Nominee directors and shareholders are persons supplied by or through the company which sets up‌ your company. It will be their names on all of the company documents and government‍ listings.

aha - so when I get nominees I don't get all my partners as shareholder‌ too?

You, your partners, and nominees could in theory all act as shareholders and/or directors together.‌ However, nominees are most commonly used as a way to keep the true owners' names‍ hidden from the records.
