    Costs to set up a BV in the Nethelands

    Thanks for the suggestion - in this particular case the NL holding is needed as it will be used to acquire an existing business in the NL. While in theory a holding in Spain or elsewhere in the EU should be fine - to keep things simple from an admin point as well as raising finance etc. we want...

    Form Canada British Columbia (BC) Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) Online

    I set up an LP in Ontario a few years back, but as with BC, it had to be done in person. I assume this is the same in all provinces across Canada. In Ontario, you can at least download the forms and mail them in to the provincial office for LP registration if you are unable to do it in person...

    Costs to set up a BV in the Nethelands

    Hello all - I along with 3 partners are looking to set up a holding company in the Netherlands (mainly because we are going to be buying another business in the NL and the intent is to set up a sort of hybrid SPV/Holding Company that will be used for future transactions, not just this one off...

    Canadian LLP - good for privacy?

    LP and LLP are slightly different. LP's are available in most provinces, whereas LLP's are generally reserved for certain professions (i.e accounting, law etc.) However the province of BC allows other types of activities for LLP's and therefore can be formed for a large variety of activities...

    What if I don't file the 5742 form for an inactive LLC?

    I was in a similar situation - I never did file the 5742. I just ended up closing my LLC, less than 1 year into its operation as I just never got around using it. There was no IRS follow up or anything. If your EIN was never used (i.e no bank's registering it etc.) then the IRS is not going to...

    SPV in Estonia

    A few years ago I had e-residency and an Estonian OU for a while. But I found that Estonian OU's/e-Residency based projects are more suitable for small businesses/e-businesses etc. I do not think Estonia is suitable to set up acqusition companies. If you need investors or other financing...

    USA Company UBO Reporting Regime

    Just wondering if any body has any new updates on this? It certainly makes Wyoming or New Mexico etc. LLC's less attractive. I found this today: Will the Belgian authorities soon be informed of your US business presence ? - Taxpatria

    German taxes based on nationality like USA

    I know in places like France, populist movements like that of Jean-Luc Melanchon also want to propose taxation based on citizenship. But whether its Germany, France or anywhere else in the EU, I am of the opinion that it would be near impossible to impose. EU Treaties would need to be...

    france spain italy company formation options

    Incorporating in France isn't so bad - probably middle of the road in terms of tax efficiency. France also practices territorial taxation, so there may be some options to have foreign income tax-free. But for this you will need an accountant who knows better who such things work in reality. The...

    How to live in another EU country?

    I always thought that 90 day rule was only for non-EU nationals? I think there may be situations where as a Czech citizen you may need to register for Slovenian health insurance and similar (i.e. social security number and the likes), but I don't think there's an obligation for a residence permit?

    Moving To Switzerland. Best Offshore Company To Open or Structure to use?

    Not sure if this works, but maybe worth a thought: Assuming you are not a HNW individual and that you're looking to keep your costs low - maybe set up your company somewhere offshore in a jurisdiction with low reporting requirements and just register a Branch office in Switzerland. Normally a...

    Need some help and advice in creating a LLC in the US

    These guys were mentioned in another thread: Asset Protection and Tax Advisors - Anderson Business Advisors. I have not used them myself, but they look interesting and I may consider them going forward. With that said, you can always convert from an LLC to an Inc. in the future. I'd suggest...

    Need some help and advice in creating a LLC in the US

    I do some Freight/Logistics work in the US (technology related business, not dispatch or anything) and I too am EU based. In my case though I have US 'dependent agents' and so I was advised to set up a US C-Corp (i.e. an Inc.) instead of an LLC. Yes there is a double taxation issue, but the...

    Netherlands VS. Estonia

    I'm not 100% sure, but I previously understood that if you set up a BV in the NL (i.e. a Dutch LLC of sorts), the director is subject to a minimum salary of 45K EUR - not sure how this works in practical terms though...

    Need some help and advice in creating a LLC in the US

    The other way of looking at it: ok you are setting up a Dispatcher Service - can I assume this to be a Truck/Freight Dispatch Service? If so, this is not the same as being a Freight Broker/Freight Agent and so ultimately your clients are Truck Drivers. Maybe you don't even need a US LLC? Since...

    Swiss company + DE Iban

    You can try these guys ifj.ch - I think they're funded by the cantonal authorities, so I guess they're legit. But with that said, in Switzerland if you are not resident there, you will need a locally resident director, pay notary fees etc. and this is probably why you're getting the 10K+ quotes...

    Business PayPal for foreign owned US LLC?

    I've heard similar. I have a business opportunity in the US and I will need a US LLC soon. I will likely just settle on a Mercury bank account and limit myself to bank-to-bank transfers and avoid PayPal altogether - despite the convenience PayPal offers. My opportunity is purely B2B, so...

    Companies in France are not taxed on non-French income?

    Indeed - thanks for the Deloitte link. I mean France is by no means a tax haven. You can even call it a tax hell with all the social security charges. But say you use France for just a holding company, holding shares in various onshore/offshore trading companies etc. potentially there might be...

    Companies in France are not taxed on non-French income?

    For those who understand/read French - I came across this off the French Tax Ministry website: https://www.impots.gouv.fr/portail/international-professionnel/impot-sur-les-societes "Votre entreprise est imposable à l'IS sur ses bénéfices uniquement si elle est exploitée en France. Cela veut...

    Canada LP/LLP Company setup + Bank account

    Actually - I left Canada as a resident back in the 1990s, but my LP was set up back in 2016 - not sure if the rules have changed since 2016 though, but rest assured I'm sharing a more recent experience than something from the 90s!
