Cayman Islands Company Registration
Wise Choice for Your Business
Open a Cayman Islands company
Start an offshore company
Background & Strengths
* Internationally recognised tax-neutral jurisdiction—no corporate, income, capital-gains, or withholding taxes.
* Sophisticated ecosystem: world-class banks, law firms, fund administrators, and stock exchange (CSX).
* Multiple entity choices: Exempted Company (EC), Limited Liability Company (LLC), Segregated Portfolio Company (SPC), Special Economic Zone Company (SEZCo) .
* Exempted Companies can obtain a 20-year renewable tax-exemption certificate and are statutorily restricted from local trading—ideal for offshore funds, SPVs, and joint ventures.
* Rapid incorporation (3–5 days) and minimal ongoing formalities—no annual general meetings or public filing of shareholder registers for EC/LLC .
Key Compliance Notes for Overseas Founders
* Must engage a Cayman-licensed registered office & resident registered agent.
* Exempted Companies barred from doing business with Cayman residents without special license.
* Economic Substance Act applies to entities carrying on “Relevant Activities”; detailed ES notifications and annual returns required.
* Directors & officers must satisfy enhanced KYC/AML checks; ultimate beneficial ownership information is filed (not public) and exchanged under CRS/FATCA.
* If listing or fundraising is planned, early coordination with Cayman counsel on prospectus rules and fund-regulation (e.g., Private Funds Act, Mutual Funds Act) is critical.
