Offshore Company Formation

Once all of the requirements are known and services decided with our client, Sterling drafts and prepares all of the documents necessary to register an offshore company with the relevant offshore company registry. Therefore this is usually a simple process with the documents generated from standard templates.

Where particular requirements necessitate any modifications to standard documents and custom drafting we are able to assist with this as well. Examples which would typically necessitate this custom drafting include the following:

• where there is a shareholder agreement;
• the intended purpose of setting up an offshore company is for use as an investment company
• the offshore company is being used as a special purpose vehicle where it issues securities;
• the client desires non-standard corporate governance related provisions; and
• many other reasons.

For complex requirements, we can enlist the services of our partner lawyers or we can work with another lawyer preferred by the client.

After the offshore company incorporation process is complete, Sterling provides a host of additional services depending on the requirements of the client. Every offshore company usually requires at least minimum domiciliary services such as a local registered office and/or company secretary in the jurisdiction of incorporation. Sterling offers the necessary domiciliary services required for each of the offshore company formation jurisdictions covered. Basic domiciliary services include the following:

• local registered office;
• local registered agent (where required);
• local company secretary (where required or otherwise optional if desired); and
• safe custody of all books, registers and records in accordance with domestic legal and regulatory requirements.documents required to be maintained in the jurisdiction.
