FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to frequently asked questions on the usage of a nominee director and/or nominee shareholder for Marshall Islands IBC formation and ongoing management

Are nominee director and nominee shareholder services legal in the Marshall Islands?

Yes, nominee director and nominee shareholder services are legal and widely used for Marshall Islands IBCs. Nominee directors and shareholders act as placeholders, shielding the identities of the true beneficial owners (UBOs) from public records. This can be particularly advantageous for individuals or businesses seeking to maintain a degree of privacy in their financial affairsNominee directors, with their expertise in Marshall Islands corporate law and regulations, can ensure your IBC adheres to all legal requirements. This can be especially helpful for foreign business owners unfamiliar with the jurisdiction's specific regulations.Nominee services can streamline company formation and ongoing administrative tasks, particularly if the beneficial owners are located outside the Marshall Islands.It's important to note that while nominee arrangements offer privacy, Marshall Islands law requires following Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations. This means nominee service providers must conduct thorough due diligence on beneficial owners to prevent their services from being misused for illegal activities.

Are nominee arrangements disclosed to authorities in the Marshall Islands?

Although nominee directors and shareholders appear on public records, the identities of the beneficial owners are not typically disclosed. However, nominee service providers are required to maintain a register of beneficial ownership information. This register, containing details of the true owners, must be made available to authorized authorities upon request, ensuring transparency and compliance with AML/KYC regulations.

Can I change or remove a nominee director or shareholder in the Marshall Islands?

Yes, you can generally change or remove a nominee director or shareholder for your Marshall Islands IBC. The process typically involves following the procedures outlined in the company's articles of association and the nominee service agreement. You'll need to provide the nominee service provider with written instructions and complete any necessary paperwork to ensure a smooth transition.

Do nominees have any control over my Marshall Islands IBC?

No, nominee directors and shareholders do not have any actual control over the company's assets or operations. They serve in a fiduciary capacity, acting according to the instructions provided by the beneficial owners. Nominee agreements clearly define the roles and responsibilities of the nominees, ensuring they act in the best interests of the company and its true owners.

To clarify again, nominees cannot act as ultimate beneficial owners (UBOs) and Vepapu does not offer such arrangements.

How do nominee services affect taxation for Marshall Islands IBCs?

Nominee services themselves don't directly impact the taxation of Marshall Islands IBCs. The Marshall Islands offer significant tax benefits, including exemption from corporate income tax, capital gains tax, and withholding tax (for non-resident shareholders and directors). However, the tax implications for a company ultimately depend on its residency status, the source of its income, and the tax laws of the jurisdictions where it conducts business and where the beneficial owners reside.

Do nominee directors or nominee shareholders have access to Marshellese IBC funds or assets?

No, nominee directors and shareholders typically do not have access to company funds. Their role is limited to specific administrative functions, such as signing official documents or attending board meetings, as directed by the beneficial owners. Nominee service agreements clearly define the limitations of their access to company finances.

Can I get a nominee arrangement for any type of business?

Nominee services are generally not offered for companies involved in high-risk activities or those potentially associated with money laundering, tax evasion, or other illegal purposes.
