article 10), the introduction of a harmonized EU-wide application form (Article 13), and the fast-track incorporation procedure, allowing company formation within 48 hours at a maximum cost of EUR 100 when using standard EU templates (Article 16)”

Guarantee uniform implementation and genuine interoperability between national systems to avoid divergent back-end systems limiting simplification.
“there is a clear risk that the regime could evolve into a common EU-level interface combined with divergent national back-end systems, thereby limiting the intended simplification. To avoid this, it is essential to ensure uniform implementation across Member States and genuine interoperability between national systems.”

Adopt shares without nominal value as default and no minimum capital requirement to support flexible, modern corporate frameworks suitable for venture capital and early-stage investment.
Maintain digital share registers and ensure access to multilateral trading facilities to facilitate transparency, share transfers, and prevent barriers to market-based financing.
Provide clear and predictable rules on balance sheet-based safeguards, solvency tests, distributions, and capital reductions to maintain investor and creditor confidence in the absence of minimum capital requirements.
Create a venture-compatible and investment-ready corporate framework with flexible share structures, digital share management, and conditions supporting employee ownership schemes.
Ensure the EU Inc. framework allows companies to implement employee ownership schemes simply, flexibly, and with legal predictability across borders, reducing administrative complexity.
Add explicit wording in the regulation clarifying that the country of origin principle does not apply to labor law, which remains under national competence where work is habitually performed.
“New article 4(2a): The country of origin-principle applied in paragraph 2 does not include the application of labour law. National labour law and practices continue to fully apply in the Member State where the work is habitually performed.”
