Corporate • Company Registration

Company registration and corporate setup for cross-border business.

We help founders and international teams incorporate companies, design shareholder structures, prepare corporate documents, and set up a legally clean baseline for banking, payments, hiring and commercial contracts — with a focus on practicality and speed.

The right setup is not just “a company”. It’s ownership, governance, risk separation, and documents that match how you operate.

Typical scenarios

Founders need a clean corporate vehicle for a new product or expansion.
International shareholders require a clear cap table and governance.
Banking/payment onboarding needs proper corporate documents.
Holding/opco structuring for IP, licensing and risk separation.

Scope

What we do in a company registration project

We cover registration end-to-end, plus the documents and decisions that prevent painful restructuring later. Depending on jurisdiction, we work with local counsel and corporate service providers.

Step 1

Jurisdiction & structure selection

Choose the country and the legal form that fits your business model and risk profile.

Shortlist based on residency, banking, taxes, and operations.
Legal form and governance baseline (director/shareholder model).
Holding/opco logic and IP routing (if needed).
Practical constraints: substance, reporting, costs, timelines.

Outcome: a clear setup plan, not a random incorporation.

Step 2

Incorporation & filings

Prepare and submit incorporation documents, coordinate signing, and obtain registry extracts.

Company name checks and reservation (if applicable).
Charter/articles, application forms, share capital details.
Registered office / agent coordination (as required).
Registry extracts and corporate “starter pack” documents.

Outcome: the company is legally established and documented.

Step 3

Corporate documents & governance

Put governance on paper so ownership, voting, and controls are clear.

Shareholder resolutions and director appointment set.
Shareholder agreement (optional, but strongly recommended).
Founder vesting / transfer restrictions (where needed).
Signatory rules and basic internal approvals matrix.

Outcome: fewer disputes and better investor readiness.

Optional

Banking & payments readiness

Support for onboarding banks, EMI/PSPs and payment providers.

Corporate profile and business narrative for onboarding.
Document set preparation and “red flag” mitigation.
KYC pack coordination for UBOs and directors.
Operational policy baseline (where requested by providers).

Outcome: smoother onboarding and fewer rejections.

Optional

IP & contract baseline

Ensure the company can legally operate: IP ownership, contractors, and key templates.

Founder/contractor IP assignments and NDAs.
Basic vendor/service agreement template system.
Website legal pack for product launch (if needed).
Holding/opco licensing (if IP sits in holding).

Related: IP & IT.

Ongoing

Post-registration support

Keep the company compliant and ready for growth.

Annual filings, corporate housekeeping, director changes.
Share issuances/transfers and cap table updates.
Contract and compliance support as you scale.
Preparation for investment rounds and DD readiness.

Outcome: legal continuity, not “one-time incorporation”.

Approach

How we run the process

We keep it structured: understand your model → pick the jurisdiction and form → incorporate → deliver corporate documents → help you operate safely.

What we ask first

Who the shareholders are (residency, number of owners, UBO structure).
What you do: business model, target markets, payment flows.
Whether you need employees/contractors and where they are based.
Banking/payment needs and expected transaction profile.

If your case is sensitive (high-risk industries, crypto, complex flows), we scope compliance and banking readiness early.

Typical engagement paths

Fast incorporation

Incorporation + basic corporate docs + registry extracts.

Founder-ready

Add shareholder agreement + governance matrix + IP baseline.

Bank-ready

Add onboarding narrative + KYC pack + compliance baseline (if needed).

Group structuring

Holding/opco setup + IP licensing + intercompany agreements.

FAQ

Common questions

Short answers. The best setup depends on your model and jurisdictions.

How do you help choose a jurisdiction?

We shortlist options based on your shareholders, business model, banking needs, reporting burden, and practical ability to operate. Then we propose a structure that is legally coherent (ownership, governance, IP, contracts).

Do you register companies worldwide?

We work on multi-jurisdiction registrations through a network of local partners. We lead the process, align documents, and keep the structure consistent.

Do we need a shareholder agreement?

Often yes, especially with multiple founders or external investors. It helps define voting, exits, transfer restrictions and dispute resolution.

Can you also help after the company is registered?

Yes. We support ongoing corporate maintenance, share issuances/transfers, contract system setup, IP structuring and compliance.

Need to register a company and get a clean corporate setup?

Send a short note: what you do, where you operate, who the shareholders are (residency), and whether you need banking/payment onboarding. We will propose a shortlist of jurisdictions and the scope of work.

If you already picked a jurisdiction, we can scope the incorporation + documents + post-registration steps.

Good fit for this service:

Founders setting up an international company for a digital business.
Teams with multiple shareholders and cross-border operations.
Businesses needing bank/payment onboarding readiness.
Groups building holding/opco structures for risk and IP separation.

Practical output: incorporation + coherent governance + documents that match how you operate.
