How to Open a Nevis Offshore Company
An offshore structure is only as strong as the planning behind it. The difference between a resilient international company and an expensive mistake usually comes down to decisions made before incorporation, not after.
Nevis is globally regarded as the strongest asset-protection LLC jurisdiction. This guide walks through the practical path for the Nevis LLC / IBC: 1–2 business days to incorporate, no minimum capital, and 0% tax on non-nevis income.
Step by Step
- Structuring call. Residency, activity and banking mapped; jurisdiction confirmed in writing.
- KYC pack. Certified passport, proof of address, source-of-funds note; name pre-cleared with the registrar.
- Filing. Incorporation under the Nevis Business Corporation Ordinance; certificate issued in 1–2 business days.
- Documents. Apostilled corporate set couriered worldwide, built to bank checklists.
- Banking & compliance. Matched bank introductions plus a renewal calendar (modest annual renewal).
