We offer you the service of creating a limited liability company (LLC) in the Marshall Islands and opening a corporate account in the British payment system. The key advantage of the offer is the opportunity to perform all the procedures 100% remotely.
The best option in the Marshall Islands is to start a company that would own ships and yachts, as this is the place of one of the largest shipping registers in the world.
This company is perfect for developing an Internet business or conducting other trading operations. Another advantage here is the absence of a lower limit on the constituent capital. Also, it is quite easy to manage the funds that need to be distributed among the founders of the company. The founders themselves are liable only to the extent of their share of the capital.
You cannot create a company for gambling, open banks or trusts, conduct business operating in insurance or reinsurance. It is important to bear in mind that there is a strong dependence of this ocean state on the United States of America. This does not mean that the leaders of America will necessarily drop in and get the information about all your financial transactions. However, it does mean that this country most likely has the ability to do so.
Now let’s discuss the main advantage – the opportunity to designate it as a form of SLLC, that is, Serial Limited Liability Company in the process of registration of an LLC. In fact, creating this form of company means establishing a number of businesses (or divisions) in the form of an LLC. Each division can engage in its own financial operations, and it risks only its own funds. Each division can have a separate bank account, separate management staff, and so on. This flexibility opens up great opportunities, limited only by your goals and ambitions.
Registration of a Company in the Form of an LLC in the Marshall Islands
You can name a company in the Marshall Islands in any language, but the name needs to be spelled in Latin letters. It is better to think of alternative options, because there is a possibility that the first name is already taken. The company name must end with the words “Limited Liability Company” (or LLC for short). The company name should not contain the words Trust, Foundation, Bank, Re-Insurance, etc.
The founding capital can be in any amount and in any currency.
Since October 2019, the Marshall Islands have been excluded from the EU offshore blacklist. The country is implementing all the requirements of the European Union in the area of information exchange. Thanks to this, the reputation of the jurisdiction and its companies has improved, attracting the attention of new entrepreneurs.
