The right structure, in the right country.
An OFM business run through a personal account, or through a company set up in a hurry, always gets stuck: at the bank, with the tax office, or when you want to sell. Choose the form and the country first, rather than undo everything later.
Three situations we see every week.
Mixed income, forgotten VAT or sales tax, no separation: the first inquiry reclassifies, the first bank closes.
An offshore company with no substance, a director who never left home: the tax office brings it back, with penalties.
Without a holding, every sale, every new partner, every reinvestment is taxed at full rate.
A questionnaire, a call, a deliverable, follow-up.
Where you and your team live, what you take in and in which currency, your partners, and what you want in three years: sell, raise, relocate or simply sleep well.
We rule out the structures that do not hold and give you the form, the country, and the cost of setting up and running it. Written quote within 24 hours.
Two to four pages justifying each choice: form, country, capital, holding, flows, bank, accountant. Enough to convince a partner or a banker.
Set up with our local partners. Then a check-in at each milestone: first creator, first employee, first dividend.
The scope, topic by topic.
Quick and cheap to set up, easy for platforms and banks to read. Useful when the business or the team is really in the UK; a trap when the director lives elsewhere.
Wyoming, Delaware or Florida LLCs are everywhere on social media and suit some profiles, not all. For US creators, the LLC or S-Corp election depends on income level.
FZCO in Dubai, Sp. z o.o. in Poland, Cypriot or Maltese companies: set up with our local partners, bank and accountant included, when the owner or the business is really there.
For a creator, operating in your own name is often enough up to a certain income; beyond that, a company changes tax, liability protection and credibility with banks.
A holding above the operating company to prepare a sale, bring in a partner or move dividends up. Useful from a certain level, costly before.
Who invoices whom, in which currency, with which tax, and how money moves between platform, agency, creator, chatters and partners. The chart the bank asks for and the tax office rebuilds.
Two businesses, one service.
- Operating company and holding, at home or abroad
- Structuring before a fundraise, a partnership or a sale
- A flow chart banks and tax offices can follow
- Subsidiary in Dubai, Malta, Cyprus or Poland when justified
- Sole trader or company: the right time to switch
- Company formation, articles, registration
- A business bank account that accepts your income
- A structure that fits a relocation
