To the CNRC, a startup is a company like any other
In Algeria, "startup" is a label granted to a company that already exists. No legal form bears that name. Before any label, you therefore set up a SARL, an EURL or a SPA, with articles stating the office address, then register it in the trade register.
For that registration, the CNRC asks for a title deed or a notarised lease in the company's name. A domiciliation contract signed before a notary is one of the accepted proofs of office. There is no address scheme specific to startups at registration.
Three solutions for a young startup's office
| Solution | How | Advantage | Limit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Domiciliation in a business centre | Notarised contract in the company's name | Stable address, low cost, 1-year or 2-year contracts | No sales to the public, no storage |
| Election of domicile (art. 21) | With a statutory auditor, chartered accountant, lawyer, notary or at the legal representative's home | No rent at the start | 2 years at most, renewable once |
| Incubator hosting | Depends on the incubator | Support on top of the address | Check that the incubator provides proof accepted by the CNRC |
The startup label and your address
The label is granted by a national labelling committee, on an application filed on the official startup.dz platform. Its criteria, set by executive decree, concern the company itself: its age, how innovative its project is, its size, who holds its capital and its growth potential. The type of premises is not one of them.
In practice, a domiciled startup can apply for the label as soon as it is registered. The platform will ask for your company documents, including the trade register extract, which shows the office address. Details of the label and its benefits are on the page about setting up a startup.
Why domiciliation suits startups
- Low fixed costs while the product is being built: 6,000 DA a month at Neuron.
- A business address for the articles, contracts, invoices and funding applications.
- No time limit set by law, unlike election of domicile under article 21.
- A real place to meet partners and investors: Neuron's meeting room costs 5,000 DA a day.
- The option to move into an office at the same address as the team grows.
What domiciliation does not cover
If your startup makes a physical product, stores equipment or receives the public, a domiciliation address is not enough for those uses. The office can remain an administrative address, but the activity itself needs suitable premises. Send your activity code to Neuron: we confirm free of charge whether domiciliation is possible before anything is signed.
