Incorporate in Seychelles
Set up a Seychelles IBC
Seychelles is a popular offshore financial center and a growing international company formation market.
International Business Companies are considered resident for tax purposes but are subject to a territorial tax system, whereby income accrued from foreign-sources is not subject to taxation.
To incorporate a Seychelles IBC, only one shareholder and one director is required, who can be either an individual or a corporation and may be non-resident.
Members benefit from confidentiality as no details are available in the public registry.
IBCs are not required to file an annual return or financial statements, as long as they do not derive income from within Seychelles.
Seychelles offshore companies are commonly used for estate planning, wealth management as well as a holding company and to conduct international trading.

Our bank account opening service is not just a mere introduction to the bank. We assist you in filling out the business plan forms appropriately and help you understand and provide business details, commercial information, and purpose/use of the bank account that a given bank wants to know in order to approve your account application.
Banks want certainty and clarity on how the account will be used. Everything must be watertight. We will work with you to make sure there is minimal ‘back and forth’ and a smooth account opening process.
