The complete picture, honestly framed
An offshore company without a working bank account is a certificate in a drawer. The account is the structure's engine — and it is also the step where DIY attempts and list-based providers fail, because they run the sequence backwards: incorporate, then spray applications, then discover which desks were never approving that profile in the first place.
Our desk inverts it. The institution match happens first, free, on a call — and the application only exists once we believe it opens. That single inversion is the difference between our 96% and the market's coin-flip.

Why no institution is named on this page
The most common question, answered first.
Deliberate, and in your interest. Institution appetite for non-resident structures shifts quarterly — a name published here today would be stale within a season and would send readers to desks no longer approving their profile. Worse, serial applications to the wrong desks leave visible rejection trails that damage every later attempt.
So the sequence runs the other way: you tell us the profile on a free 15-minute call, we name the current match live — institution, expected timeline, balance expectations, whether video onboarding applies — and only then does anything get signed or paid. The match is the product; the call is where you receive it.
Straight answer. One rule we never break: we do not submit a file we do not believe will open. That discipline is the whole 96%.
How the account actually gets opened — our 5-step sequence
This sequence — match first, apply second — is the entire reason our approval rate is 96%.
You tell us the activity, the currencies, the countries money comes from and goes to, and roughly the balances involved. No documents needed yet — just the honest shape of the business.
We map your profile against the institutions in our network that are currently approving files like yours — appetite changes quarterly, and tracking it is our job. You learn which match we've made on the call, not on a web page.
Passport, proof of address, source-of-funds evidence, business summary and the company documents — assembled to the standard the chosen institution actually applies, because we know what its compliance team asks before it asks.
We submit through the right channel and prepare you for the compliance conversation — most questions are predictable when the file was built for that specific desk. Several institutions in our network complete this by video call.
IBAN issued, online banking active, cards and multi-currency wallets configured. Typical end-to-end: 1–4 weeks depending on the institution and how fast documents arrive.

Not a slogan — the outcome of refusing to submit files to desks that were never going to approve them.
Compliance-proof file
We build the pack to the standard the specific desk applies — so the questions that come are the ones we prepared you for.
Ongoing bank-readiness
Annual reviews pass in days, not months, because the corporate file never goes stale at our desk.
