Registration of Enterprises with Foreign investments  (JV LLC and FE LLC) in Uzbekistan

JV LLC (Joint Venture in the form of a Limited Liability Company) is a business structure created through joint investments by domestic and foreign partners. In this format, the share of the foreign investor must be at least 15%. This approach combines the knowledge, resources, and expertise of both parties, fostering successful development and opening new opportunities for business.

FE LLC (Foreign Enterprise in the form of a Limited Liability Company) is a company entirely based on foreign investments, where the foreign partner owns 100% of the capital. This format gives the investor full control over operational management and minimizes risks associated with joint participation.
