Vanuatu Company + CIM Banque Account
Every serious offshore engagement starts with the same three questions: what are you protecting, where will you bank, and what will the structure cost to run in year three — not just year one.
This package pairs a Vanuatu International Company (0% corporate and income tax, formation in 24 hours) with a corporate account at CIM Banque in Geneva, Switzerland — swiss banking with genuine remote account opening for offshore entities. CIM Banque is one of very few Swiss banks that onboards offshore companies fully remotely.
Why This Pairing Works
Vanuatu delivers the structure: pacific trading, financial dealers licences, no minimum capital, and confidential registers. CIM Banque delivers the rails: CHF, USD, EUR + 20 currencies with chf/usd 10,000 typical. The compliance narrative connecting the two — activity, corridors, source of funds — is what GoldenKey engineers before either application is filed.
Package Scope
- Full Vanuatu incorporation under the Vanuatu International Companies Act with registered agent and office for year one
- Apostilled corporate document pack prepared to CIM Banque's checklist
- Bank application build, submission and compliance-query handling to decision
- Compliance calendar covering renewal (low annual fee) and bank review cycles
Frequently Asked Questions
Will CIM Banque accept a Vanuatu company?
Acceptance depends on activity, ownership clarity and substance — not the jurisdiction alone. Swiss banking with genuine remote account opening for offshore entities. GoldenKey pre-validates the fit before you commit.
What is the combined timeline?
Formation completes in 24 hours; 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?
Fully remote video onboarding for the bank. The Vanuatu incorporation itself is fully remote through our registered agent network.
