Yes sill required, but only for internal use.. it would require a court order to get the information released which is very difficult to obtain unless you are into any financing of terrorism.yancy said:

it is a good way to get anonymity but if you are going to open bank account depending on the bank's requirement(but most banks) request for details of ultimate beneficial owner and you must provide proof of address and passport copy aswell. note there is no way nowadays that you can avoid to provide KYC documents. all agents must have KYC documents.
to provide KYC is a must according to the law and regulation because an agent must know its client (but as we know it is not 100% true that we will know the client) as someone can lie to you since you are not meeting him personally... so by having copy of passport and proof of address you can do a check on that person... because in the end if you are not complying with the law in the jurisdiction that you are base in as an agent your license is at risk.. and lastly if one is not a terrorist and is genuine then i guess it wont be a problem in abiding to the agent's requirements. 🙂
Yes that is correct BUT BE AWARE that the nominee director/ shareholder is the legal owner of the company.yancy said:
Similarly, if the Bank account is in the name of the company and the Nominee Director is the signatory to the account, then BE AWARE that the nominee director is the legal owner of the Bank account (and all its contents).

So it is good for the bank to know who the ultimate beneficial owner is and it is perfect that the ultimate beneficial owner is listed in companies record and that the nominee's have no power to execute any transaction on behalf of the company without written permission from the ultimate beneficial owner thanks to the declaration of trust.hugger said:
That said, you still have to be careful who you are incorporating your company with and specially when nominees are appointed.
