Estonian holding ?

[alexwalter]

Hi

We are thinking about creating a holding for our Europe operation that will buy a Czech company for local business. We were thinking of Estonia but we can’t find any reliable shelf company seller do anyone knows any?

Thanks everyone

Why do you need a ready made holding company ?

Why not register a new company? It won't take a long time

How can i register without having to go there ? Also the owner of the‌ holding in Estonia will be a company so I thought it was easier to pay‍ for it since I don’t speak the language etc , if you know how to⁠ do it easily I’d be happy to hear it thanks

You can find a local lawyer or company services providers, and then sign a POA⁣ to register company

If I were setting up a holding company,

I’d go with Cyprus, BVI, or Malta,‌ mainly for security reasons.

I don’t really trust too many other countries near Europe when‍ it comes to that stuff.

You’re totally right, Europe is⁠ not going to be good for true offshore structuring. They literally make their money off⁤ taxing people and international businesses, and the regulatory trend is only getting tighter.

If you⁣ want long-term stability and a jurisdiction that actually welcomes offshore business, stick with the traditional⁢ offshore hubs where you’re wanted, places like BVI, Cayman, or Belize. They’ve︀ built their economies around attracting and protecting international companies, not squeezing them.

how do you rate Switzerland,⁠ Montenegro and Bulgaria ? according to my reading on OCT I see them often mentioned⁤ as first class destinations for tax reduction setups?
