Bank for Seychelles IBC

[Martin Everson]

No problem with either. Problem is Seychelles company and Ukraine Residency or nationality.

I'm afraid you will not be able to open a bank account anywhere in the‌ EU for a Seychelles company. That country is blacklisted, there's nothing you can do.

 

[W4rhol]

And anyone have suggestion for open a bank account (no EMI) for a remote opening‌ for French Citizen

 

[lostguy]

I'm happy with my remote opened Cyprus bank account. Have one for a Belize company‌ and one for a Seychelles corp. If you have shitty business don't play with them.‍ If your business is mainstream and regular you can use them without any fear!

 

[HKTT]

Lostguy, which Cyprus bank(s) allowed you to open remotely? I thought they wanted personal visits‌ to open accounts.

 

[diablo]

All of them do, just find an introducer‍ and you are fine!

 

[HKTT]

Got it. Next question would be where to find a good short list of introducers.‌ IIRC in the past when I asked Bank of Cyprus, they gave me a link‍ to all of Cyprus lawyers and basically said, good luck.

Reminds me of the movie⁠ Boiler Room: "You want leads, here's the phone book".

 

[JohnLocke]

😀 that's the way it is, they can't recommend you a introducer‍ because of a conflict of interest!

What business are you actually into?

 

[HKTT]

Vacation property rentals.

@Martin Everson I am an EU resident⁠ and thinking of setting up an IBC or CSL in Seychelles. Are there any options⁤ other than Cyprus for a bank account?

 

[Spinat]

You may go for an EMI account for your setup. It's going to be very‌ difficult to setup any bank account for an offshore entity even for an onshore!

 

[Martin Everson]

Just like blueweb an EMI is the way to go or try a bank in‌ the Seychelles like the former BMI bank which is now:

Any emails or feedback forms on site. Do you have‌ one?

Move to Paraguay and become a resident by showing around 1k euros monthly income. Get‌ naturalized in just 3 years.

 

[zeytin]

if opening a real bank account for Seychelles is too hard, is it the same‌ for BVI or Belize IBC companies?

 

[Mr Magoo]

yes, I would forget‍ about a regular bank account for a BZ or BVI company. Just google this forum.⁠ Research banking options before incorporating.

 

[JohnSeed]

Transferwise, ePayments and PaySera are the one to use for this type of companies, works‌ perfectly fine.

 

[zeytin]

I heard that Transferwise asks for serious documents‍ after 50K usd of transactions. I've checked transferwise help page and they are not easy⁠ to dealt with

[JohnSeed]

It depends on where the money comes from and how good you are in preparing‌ supporting documents in such cases.

Paysera no longer opens accounts for companies from outsite EU/EEA, e. g. Seychelles, Hong Kong‌ etc.
