Eligibility and requirements
The appropriate route is confirmed after reviewing the foreign company's documents or the Premium Residency holder's eligibility, activity, ownership and authorized representative. Formation requests are accepted after investor and activity eligibility checks. The client supplies documents, authorizations and an eligible address, and completes signing or attendance when required by the authority.
Delivery and follow-up
The delivery schedule is set after document review. Follow-up on observations on the original application is included; authority delays alone do not incur additional service fees. Changes to activity or ownership after work begins, or a separate appeal against rejection, require a new scope and price approved by the client.
