A bank account for your Seychelles IBC

Your IBC can open accounts with banks and payment institutions in many countries. What decides is not the country of the company but a clean file: who owns it, what it does and where the money comes from.

Where IBCs bank today

Banks in the Seychelles do not open accounts for Seychelles IBCs, so your company banks abroad. Most of our clients use electronic money and payment institutions with an IBAN and cards, or banks in Europe and Asia that work with international companies.

Be careful with offers that sell a company together with a guaranteed bank account. They are usually expensive, the account often comes from a bank that nobody else wants, and in the end you still have to go through the full verification yourself.

What banks ask for

  • Certificate of Incorporation, Memorandum and Articles, with apostille
  • Register of directors, members and beneficial owners or a Certificate of Incumbency
  • Certificate of Good Standing, if the company is older than a few months
  • Passport and proof of address of the director and the beneficial owner
  • A short description of the business, the expected turnover and the countries involved
  • A website, contracts or invoices that show the business is real

What helps

  • 1

    A clear business description

    Banks open accounts for businesses they understand. Two clear pages on what you do, for whom and with which money flows help more than anything else.

  • 2

    Current certificates

    A fresh Certificate of Incumbency and Certificate of Good Standing with apostille answer most questions of the compliance team at once.

Since 2015, there has been no offshore bank in Seychelles that has a Offshore Bank account for the established Seychelles offshore company offers. Here you need to rethink.

If you read offers on the net like: "offshore company + offshore bank account", then better hands off these offers. Mostly - no always - it is overpriced and serves only as bait.
Here they want to try to make the foundation "palatable" and sell it to you as a simple, but overpriced complete package.

That means, for the pure mediation of a possible bank one must pay then either an optional fee of 300.00 up to 1,000.00 € to the establishment agencies, or it is banks, which nobody else wants, or far away and uncertain. On top of that, they are banks that often require a high cash deposit as a minimum deposit/minimum balance to open the offshore bank account.

The actual service of these startup agencies is then limited to building a bridge to the bank, possibly sending initial bank documents to you in advance and nothing more. Finally and ultimately, you will have to do most of the work yourself, possibly appear in person at the bank or be activated in a video review.

But don't worry, unlike years ago, today there is a new generation of banks, so-called fintech banks. Specializing in online banking including VISA and/or Mastercard prepaid cards. A bank account for a Seychelles Offshore Company is comparatively simple. Because unlike in the past, you can legitimize yourself via video apps, Skype, etc. and no longer even have to appear in person at the bank.
