Understanding Our Client’s Challenge
We were approached by a company engaged in investment activities. The company had a complex history. It was initially registered in Spain, then redomiciled to Cyprus, and now sought to relocate to Seychelles. The primary goal was to preserve its existing assets and maintain its operational bank accounts.
The company faced a significant challenge. With a complex structure and numerous structural changes—including 42 share transfers—the redomiciliation process was anything but straightforward. The urgency was evident. They needed a seamless transition to safeguard their assets and continue their operations without interruption.
We recognised the importance of this task. Preserving the company’s assets and bank accounts was critical for their ongoing investment activities. Our mission was to facilitate a smooth redomiciliation to Seychelles, ensuring continuity and compliance at every step.
Delving into the Complexity
Understanding the intricacies of the client’s corporate structure was our first priority. The company had undergone multiple transformations, which added layers of complexity to the redomiciliation process. Each structural change had to be meticulously documented and analysed.
We began by thoroughly reviewing all existing documentation. This included records from the company’s time in Spain and Cyprus, as well as detailed accounts of every share transfer. Our team scrutinised each document to build a comprehensive picture of the company’s history.
The complexity of 42 share transfers meant there was no room for error. We needed to ensure that all historical changes were correctly reflected in the redomiciliation process. This thorough understanding was essential to meet regulatory requirements in Seychelles.
Crafting a Strategic Solution
With a clear understanding of the company’s background, we formulated a strategic plan. Our approach was tailored to address the specific challenges posed by the client’s intricate corporate structure. We aimed for a solution that was both efficient and compliant.
First, we identified all the necessary documents required for redomiciliation. We requested proof of the company’s good standing to meet Seychelles’ regulatory demands. Ensuring the company’s compliance status was crucial for a successful transition.
Next, we planned the steps to register the company in Seychelles. This involved coordinating with local authorities and aligning the company’s registration details. Our goal was to mirror the company’s existing identity while complying with Seychelles’ legal framework.
Executing the redomiciliation required careful coordination. We registered a new company in Seychelles with a name identical to the client’s existing one. This helped in maintaining brand continuity and avoiding confusion with stakeholders.
We obtained the Certificate of Continuation, a vital document confirming the company’s redomiciliation to Seychelles. This certificate was crucial for legal recognition and operational continuity.
Simultaneously, we guided the client through the deregistration process in Cyprus. The client provided us with all the necessary confirmation documents. Coordinating deregistration ensured there were no overlaps or legal discrepancies between jurisdictions.

The entire process was completed within three weeks. This efficient turnaround was a testament to our team’s expertise and dedication. The client successfully redomiciled to Seychelles, preserving all assets and maintaining operational bank accounts.
