Overview of changes

In 2016, the Federal Law "On Limited Liability Companies" 14-FZ was amended twice:

Federal Law of April 6, 2016 No. 82-FZ. Art. 6 of this law, paragraph 5 of Art. 2 of the Law "On LLC". Previously, society was required to have a round seal, after the changes came into force, this obligation was transformed into a right. Thus allowing the public to make or not make a round seal as they see fit. However, the law may still provide for the duty of the society to have a seal. Also, information about the presence of a seal should be reflected in the charter of the LLC.
Federal Law of June 29, 2016 No. 210-FZ. And this law was amended by Art. 6. This time they touched on paragraph 3 of Art. 8 of the Law "On LLC". Now, the founders, having concluded an agreement on the exercise of the rights of the company's participants, can not only refrain from exercising their rights, but also refuse to exercise them. Also, in paragraph 3 of Art. 8, a paragraph was added that fixed the obligation of participants to notify the company of the fact of concluding an agreement on the exercise of the rights of participants in the company, no later than 15 days from the date of its conclusion. Otherwise, the participants of the company who are not included in the agreement may demand compensation for the losses received by them as a result of non-notification.

However, there is a third legal act, which has already partially entered into force, but a significant block of changes in the Federal Law "On Limited Liability Companies" will be effective only from 01/01/2017 - Federal Law of March 30, 2016 No. 67-FZ.

Here is a list of changes that will be introduced Art. 3 of Law No. 67-FZ to the Law "On LLC":

In Art. 17, clause 3 will be added, which will introduce mandatory notarization of the decision to increase the authorized capital and the composition of the company's participants. It is interesting that this change creates a legal conflict, that is, it contradicts the norms of paragraph 3 of part 3 of Art. 67.1 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, which states that the adoption of decisions by the general meeting of participants and the composition of the company's participants is notarized only if the company's charter does not provide for other ways of certification (signatures of all participants, using technical means and so on).
In paragraph 5 of Art. 21, the words “notarized” will be introduced after the words “at their own expense”. Thus, an offer submitted by a participant who intends to sell his share in the company must be notarized.
Abs. 3 paragraph 5 of Art. 21 will be supplemented and set out in a different edition, but its essence will not change: the period for using the pre-emptive right when buying a share may be longer than specified in the law. To do this, it is necessary to provide for an appropriate period in the charter of the company.
The first sentence of paragraph 11 of Art. 21 will be set out in a new edition, after which, all transactions for the alienation of a share must be notarized. If the notarial form is not observed, then such a transaction is considered invalid.
Exceptions to notarial certification of transactions will be: transactions with shares owned by the company. The norm enshrined in Part 2 of Art. 24, which states that the charter may provide for the alienation of a share belonging to the company to a third party. However, such a scheme does not bring any benefit, since the participant's exit, in any case, passes through a notarization.
P. 13 Art. 21 will be reworded and supplemented by one more paragraph. This paragraph will provide an exact list of documents required by a notary to certify transactions for the alienation of a share in a company.
P. 14 Art. 21 will be revised. Now, after the transaction for the alienation of a share in the company, the notary submits an application signed by the participant to the state registration authority to make the appropriate changes. The application may be submitted by mail or other means. After the changes come into force, such an application will be signed by the notary himself, certify his signature with a seal and submit to the state registration authority only in the form of an electronic document.
P. 2 Art. 22 will be supplemented by one more paragraph, and paragraph 3 of the same article is set out in a new edition. After the amendments come into force, it will be fixed that the share pledge agreement, which implies the occurrence of a pledge of a share or part of a share in the future, is now subject to notarization.
Para. will be added. 2 p. 2 art. 23. If a participant voted against the conclusion of a major transaction, and he puts forward a demand for the acquisition of his share by the company, such a demand must be notarized.

Abs. 1 p. 1 art. 26 will be added. A participant who wants to leave the company, among other things, submits an application that is notarized in accordance with all the rules of the legislation on notaries in the Russian Federation.

The following changes have been made:

Federal Law No. 360-FZ of July 3, 2016 (as amended on November 30, 2016) “On Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation”
