Enterprises are divided into the following types:
Limited liability companies, including:
1. Limited liability company, which can be subdivided into: natural person sole proprietorship, legal person sole proprietorship, natural person sole proprietorship, state sole proprietorship, foreign sole proprietorship and foreign investor sole proprietorship. Branches can also be established, and the nature of branches is "branches of limited liability companies".
2. Limited by Share Ltd can be subdivided into two types: listed and unlisted. Branches can also be established, and the nature of branches is "joint stock limited company".
Two, a sole proprietorship enterprise (established by a natural person), which has the nature of a branch of a sole proprietorship enterprise.
3. Partnership enterprises (partners can be more than two natural persons, but also limited companies, enterprise legal persons, institutions legal persons, corporate associations, etc.). ). Divided into general partnership and limited partnership. The following branches are established, and the nature of the branches is "partnership branches".
Four, enterprises owned by the whole people, "state owned" and "owned by the whole people" are collectively referred to as ownership by the whole people. Divided into enterprise legal persons and institutions. An enterprise as a legal person may also establish a public institution.
5. Collectively owned enterprises. It is also divided into enterprise legal persons and institutions. The corporate sponsors of collectively owned enterprises are generally institutions, mass organizations, trade unions, village committees, etc. Institutions can be established under the corporate entity, or directly under institutions, mass organizations, trade unions, villagers' committees and other legal organizations.
Six, farmers' professional cooperatives. This is a new type, which did not exist before.
It should be noted that private enterprises usually refer to "sole proprietorship enterprises, partnerships and limited companies invested by natural persons". There is also a category of "individual industrial and commercial households", which is small in scale. From the name alone, it may be no different from a sole proprietorship enterprise or a partnership enterprise, but the business licenses issued are different. "Individual industrial and commercial households" are not enterprises and cannot be treated as enterprises.
What types of companies are there?
According to different classification standards, companies can be divided into many categories, for example, according to the size of companies, they can be divided into large companies and medium-sized companies. Small companies; According to whether to issue shares publicly, it can be divided into open companies. Closed company; According to the company's internal relations and the foundation of establishment, it can be divided into joint ventures and associated companies; According to the dominant relationship of the company, it can be divided into parent company and subsidiary company; According to the difference of domestic and overseas registration, companies can be divided into China companies and foreign companies. Legally, companies are generally classified according to the form of shareholder responsibility. In some countries, companies are divided into four types, namely:
An unlimited company is a company composed of more than two shareholders, and all shareholders bear direct unlimited joint liability for the company's debts.
A joint-stock company is a company composed of unlimited shareholders and limited shareholders.
A limited liability company is a company whose shareholders bear limited liability for the company's debts to the extent of their capital contribution.
A company limited by shares is a company that divides all its capital into equal shares, and shareholders are liable for the debts of the company to the extent of their shares.
Among the above four companies, unlimited companies and joint-stock companies are not dominant, and they are gradually decreasing in some countries; The forms of limited liability company and joint stock limited company are widely adopted and occupy a dominant position in many countries.
In China's company law, there are two forms: limited liability company and joint stock limited company, because these two kinds of companies have been widely used in real economic life and are the basic forms of companies with wide adaptability.
There is no "group" in the company law, only limited liability companies and joint-stock limited liability companies. However, in reality, we often see the name of a group company. In fact, this is just a company (or enterprise) alliance formed by the close relationship between several companies in business, circulation and production. In addition, some companies have diversified their business strategies and set up corresponding subsidiaries in many fields. In this way, the parent-subsidiary company will form an enterprise group because of this "blood relationship", which is quite similar to the group army in the army. These are the origins of the group companies we often talk about.

The legal classification of enterprises is the classification of enterprises by the state through legislation, that is, the types of enterprises stipulated by the state through legislation. The state defines all kinds of enterprises by legislation, so that the categories of enterprises are standardized, standardized and legally binding. The state defines the types of enterprises through legislation, allowing the founders of enterprises (including the investors of enterprises) to decide the choice of enterprise types independently according to the legal types of enterprises. In general, the founder should determine his choice of enterprise type within the scope prescribed by law. At the same time, when establishing an enterprise, the founder of the enterprise must set up an enterprise according to the specific needs of different types of enterprises stipulated by law, such as conditions, procedures and internal organization.
