Formation Timescale And Complex Structures

Company formation takes around 24 hours from when we have receipt of both fees and scanned copies of your due diligence (proof of address, passports etc.). You will still not be able to trade with your company until you complete client take on with the Maltese service provider (this is just a formality but may take a few days whilst they wait for documents to be received by post). 

In the event that the proposed company is owned by a complex structure (such as having more than three shareholders, or holding via a corporate structure, trust, foundation, insurance policy, foreign nominee or partnership we may charge an additional compliance fee to cover the extra time the lawyers will need to spend reviewing the due diligence.
