Nordic Countries

UK Business Advisory for Nordic Founders

Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland and Iceland — the Nordic countries. A UK limited company sits comfortably alongside an existing ApS, AS, AB, Oy or ehf. and provides an English-law operating vehicle for UK, European and international trade.

Nordic and Scandinavian

Scandinavia strictly refers to Denmark, Norway and Sweden. The Nordic countries are the wider group, adding Finland and Iceland. Both terms are used carefully across this site.

A common pattern

Nordic technology, industrial and design founders often maintain a domestic ApS / AS / AB / Oy / ehf. for local operations and use a UK Ltd for UK, US and international business. Structure is agreed with independent tax advice.
