group interests.
● A non-profit company must be formed by at least three persons who will be the company’s
first directors.
● It must have at least three directors, but they are not allowed to obtain any financial gain
from the company other than remuneration for the work they perform.
● A non-profit company does not have to have members. If these companies have
members, some members may enjoy voting rights, while others may not.
● The income and property of non-profit companies are not distributable to its incorporators,
members, directors, officers or persons related to any of them. Upon liquidation, income and
assets must be paid over to another non-profit company, voluntary association or trust with a
similar purpose.
