Change and Transfer of Your Seychelles IBC to Us
If you are not satisfied with your current provider, you can move your existing Seychelles offshore company to us. From then on we are your contact in the Seychelles and you benefit from all of our services.
Your existing Seychelles offshore company needs a change and transfer of the registered agent and agency, and we take care of the whole process for you.
A transfer of the registered agent of a Seychelles offshore IBC to us is not difficult, because you already provided all the documents when you first formed your company. We only need a copy of the certificate of incorporation, a copy of your passport and a current utility bill.
We also need one simple document, prepared by us and signed by you, stating that you intend to switch to us and make the change.
The name of your offshore company stays the same. The director, the memorandum, the date of incorporation and everything else also stay the same. Only if you wish, we can make a change at the same time, for example a change of director.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does my company name change when I transfer to you?
No. The name of your offshore company stays the same, and so do the director, the memorandum, the date of incorporation and all other details.
How long does the change take?
The transfer is usually completed within 5 to 30 days and is confirmed by the register.
Can I change the director at the same time?
Yes. If you wish, we can carry out other changes together with the transfer, for example a change of director.
What documents do I need to send?
A copy of the certificate of incorporation, a copy of your passport, a current utility bill, and the simple transfer document that we prepare for you to sign.
How will I receive the final documents?
All documents are delivered by DHL Express courier, within the EU and worldwide, just as with a new company formation.
Changing to us is easier than you think
Your company already exists, so nothing has to be formed again. The name, the IBC number, the date of incorporation, the directors and the shareholders stay exactly as they are. Only the registered agent and the registered office change.
Clients come to us when their current agent is no longer reachable, when renewals and certificates take weeks, or when they simply want all services from one place in the Seychelles.

What our clients say 1 reviews · 5.0 ★

I had nothing but trouble with my previous agent and his company. The start-up was ok, but after that he was mostly unavailable or charged fees that were simply unfair and overpriced. I have to admit that the change to Offshore Seychelles was not easy for me either, because it was also very expensive and you don't know whether the service you need will be just as unreachable afterwards and at what cost.

After 2 years, however, I have to give them a 5-star recommendation. Always, really always available. Fair and transparent billing, everything is discussed in advance. That's what makes it fun!
