HK & BVI: Information request on company formation & bank account opening

Email from your customer: Name & nationality have been changed due to privacy issue. However, the content is more important. Here how we deal with our customers:

 

Hello Peter,

 

thanks for reaching me! My name is Tomas and I will take care of your case.

 

I will use your email and will implement all answers in for your better perusal (you wrote):

I would like some information regarding your company formation service.
I am a Swedish business owner and I am working on expanding world wide. I
am interested in creating 2 international business companies: One Hong
Kong based, this one will mainly be used to manage patents and related
cases. 

The company is done within 24 hours.

 

Pricing:
0) Hong Kong Government – 300 US$ (for incorporation and business license)
1) Startupr Incorporation – 89 US$
2) Registered address 150 US$
3) Startupr as a Agent/secretary – 150 US$
4) Annual Return and postal – 60 US$ + 55 US$ (gov fees of 25 US$ included)
5) Certified copy of Documents – 250 US$ + 95 US$ ( You will need it in order to open up a bank account in HSBC)
6) Bank Account opening in HSBC 95 US$

 

We have in our team lawyer who is focused on patent as well. He might be of assistance.

The other one a BVI company, for international marketing and
technical consulting.
I would need to use a separate bank account for each company, but for
practicality it would be nice to have those at one reputable bank, like
HSBC. 
This is exactly what we always advice to our clients. To open up a company is really easy however you should think twice where to open up a bank account! My advice is almost always HSBC as you have mentioned. They are based worldwide and have really nice online system – banking, we use it in Startupr as well.

The BVI company might have the bank account in HSBC in Hong Kong as well as the Hong Kong company. It would be done at the same time!

 

Pricing for BVI:

 

0) 350 US$ – Government incorporation fee
1)  89 US$ – Startupr company registration fee
2) 350 US$ – Registered address for one year
3) 395 + 115 US$ – Apostilled bound of incorporation documents + postal
4) 295 US$ – BVI, Mauritius, Malta, Latvia or Seychelles – bank account opening
Total: 1594 US$ ( however you can customize your order)

I would like to know if you can help arrange a setup like this

yes, we do this often

and what
your procedure for opening bank accounts is (does it require a meeting
at the bank, do you prepare all documents, etc). 
The process for you as customer is as follow for both companies (we really take care of everything else):

steps to form the company (HK, BVI) and open bank account are as follow:
0. understanding to your needs – biz model or biz case, your needs
1. filling the order form (attached)
2. checking by startupr
3. mandatory order, invoice & payment
4. incorporation
5. post incorporation process; documents dispatching to your address, etc.

 

we need to issue all documents as (for both companies: HK&BVI):

 

– Cert of Incumbency
– M&A
– Resolution of electing directors
– Resignation of Subscriber’s Rihts
– Cert of Incorporation
– Share certificate
– Certificate of Incumbency

 

Indeed, you will need to come over to HK, it will be much faster and easy for all of us.

My preference would be to have this all arranged as a complete package. 
I hope, I have replied to all of your questions, here is the Skype if you like to contact me any further: tomas.milar


or simply my phone: +852 817 036 29

 

have a great day

Hi Thomas,

 

Thank you for the quick reply!
You've made things much clearer. So I get from this HSBC will have no problem opening an account for a BVI company? It's a shame I would need to be present in person, I am really short on time right now and I was hoping to get the company's started on short term. It's not possible to do the incorporations and bank account opening remotely?

 

Regards,

 

Peter

Startupr.com Customer Testimonial – Kameleon languages limited

My company (www.kameleonlanguages.com) specializes in online language teaching and interactive teaching material.

There are many things that have to be done when you open a new company ; It is amazing to be able to rely on Startupr to manage everything you need to be taken care of on your behalf.
In Tomas Milar, I found someone dedicated, honest, and above all effective.
The pricing for the service is transparent. Unlike the other incorporating companies, you can get all the information you need on Startupr website, you don’t need to send information about yourself before even knowing what the company has to offer.
You just see what you need – and get it done.
I highly recommend.

Startupr.com Customer Testimonial II. – Europasian Trading & Consulting Corporation Ltd

As I was too busy to travel to Hong Kong and look after the whole business registration process of a new company by myself, I decided to go through an incorporation service agency that would handle everything for me. Being in the internet era, this remote solution made sense. But still had I have to find the right and reliable people. What attracted me first about Startupr was its promise to get the incorporation done in a record time with the Hong Kong e-Registry which facilitates the electronic submission of applications. Within 24 hours if wanted. I like efficient and technologically up-to-date services, it’s often a sign that you’re dealing with serious people. I chat online with Tomas Milar who very professionally answered all my questions. I decided to go with him. Well, the truth is that once I filled out all the required documents and sent them back by mail, it took 6 hours to incorporate my Company. I was just amazed !!! My satisfaction was high because I really needed the company to be incorporated very quickly before attending a summit in China. Startupr promised it, and did it. Fees are competitive and the relationship with Startupr doesn’t stop with the incorporation. The staff can assist you with local administrative tasks and Tomas will always be there if you need to expand your business. What more do you need ?

Startupr.com Customer Testimonial II. – MemoCards

MemoCards, SmartApp Development’s debut, is a mobile app designed for foreign language learners.

According to our research, every learner’s principal pain is firstly ranking vocabulary words by frequency of use and singling the necessary words out of the endless vocabulary list and secondly finding an efficient way to learn vocabulary units.

MemoCards provides a complex turnkey solution to this problem:

     5000 Flashcards, each containing one of the most utilized words of the given language, ranked by frequency of use, an audio bite and a fun picture

     Unique review methodology, based on the Spaced Repetition Learning principle; a calendar and a notification system that organize a user’s study process depending on his/her memorization abilities

     Adaptivity.  MemoCards test determines user’s vocabulary level, enabling our program to filter out the flashcard words of which a user possesses prior knowledge.

In spite of App’s rich functionality our strategy is not to substitute a teacher, but to facilitate learning. And our vocabulary database enables users to learn one of the 6 Languages: Spanish, English, French, German, Russian and Italian, which covers over 100 Mil potential users around the world.

MemoCards was successfully launched on App Store in April, 2012 as an iPhone application. In the near future we intend porting MemoCards to iPad and Android devices,  adding  Asian languages and adopting the app for several most popular textbooks.

MemoCards is owned by SmartApp Development Ltd, registered in Hong Kong. The team core of MemoCards is based in Tel Aviv, Israel. There were several reasons to choose such jurisdiction: taxation, acceptance by Apple and Google, common law flexibility and English as a state language.

In November 2011 Mike Tomshinsky, CEO of SmartApp, selected Startupr as a Registered Agent to incorporate the company and support in associated procedures such as bank account opening, audit reporting and future registrations of shareholders’ changes. Since then Sturtupr proved himself as very flexible, responsive and responsible partner.
