Six features of the Nevis Business Corporation Ordinance make a Nevis IBC a practical international company: it's familiar to banks, has flexible share capital, keeps its registers private, needs minimal formality, can move into or out of Nevis by continuation, and has clear tax treatment.
i.
Share certificates, registers of directors and board resolutions are what correspondent banks and counterparties expect to see.
ii.
Multiple share classes, preference and redeemable shares. Well suited to co-founders, investors and family holdings.
iii.
Registers are kept at the registered office and aren't public. Beneficial ownership is held by the agent under Nevis law.
iv.
A single director and shareholder, no residency requirement, and meetings anywhere or by written consent.
v.
Move an existing company into Nevis, or out of it, without winding up and re-forming.
vi.
Tax treatment depends on residence and substance. We confirm your position in writing before incorporation, not after.
Most Nevis IBC owners trade, invoice or hold investments, from consultants and trading companies to holding groups and families.
From founders and trading companies incorporated through us.
Incorporated in three business days, and the bank introduction was under way before the certificate arrived.
We needed a neutral holding company for a joint venture across three countries. The share classes were set up exactly as our lawyers specified.
The bank application pack was so complete that the bank asked us for almost nothing extra.
The nominee director and secretary were documented properly and disclosed to the bank from the start. Exactly as promised.
Share certificates, registers and by-laws all arrived certified and apostilled, ready for our auditors on day one.
An IBC is a corporation, with shares, directors and a board. An LLC has members and an operating agreement, and it carries Nevis's strongest statutory creditor protections. For trading and multi-investor companies choose an IBC. For holding personal wealth choose an LLC.
Yes. A Nevis IBC needs only one director and one shareholder, and they can be the same person.
That depends on where the company is resident and managed, and where its shareholders live. Controlled-foreign-company rules in your home country will usually apply. We confirm the position with your tax adviser before incorporation.
Yes. We introduce clients to banks and EMIs that onboard Nevis corporations. Approval depends on the institution's own due diligence and a credible business profile.
Yes. Nominees are always disclosed to banks, and beneficial ownership is always recorded with the registered agent. A nominee director and secretary act under a service agreement in your favour; they provide privacy on public and commercial records, not secrecy from banks or the authorities.
