Where these figures come from

Recorded on 21 September 2026, jurisdiction by jurisdiction. Rates and thresholds move, and they depend on your shareholding, your activity and your residence: we revalidate every point with a licensed adviser on the ground before committing you. That is what makes a figure quoted here still hold on the day you sign.

What we do for you

Company, registered office, banking file and annual upkeep, run by us, with a local correspondent where we have one.

Arbitration

We compare this jurisdiction with the two or three others that answer the same need, and tell you which one holds for your activity and your residence.

Incorporation

Articles, name reservation, filing with the register and collection of the official documents, through a local correspondent or our team, named before signature.

Registered office

Address on the register, mail handling, virtual office or real premises according to what local regulation actually requires.

Banking file

Preparation of the file the local institutions expect and introduction to at least two of them. No account opening is guaranteed.

Substance

Annual upkeep

Renewals, periodic filings, beneficial ownership register, deadline alerts. This is where structures get lost.
