Buying a business abroad through a Danish seller
Buying from a Danish owner makes the first conversations easier, but company law, tax, employment law, leases and permits follow the local rules. Company forms, accounting requirements and transfer rules vary from country to country, as do licences for restaurants, accommodation and similar businesses.

- A local lawyer and accountant to review the purchase agreement, accounts and tax position.
- Whether the business is run through a local company, and what that means for you as buyer.
- Lease, employment contracts and permits under local rules.
- Banking, currency and how the purchase price will be paid.
- Your own position: residence and work permits if you will run the business yourself.
Buyer considerations abroadAsk the seller why the business is for sale and who runs it today.Buying
Ask the seller why the business is for sale and who runs it today. A Danish owner living in Denmark with a local manager is selling something different from an owner who works in the business every day. Ask for accounts in the local format and an explanation of local taxes and duties. Visit before you bid — location, condition and footfall cannot be judged from a listing. Think about your exit, too: a later sale will follow local rules and attract local buyers.

Sitavo’s indicative multiples on the industry pages are based on Danish conditions and should be used with caution elsewhere, where interest rates, tax and market conditions may differ. You can still message the seller, sign an NDA and make offers on Sitavo. The purchase price is paid directly to the seller — Sitavo does not handle payment.
