Profile

Start by identifying whether this is an individual-led setup, a corporate expansion, or an investment structure.

Fields marked with * are required.

Objectives

This section helps distinguish visa-led setups, operating companies, strategic HQs, and asset-holding structures.

Decision Path

The form below changes depending on whether this is primarily an individual setup or a corporate expansion / investment platform.

Individual Path

Corporate / Investment Path

Activities and Market

This section helps identify regulated activities, mainland necessity, trading exposure, and commercial footprint.

Ownership and Operations

These questions narrow down whether the structure should be a simple operating company, a subsidiary, or an investor-friendly holdco or SPV.

Banking and Compliance

Bankability often matters more than the license itself. This section helps surface risk flags and support needs.

Preferences and Strategic Intent

This final section helps distinguish short-term setup needs from long-term strategic structuring goals.

Choose no more than 3.
