Due Diligence Requirements

For providing directorship services

1. the reason why the provision of directorship service is required
   
2. outline of any documentation that we would be expected to sign in our capacity as director
   
3. background information, full names and residential addresses of the beneficial owners
   
4. copies of a government issued identification of the beneficial owners (certified as true copies by a notary public)
   
5. copy of utility bill as proof of address (certified as a true copy by a notary public)
   
6. professional reference (outline pro-forma attached) and reference from a recognized bank for the beneficial owners
   
7. full details of the purposes and intended activities of the companies
   
8. confirmation of who is to administer the companies
   
9. a declaration of indemnity to be signed by the beneficial owners and the director (drafted by us)

It is our firm policy not to allow bearer shares to be issued for companies to which we provide directorship services. If the beneficial owners do not wish to become the shareholders of the company, we can provide a nominee shareholder and would require a declaration of trust and indemnity to be signed by the nominee shareholder and beneficial owners (drafted by us). We do not charge any extra fees for the provision of nominee shareholder if we are also providing directorship services.
