What is a Seychelles International Business Company (IBC)?
A Seychelles IBC is a flexible, tax-efficient offshore company. It offers complete exemption from Seychelles taxes on foreign-sourced income, high confidentiality, and a simple structure requiring only one director and shareholder.
Is my personal information truly private?
Yes. Director, shareholder, and beneficial owner details are not public. Only the registered agent holds this info. Nominee services add an extra layer of anonymity for day-to-day operations.
What taxes does a Seychelles IBC pay?
Zero tax on profits, dividends, interest, or capital gains from activities outside Seychelles. No withholding taxes apply to payments made to non-residents.
How long does incorporation take?
Registration is fast — usually 24 to 48 hours after KYC and payment. The full package with apostille can be ready and shipped within a few business days.
Do I need a local director or shareholder?
No residency requirements. You can be the sole director, or use nominee services for privacy. Nominees have no operational control; you retain authority via POA and Declaration of Trust.
Are there any ongoing compliance or audit requirements?
No mandatory financial audits or filing of annual statements for standard IBCs. You must maintain a registered agent and office (included in packages) and pay annual license fees.
Can I open a bank account with a Seychelles IBC?
Yes, many international banks accept Seychelles IBCs. We provide warm introductions to suitable banking and payment solutions. Success depends on your business profile and risk level.
What documents do I need to provide?
Clear passport scan, proof of residential address (utility bill/bank statement dated within 3 months), and a brief business activity description.
Do you provide Apostille and document delivery?
Yes. Seychelles is part of the Hague Apostille Convention. We can apostille all corporate documents for international recognition and courier them via DHL/FedEx.
Is a Seychelles IBC suitable for crypto, trading, or e-commerce?
Yes, it is common due to privacy and tax advantages. Note that banks apply stricter scrutiny for these industries; we recommend combining it with our merchant/crypto gateway services.
