The shareholders have no personal liability for the debts of the company, and their profits are proportional to the stake they have in the capital.

Stable and safe structure
A SARL, or Limited Liability Company, is a legal form created by two or more people to carry out a commercial or professional activity. The partners of the SARL are often individual entrepreneurs or small and medium-sized enterprises. The partners have limited liability for the debts of the partnership, and each partner is liable only for the amount he has invested in the SARL.
The SARL can, depending on its size, register as an EURL (Single-Person Limited Liability Company). The EURL has characteristics similar to those of the SARL, but it is a one-man business that does not need an additional partner to be created. It offers limited liability to partners, but its status is different and must be registered as EURL.
