An EU branch is a great option for SMEs entering European markets due to several advantages over traditional company structures.
Firstly, EU branches pay no dividend tax in many cases, which can save a significant amount of money.
Additionally, there is often no requirement for local financial statements, which can reduce administrative costs. Furthermore, an EU branch can be a more flexible option for companies that want to maintain a closer connection to their parent company.
With House of Companies, you can easily establish your EU branch and take advantage of these benefits.
Here is why Europe Branch Registration

Benificial Tax Status
