– Choice of legal form and its characteristics: The legal form defines the identity of the future company in the eyes of the law, so the choice can only be made after thorough research, as it determines the level of responsibility of the entrepreneur and implies the future of the company. Among the various legal forms proposed by Moroccan legislation, we have chosen the Limited Liability Company (LLC) as it is the most commonly used form due to its simplicity in terms of registration and operation.
Characteristics of the LLC: This form is particularly suitable for SMEs and is preferred to the S.A. because:

In LLC, the number of shareholders can be between 1 and 50, while SA consists of at least
