FAQ

Questions about Company formation

Send us the details of what you need and we'll reply as soon as we can with a clear plan.

Which country should I incorporate in?

It depends on where your customers are, how you get paid and bank, and your tax situation. We explain the differences between the USA, Canada, the UAE and Saudi Arabia in the consultation.

Do I need to travel to set up my company?

Most steps are done remotely. Some, such as the medical test for UAE residency and Emirates ID biometrics, require you in person, and we tell you from the start which steps apply to you.

How long does incorporation take?

It varies by country and by how fast government bodies process applications. We explain in the consultation what applies to your case.

Do you help me open a bank account?

We prepare the documents banks ask for, including the operating agreement and banking resolution, and guide you through the application. The final approval is the bank's decision alone.

Is the registered agent included for US companies?

Yes. US incorporation includes the registered agent and legal address for the first year.
