    Politically Exposed Person Lawyer certification + BVI?

    It is very unusual to be asked for this. In reality providers and registries etc are responsible for ensuring that you are or are not a PEP. This should be done by carrying our searches via WorldCheck/Accuity etc where a negative result is obtained. If there is any confusion i.e. similar named...

    Which company can help me with setup Nevis Company with Bank account

    I think sometimes people take the tax changes in these offshore locations too literally and often don't look at the limitations that affect their application. They can be very complicated, but in BVI the activities that are impacted are: Banking Business; Insurance Business; Fund Management...

    CRS of Foundations

    So if CRS changes in the future and encompasses incorporation agents, the information given to incorporation agents will need to be disclosed. Do take into account however that incorporation agents will only know what they are told about UBO's by the client and so only that information can...

    Offshore Company for Forex Trading

    Hi, Did you check with the broker you intend to use where they will need the company to be incorporated? This should be your first step, following which a company structure can be put together in an acceptable location and banking can also be considered at that point. From a banking point of...

    Opening a company anonymously

    Hi @happyjohn The best way to make actual US banking available is to be available for a visit in person. Most people don't want to make the trip to the US, but this gives the banks far more comfort and while they will still consider nature of business etc they are far more likely to grant an...

    Cyprus company tax before or after dividends

    Corporate tax is on the pre-dividend figure. I think @Gediminas is referring to tax on the dividend itself. Toggle signature

    Turnerlittle unable to open decent bank account for HK company

    @CaLViN I have also sent a DM on the forum to you today, but have not received a response. It is incorrect to say that other options don't exist. There are always options, but as you have not responded to indicate who you are, I am unable to look at your file at this time. Again, I am available...

    Lebanon for Banking Secrecy and Offshore?

    Lebanon will cause you no end of problems. It may be possible to open a bank account there but transacting outside Lebanon will be incredibly difficult as it is disliked by almost all banks worldwide. Toggle signature

    How safe is a nominee?

    Documentation designed to protect you and which is created at the time of appointment is very important and should be kept safe. In 99.9% of cases you will not have an issue in the event of lost documents as most Nominees are perfectly sensible, legitimate and professional people with no...

    How safe is a nominee?

    I think you should consider Nominee risk from a couple of angles to be honest. 1. Is the Nominee safe in terms of disclosure of who they act for and 2. Are they safe in terms of accessing your funds / company etc 1. It is highly unlikely that any Nominee is realistically going to throw...

    Advice needed on a St Vincent and the Grenadines company - registered with SFM

    Agree entirely with the above. Going to SVG is not going to help you in any way. The fact that a POA exists could potentially be helpful. I would suggest that we review the Articles and POA document (well ideally every document you have) to see if there is anything that can be done in the first...

    Maintain IBC in good standing

    Hi, It is not compulsory to obtain a COGS, but is your only receipt to demonstrate that the company is in good standing so most people to tend to obtain one each year. I would certainly do this if the company holds assets. Toggle signature

    Advice needed on a St Vincent and the Grenadines company - registered with SFM

    Hi, I agree with @Gediminas the information you have given looks very messy indeed. Not to mention alarming that a agent may lose contact with their own nominee and would not have the foresight to put in place documentation enabling the later removal of nominees without their consent. That is...

    Cheap company + bank account

    Agree with @Admin that Seychelles, Belize etc works where no filing or accounting is required (although Belize accounting rules have changed) and banking can be arranged for companies in these locations remotely. While banking takes a little longer than it used to do, it is still readily...
