Yes, according to a few different OSPs I have been in contact with, it should not be too difficult for a Belize company to open an account in a different country (including Latvia). The Belize IBC will make (starting first year) about $250,000/year gross sales with about $100,000 net profit...

Please tell me if you think this proposed offshore structure is good for the objectives I am trying to accomplish, or if you think the structure is overkill. (See my question at the end.) MY OFFSHORE OBJECTIVES I do not want the tax authorities from France or Canada (I have dual citizenship)...

What is the renewal cost for a Belize company with you?

Do you know if it's possible to open an account at Hong Kong HSBC with a Belize or Seychelles company?

Reasonable in my opinion is something that is not tied to how much money is being transferred or stored at the bank. I've seen some banks that charge a % of incoming/outgoing wire fees, which I think is nothing more then outright theft. I'm happy to pay a simple flat fee for wire transfers or...

Hello, I am trying to figure out where to open a bank account that suites my needs. Based on this, I will open an IBC that owns the bank account. (ie: I am looking for recommendations on what country and what bank to use.) My plan is to deposit my businesses earnings into the bank account...

Any suggestions? I'm willing to pay for consultation, of course. :)

Can you explain this a bit more? From what I can see, neither country has a public registry of shareholders or directors. Why is Seychelles considered better privacy? Thanks!

Hello, I'm considering to create an IBC in Belize for my online internet business. I would get a corporate bank account and a merchant account associated with it. What I am looking for is anonymity and secrecy from North American and European governments. I do not want to be linked or...

Thanks coromandel. :) Last edited by a moderator: Mar 26, 2013

Yes, I was actually on the brink of creating a Seychelles/HK company structure and the service provider I was going to use informed me that they will no longer be able to provide the nominee service I was going to purchase for the HK company. While they do provide personal (not corporate)...

Thanks Zqq. The problem I am trying to resolve is that 85% of my customers are in the USA and 15% are in the EU... but I want to have an "offshore" (not north America) location for my business and money to be located. (My reason to start this thread topic was that I thought maybe I can use a USA...

Hello, From what I understand, Nevada imposes no state corporate taxes. So there is only the federal corporate tax, which is 15% on the first $50k, etc... So let's say that the Nevada company is owned by a Seychelles holding company, could I use some kind of scheme to reduce the tax payable...

Thanks Zqq, that gives me some info I can look into. This stuff sure is complicated. (Or maybe I'm just over-complicating it all.) I really wish there was some kind of reputable service where I could pay a fee to have a personal consultation from an "offshore industry" expert. If you set up...

Hello, In my research into creating a Hong Kong company, Zqq (a member of these forums) told me that some changes are going to occur in 2014. Specifically, a Hong Kong company will be required to have at least one "natural person" as a director. So this means if you have a HK company that is...

Thanks Zqq. I've got a big spreadsheet that I am keeping track of everything so I can more easily compare. Mostly I am interested in ongoing costs such as outgoing transfer fees, monthly maintenance fees, etc... My needs are very very basic. This account will just be a repository for incoming...

Quite a few. As I am doing my research and investigation into my options... I'm asking slightly different questions to try and get a complete picture of how things work. My fear is that I will pull the trigger on a structure that later turns out to burn me because I didn't ask the right...

I am looking to maximize privacy, so that it is more difficult to trace "ownership" of anything to me personally. What is the better setup? 1. Create a Seychelles holding company (not using nominees) which is the director/shareholder (owner) of a Hong Kong company. 2. Create the Hong Kong...

Hello, I am looking to open a corporate account in Hong Kong for my Hong Kong company. I know about HSBC and it seems like everyone recommends them.. but they don't explain why they are "better" than the others. It seems like all the major banks are the same. What do you think? Is there a...

Hello, Do I really need to keep the offshore company active once I have the offshore corporate bank account and merchant account established? My business is 100% virtual, and my customers don't care where my company is located or even if there is a company at all. They only care about...