In addition, enterprises can be classified according to economic types in China. This is the basic practice of legal classification of enterprises in China. According to the Constitution and relevant laws, China has various economic types, such as state-owned economy, collective ownership economy, private economy, joint-stock economy, foreign-related economy (including foreign investment, Sino-foreign joint venture and investment economy from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan). Accordingly, the mode of enterprise legislation in China is also arranged according to the economic type, thus forming a special situation of determining the legal type of enterprises according to the economic type. They are: (1) state-owned enterprises. (2) collectively owned enterprises. (3) private enterprises. (4) Joint-stock enterprises. (5) Joint ventures. (6) Enterprises with foreign investment. (7) Enterprises invested by Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan businessmen. (8) Joint-stock cooperative enterprises.
What kinds of companies are there?
There are three main types of enterprises: sole proprietorship, partnership and corporate enterprise. Among them, corporate enterprises are mainly divided into limited liability companies and joint stock limited companies. The limitation of the two means that all shareholders are liable to the company with their capital contribution, but there is no unlimited joint liability for the company's debt settlement. The company is responsible for its debts with all its assets. Both have their own articles of association, including shareholders' meeting, board of directors, board of supervisors and other institutions. The difference is that the number of shareholders in the former has upper and lower limits, the share capital is unequal, and it is generally not listed, so the finance does not need to be made public, and the transfer of shareholders' shares is conditional (for example, with the approval of the board of directors, the old shareholders have the preemptive right, etc.). ), and the distribution of interests between new and old shareholders is also different. However, the number of shareholders of a joint stock limited company has a lower limit and no upper limit, so it is generally listed, so its financial affairs are made public on a regular basis (usually once every quarter), and its assets are divided into equal shares, which can be freely transferred and issued.
If it is done alone (not in cooperation or partnership), it is generally a wholly-owned company. Generally, this company can succeed with registered capital and necessary facilities, but the profits are yours and the losses are yours. You are responsible for all the affairs of the company and are jointly and severally liable for debts. I haven't fully figured out the company you want to register. Please tell me in more detail. As for the registered capital and conditions, we can learn from the company law. It is best to read relevant legal books when starting a company.

What types of companies are there?
It depends on how to divide it.
According to different standards, companies can be divided into different categories:
1. According to the different responsibilities of shareholders to the company, the company can be divided into five categories:
(1) An unlimited company, that is, a company in which all shareholders are jointly and severally liable for the debts of the company, regardless of the amount of capital contribution;
(2) For a limited liability company, all shareholders shall be liable for the debts of the company with their capital contributions.
(3) Joint venture, a company composed of unlimited shareholders and limited shareholders;
(4) For a joint stock limited company, all its capital is divided into equal shares, and all shareholders are liable for the debts of the company to the extent of their shares.
(5) A joint-stock company is a company composed of unlimited liability shares and limited company shareholders. This division is the most basic division of the company.
According to different nationalities, companies can be divided into domestic companies, foreign companies and multinational companies.
3. Companies can be divided into parent companies and subsidiaries according to their different positions in the relationship between control and controlled.
The parent company refers to a company that owns a certain number of shares in other companies or can control and dominate other companies' personnel, finance, business and other matters according to the agreement. The most basic feature of the parent company is not whether it holds the shares of the subsidiary, but whether it participates in the operation of the subsidiary. A subsidiary refers to a company whose shares are controlled by another company or actually controlled and dominated by another company according to an agreement. A subsidiary has the status of an independent legal person, owns all its own property, its own company name, articles of association and the board of directors, conducts business independently and assumes responsibilities. However, major decisions or major personnel arrangements involving the interests of the company still have to be decided by the parent company. Paragraph 2 of Article 13 of China's Company Law stipulates that a company may set up a subsidiary, which has the status of an enterprise legal person and independently bears civil liability according to law.
4. According to the location of the company in the jurisdiction and the jurisdictional relationship, it can be divided into head office and branch office.
The head office, also known as the company, refers to the general organization established in accordance with the law with the qualification of enterprise legal person, which governs all the organizations of the company. The head office is usually established before the branch office, and it is in a leading and dominant position in the internal jurisdiction system of the company. A branch refers to a branch under the jurisdiction of the company in terms of business, funds and personnel. Not qualified as a legal person. The branch has no legal and economic independence, but its establishment procedure is simple. Article 13 of China's Company Law stipulates that a company may set up a branch, which does not have the qualification of an enterprise legal person and its civil liability shall be borne by the company.
5. According to the different credit bases of companies, companies whose business activities are based on the personal credit of shareholders rather than the amount of company capital are called joint companies, such as unlimited companies; The company's business activities are based on the company's capital scale, which is called a joint venture company. For example, a joint-stock company is a typical joint venture company. The establishment and operation of a company depends not only on the personal credit of shareholders, but also on the capital scale of the company, such as a joint venture.
