Cyprus Company + HSBC Account
Choosing the right jurisdiction is the single most consequential decision in any offshore project — it determines your tax exposure, banking options, privacy and long-term compliance burden for years to come.
This package pairs a Cyprus Private Limited Company (12.5% corporate tax; ip box down to 2.5%, formation in 5–8 business days) with a corporate account at HSBC in Global (HK/UK/UAE) — unmatched global footprint across 50+ markets. HSBC remains the default choice for structures that must bank across multiple continents.
Why This Pairing Works
Cyprus delivers the structure: eu holding, ip structures, notional interest deduction, eur 1,000 typical authorised, and public register with nominee options. HSBC delivers the rails: All major currencies with varies by market; usd 50,000+ typical. The compliance narrative connecting the two — activity, corridors, source of funds — is what GoldenKey engineers before either application is filed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will HSBC accept a Cyprus company?
Acceptance depends on activity, ownership clarity and substance — not the jurisdiction alone. Unmatched global footprint across 50+ markets. GoldenKey pre-validates the fit before you commit.
What is the combined timeline?
Formation completes in 5–8 business days; banking typically adds one to six weeks depending on profile. Running both workstreams in parallel — our standard method — compresses the total.
Do I need to travel?
Relationship-managed; in-person common for the bank. The Cyprus incorporation itself is fully remote through our registered agent network.
