Company Formation

We offer expert services in setting up a variety of business entities to match your specific needs:

1. Limited Liability Company (LLC)

The Limited Liability Company (LLC) is one of the most common and flexible types of business entities. It offers the advantages of both partnerships and corporations by providing limited liability for its owners (members) and the ability to structure the business as per the members’ needs.

• Limited Liability Protection: Protects personal assets from business liabilities and debts.
• Flexible Management: LLCs can be managed by members or appointed managers.
• Tax Flexibility: LLCs can choose how they want to be taxed (as a corporation, partnership, or sole proprietorship).
• Ideal For: Small and medium-sized businesses, startups, and family-owned businesses.

2. Sole Proprietorship

A Sole Proprietorship is the simplest form of business ownership, where an individual runs the business alone and is responsible for all aspects, including profits, liabilities, and debts.

• Full Control: You have complete control over all aspects of the business.
• Simplified Taxation: The business profits are reported directly on your personal tax return.
• No Formal Registration Required: In many jurisdictions, no formal incorporation is required to start a sole proprietorship.
• Ideal For: Freelancers, consultants, and small businesses with one owner.

3. Corporation (Inc.)

A Corporation (Inc.) is a legal entity separate from its owners (shareholders), providing the highest level of liability protection. Corporations are subject to more formalities, but they also enjoy certain advantages such as the ability to raise capital by issuing shares.

• Limited Liability Protection: Shareholders are not personally liable for business debts.
• Raising Capital: Can issue shares of stock to raise capital from investors.
• Tax Structure: Corporations are taxed as separate entities, but can also benefit from tax deductions and credits.
• Ideal For: Larger businesses, companies seeking investors, or those planning to go public.

4. Partnership

A Partnership involves two or more individuals or entities sharing ownership, management, and profits. Partnerships can be general partnerships (GP) or limited partnerships (LP), with varying degrees of liability and responsibility for partners.

• Shared Responsibility: Partners share the management and responsibilities of the business.
• Tax Pass-Through: Partnerships benefit from pass-through taxation, meaning the business profits are taxed on the individual partners’ returns.
• Flexibility: Partnerships offer flexibility in structuring management and profit-sharing agreements.
• Ideal For: Professional services (law firms, accounting firms) and businesses with shared ownership.

5. Branch Office / Representative Office

A Branch Office or Representative Office allows foreign companies to establish a presence in a new market without fully incorporating a new company. It is typically used by international businesses looking to expand into new regions.

• Same Legal Identity: The branch office is considered an extension of the parent company.
• Limited Operations: A representative office can only engage in non-revenue generating activities like marketing, customer service, and market research.
• Ideal For: International companies expanding into new markets.

6. Offshore Company Formation

For businesses looking to take advantage of favorable tax jurisdictions, we provide offshore company formation services. Offshore companies are registered in low-tax or tax-free regions and offer various financial advantages.

• Tax Benefits: Lower corporate tax rates or tax exemptions.
• Privacy and Confidentiality: Enhanced privacy protection for owners and shareholders.
• Asset Protection: Protection of assets from local jurisdictional claims.
• Ideal For: International businesses, holding companies, and investors.
