What type of shares can a Seychelles company have?

[clemens]

Need to know if there are any restrictions on the type of shares for a Seychelles company?

What I do know is that it can be bearer shares or registered shares, but not what other options there are?!

Shares may be divided into such number of classes and series as the Directors may determine and any class or series of shares may be issued including:

• No par value shares
• Voting shares or non-voting shares or both
• Unnumbered shares
• Shares that may have more or less than one vote per share
• Shares that carry voting rights only when held by persons who meet specified requirements
• Shares that carry voting rights only in relation to certain matters or only upon the occurrence of certain events
• Shares that entitle participation only in certain assets
• Common shares, preference shares and redeemable shares

You are correct, the company can be registered with bearer shares! But we don't advice to do so since it will be difficult to open a bank account if needed.

So bearer shares is not an option, but as far as I know, one can leave the bearer shares with the bank and they are fine..? Don't help if anonymity is the first priority I know but it is still a valid option...

Thank you anyway for the above information, helps...

Shares that carry voting rights only when held by persons who meet specified requirements

Thats a major benefit over the other offshore companies, you can have the share registered with voting rights and this limited...
