• New requirements to the Seychelles Company formation!

    As per SIBA guidelines (See page 6 and 7 click link to download) we are supposed to collect as regards the underlying owner of each new IBC:
    (a) Current Passport
    (b) National Identity Card
    (c) Current full valid driving licence

    We only need one of the above documents to stay compliant.
    Further we need:
    A recent utility bill and bank statement
    The passport, National Identity card or current full valid driving license need to be certified by a reputable bank, Consulate, Embassy, governmental body, Notary, lawyer, accountant or other professional body

      So the only changes to a Seychelles company formation are that the passport or other government issued photo ID need to be certified. The good thing is that it can be done by a bank, lawyer and even certified accountants that can help to avoid any additional costs.

      Yes that is correct, still that's not many requirements compared to other offshore jurisdictions or even onshore jurisdictions.

      Since I don't get a utility bill am I stuck? I can get my bank statement online, but I don't have a utility bill (the Landlord gets it and pays all utilities since it is their house where I rent a bedroom).
