Registering a transport company
If you want to set up a transport business in Slovenia, it has to be a LTD company. Branch office is not one of your options. Founder can be a physical or a business entity. To register a LTD company you need to have a share capital. What kind of money are we talking about? It depends on what kind of vehicles you intend to use.

For vehicles which weigh more than 3,5 tons, your share capital has to be 9000,00 euro for first and 5000,00 euro for every next vehicle. Also, in case you intend to use vehicles up to 3,5 tons it is not necessary to register a transport company. You can choose another business activity.
