What is a shelf company?

A shelf company or a ready-made company is a business entity that is fully formed and registered with appropriate authorities, created for the purpose of selling it to clients.

Why should I choose a shelf company over a brand new company?

Acquiring a shelf company means you get hold of an entity already ready to commence operations, whereas forming a company from scratch entails going through a complex and much longer process of company registration. In other words, buying a shelf company means saving a lot of time and effort.

Can I change the company name?

The companies we offer are fully customizable, which means that after the purchase you may change their names, addresses, shareholders, share capital amount, etc. We will help you provide the amendments to relevant Registers of Entrepreneurs and other authorities.

What can I use a shelf company for?

A ready-made company is a perfect solution if you want to enter the market fast and start trading as soon as possible. You can also use your company to acquire real estate, carry out mergers and acquisitions, submit tenders, offshore, and more.

Do your companies have any trading history?

No, our shelf companies have no history of operations. We only offer companies that we can guarantee have no debts or previous activity whatsoever. This way when you start your business you do not need to worry about what previous owner might have done before with the company.

How long does it take to purchase a shelf company?

What do I need to do to purchase a ready-made company?

Are your companies VAT-registered?

Yes, all EU companies offered are VAT-registered. They have all the certificates and registration documents required by given jurisdiction law. This means they are at liberty to commence business activities. Upon request we can also provide non-VAT registered companies for the purpose of VAT exempted business activity.

Are there any restrictions I should be aware of?

None of the busine11ss structures allowed to operate in in the EU have restrictions on foreign shareholders. Please consult with us about other jurisdictions.

Do I need to come to the country?

Not at all. Our acquisition process can be completed entirely remotely. However the the procedure is longer then in case if you travel.
