The foundation agreement and the shares are determined if there are two founders. The decision to establish a company and payment of state duty – 11 (eleven) manats. After all the documents are prepared, they are submitted to the tax inspectorate for verification, at the second stage they are registered. The registration procedure lasts 3 (three) working days. After registration, the procedure for opening an account in the bank chosen by the client begins: a seal is prepared, a copy of all the constituent documents of the company is notarized, as well as the decision on the appointment of the director (it must be the original), certification of the signature and seal sample on the cards submitted by the bank, a duplicate of the certificate of opening accounts from the tax and SPSMF. After all these documents are ready, the bank is given the opportunity to open accounts for the client. After these procedures, the company can start full-fledged activities in accordance with local legislation.
The customer forms a tender commission, then develops a set of basic conditions of the tender and, finally, after the approval by the tender commission of the set of basic conditions of the tender and the announcement of the tender, publishes an announcement of the tender or sends an individual invitation to shippers (contractors) to participate in the tender.
The announcement of an open tender must be made at least 30 banking days before the day of opening envelopes with tender applications, and for the second time – at least 20 banking days in the state newspapers of the republic and international mass media, as well as on the official website.
