Seychelles Company Formation
Foreign legal entity setup is a good way to expand the boundaries of your business and increase profits. The Seychelles islands belong to the classic offshore jurisdiction. This means that locally registered firms do not have obligation to pay levy on profits, file reports, conduct activities in the country.
What is seychelles company formation?
Starting a business in the islands is one of the easiest on the planet. In just 24 hours, you can get a ready-made package of documents to get started. The cycle of company formation In Seychelles is very simple for non-residents. Many foreign entrepreneurs choose an IBC – a type of legal entity which can be registered without nominal capital and standard share value. This allows them to incorporate a start-up with minimal capital investment.
We offer two options to select from – the purchase of a legal entity or individual registration:
- A ready-made legal entity is a previously registered organisation. It has a history, name and address. This option is suitable if there is no time for paperwork and the title of the firm is not that important. The business organisation can be used to create holding structures, to register royalties or copyrights and many more.
- If the name is of fundamental importance and there is enough time to go through the whole process from beginning to end, then we can help you with the registration from scratch. To learn more, contact our legal team.
Our specialists undertake all the necessary preparatory work:
- Preparation of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, Resolution on Appointment of director, meeting of founders and minutes of the shareholders meeting required for Company formation Seychelles;
- Filling out of necessary application and apostilling;
- Payment for office, mailing address, registration agent;
- Nominee services, including manager and/or secretary;
- Delivery of documents to your office by courier service.

Steps to Company registration in seychelles
Briefly, the procedure is as follows:
- Contact Fintech Harbor for advice, provide a passport and proof of address. Our lawyers will reach out to the local registration agent.
- Next comes the choice of legal form. Most often, non-residents select international business companies (IBCs). All applications for Seychelles offshore company formation are completed online, no personal presence is required. Documents must be translated into English and certified by a notary.
- In a few weeks, expect the original constituent documents.
- The last step is opening a bank account and reporting.
Important nuance: some activities, such as insurance and banking, are not available to non-residents. Such firms will be considered local and there is no special tax regime for them, they will pay income tax on a general basis.
At the end of the first year from the date of registration, each legal entity must submit annual reports. The failure will result in delisting from the public register. In 2022 there were changes in the law on companies. Now you need to keep accounting records and send them to the local office every six months. All financial documents must be kept at the company office in the islands.
