No lame question. But when you are located in Europe and you want to have something that protects your privacy but also looks legit towards everyone that come in contact with your company then Cyprus is the most legit offshore company you can look at! Still it provides some fantastic privacy and tax benefits.deadpool said:

There have been several replies already to this. You need at least a copy of passport and utility bill in English. If you don't have the English utility bill you need to get it translated and notarized!kolagin said:

My story explains a little about how good you are protected when you setup a Seychelles Holding Company owning the shares of a Cyprus company and use a Cyprus bank account to receive the money from your customers while you pay your creditors and lenders from a local account.
For approximately 3 years I gone broke, total broke and walked to one court after the other because there were lots of creditors after me that wanted my money and I was unable to pay my rent for the flat and other expenses that I needed fir living. They accessed my accounts locally and asked me a hundred times if I had any assets or funds somewhere else because then it was the time to tell. I told them no I don't have more, even that I knew that there was a few thousands on my offshore account in the Seychelles holding company.
So after a while I got started my business again and money start floating in, the creditors still didn't got their money and someone somehow got suspicious and found out that I received money on my Cyprus bank account but could not proof that this account was belonging to me! So to make a long story short, they tried to access the account by court order which they got here in my country but not in Cyprus because there was no fraud or scam going on, and they could not get access to it. I kept telling them this account was not belonging to me (which is the truths because the account belongs to the Cyprus company) so after a while they gave up.
Hope someone can use this story for something.. it's good to do proper asset protection!

Do you know if the law you refer to is International law or country specific?Admin said:
That means the law allows you to keep the assets under these exemptions no matter how much money you owe to your creditors. It is often a good idea to convert some of your ”˜not exempt' assets into assets that are exempt. The most common creditor-exempt entities are life insurance policies, pension plans, IRAs and annuities.

How do you setup your company do you mind to explain please?doxs said:
Can you list the basics to know when it's about asset protection? It seems to me there is a wealth of things to consider before I'm ready to setup a asset protection structure offshore or am I wrong?

The usual documents i.e. passport copy and utility bill most often a bankers reference letter will be good to have by hand.kolagin said:
