What is a Limited Liability Company (SRL) in Italy?

An Srl company in Italy (Società a Responsabilità Limitata) is a private limited company where the liability of shareholders is restricted to the amount of capital they contribute. This means your assets are protected in the event of business debts or legal claims.

It is the preferred choice for small to medium-sized enterprises and is also highly suitable for foreign entrepreneurs looking to enter the Italian market.
