Legal and accounting support for chemical production

Typical Challenges and Obstacles

Companies in the chemical manufacturing sector face numerous challenges.
Here are the key ones:

• Registration of a company with a special status → strict compliance with production safety measures.
• Regulatory complexity and frequent legislative changes → may lead to fines and production downtime.
• Obtaining permits and licenses → time-consuming process with business risks.
• Environmental and industrial risks → high probability of penalties and reputational damage.
• Complex accounting → multi-level accounting of raw materials, finished products, and waste.
• Customs and foreign trade barriers → difficulties in product classification and customs documentation.
• Contractual risks → financial disputes and conflicts with partners.
• Personnel and labor issues → working with hazardous substances.
• Compliance and specific internal policies → storage and disposal control.

Each of these challenges is addressed through the coordinated work of a lawyer and an accountant: we transform technical and legal requirements into effective documentation, accounting, and contracts.
