Withdrawal of share capital from ApS company

The amount of the 20,000 kroner deposit, which is the required share capital for your ApS and which was paid at the beginning by its founders, cannot be withdrawn as long as the company is still in existence. Their purpose is to ensure the financial stability and operational support of ApS, serving as the capital base needed to run the business.

These funds can only be returned when the company is liquidated. Until then, they remain invested in the company as a form of security for investors and others with a financial interest in the company. In the event of liquidation, the procedures established by law and the company's articles of association will determine how and when these funds are returned.

The reason for these regulations is that the liability of the founders of a limited liability company (ApS) is, as the name suggests, limited. This means that they will only be liable up to the amount of share capital that was paid in at the start of the ApS company, which is 20,000 crowns. In practice, if there are financial problems in the company, their liability is limited to the amount that was invested in the company. In other words, creditors or other persons aggrieved by the company will not be able to demand that the founders of ApS cover the company's liabilities beyond the amount of your capital contribution, for example, from their own funds. This legal structure is designed to protect the private assets of the partners from the risks associated with the company's business activities.
