Nominee Services
Nominee services is where a person is appointed as director, secretary or shareholder having no discretion over their actions; they can only act in accordance with instructions from the beneficial owner.
A nominee service will allow you to keep the identity of the director and the secretary off public records whereas the nominee’s details will be held on public record and viewable by anyone who wishes to do so at the Companies Registrar.
We provide Nominee services and will act on your behalf, without the need for you to physically be present in Cyprus.
This service includes the signing of documents in the capacity of director or secretary only upon written instruction of the Beneficial owner. It is important to understand that our role is purely an administrative one in name and only for the purposes of the Companies Registrar.
The Companies’ Law requires that every company has at least one director that can be a person or a legal entity. Even if not mandatory, it is advisable that at least one of the directors is a Cyprus Resident or Cyprus company for taxation purposes.
It is a requirement of the Law that a company should have a registered office in Cyprus, that can be used as the business address of the company.
The registered office address is the place where official documents will be served to the company.
We are required to perform checks to confirm the identity of all the company’s beneficial owners.
You should expect us requesting certified copies of the following documents, also needed for bank account opening purposes:
- Passport
- CV
- Current utility bill (electricity or water bill) indicating his residential address (not older than 6 months, in Greek or English language).
