Information about Nevis IBC’s

Nevis IBC is incorporated under the Nevis Business Corporation(amendment) Ordinance, 2019. The document is based on the corporate legislation of the US State of Delaware.

The name of a Nevis IBC must end in one of the following endings: Corporation, Incorporated, Company, Limited or the abbreviation of one of these words.

The name must be different from an already existing or reserved corporate name in Nevis.

Each company must have a Nevis registered office address and a local registered agent authorized by the Nevis government to represent the company. Our IBC packages include both of these.

Principal office address (business address) may be in any country.

Shares of a Nevis IBC may be issued to individuals or companies, who are residents of any country.

A minimum of one shareholder is required. A minimum of one share of US$1.00 must be issued to that shareholder.

If you need a nominee shareholder , our company is able to provides such service.

A resident of any country individual or legal entity (such as a Corporation, LLC, Trust, etc.) may be appointed as Director of a Nevis IBC.

A minimum of three directors is required. However, if a Nevis company has fewer than 3 shareholders it is allowed to have less than 3 directors. Therefore, one person may create a company being a sole director and shareholder.

Officers such as President and Treasurer shall be individuals. Secretary may be an individual or corporation. Officers may be a resident of any country.

One individual may be appointed as Director, President, Secretary and Treasurer.

If you need a nominee director and shareholder, our company is able to provide nominees. However, in most cases it’s preferable to be appointed as a director of your own Nevis Corporation. It simplifies dealing with banks, suppliers and customers and makes the annual renewal fee cheaper.

The standard Nevis IBC authorized capital is US$50,000, divided into 50,000 registered shares of US$1.00 each. Such capital keeps the incorporation and annual cost of a Nevis IBC at a minimum level and perfectly fits the business needs of 99% of our clients.

Authorized capital is the amount, which the company may receive from its shareholders in consideration for the issued shares. For example, if a company has an authorized capital of US$50,000 divided into 50,000 registered shares of US$1.00 each, the company is allowed to issue up to 50,000 registered shares and receive from its shareholders not less than US$1.00 for each issued share.

A Nevis IBC is not obliged to issue all its shares for the total amount of authorized capital in any mandatory time frames. The company could issue just one share to a single shareholder and the remaining shares or any parts of them may be issue any time in the future or not at all.

All issued shares must be paid by the shareholders. It means, if a company issued one share of US$1.00, the shareholder must pay to the company US$1.00.

Each Nevis Corporation must pay the annual renewal fee starting from the second year. Our annual fees are listed in the Fee Schedule.
