Country overview

About Nevis

Nevis is an island in the Leeward Islands of the Caribbean and forms a federation with Saint Kitts. Charlestown is the capital of Nevis. About 12,000 people live on Nevis. English is the official language. The currency is the East Caribbean dollar (XCD).

A Nevis LLC is used when that vehicle is required for holding. The Federation of St Kitts and Nevis is an independent Commonwealth state. Charlestown is a small registered-agent centre. The LLC is a legal entity under Nevis law. We form it because that legal home is required.

Brikseka forms Nevis LLCs. Incorporation is remote, typically one to five days, through a registered agent. No visit is required. No local director is required for a standard LLC.

We then advise on banking with the limits stated plainly. Stripe and PayPal are not available on a Nevis company. Nevis is not a merchant-account jurisdiction. Approvals for any account are decided by the providers. Forming a company is not a residence permit.

  • Company formation

    We form a Nevis LLC remotely through a registered agent in Charlestown. Typical registry time is one to five days.

  • Federation of St Kitts and Nevis

    Nevis is the smaller island of the federation. Charlestown is the capital; the East Caribbean dollar is the currency.

  • Holding vehicle

    We form the legal entity where a Nevis LLC is required. Stripe and PayPal are not available on this company.

  • Tax setting

    A Nevis LLC that does not carry on business in the Federation is typically not charged to local corporate income tax; an annual information return still applies. We confirm the live position before you proceed.

How we work

From briefing to a registered company

  1. Briefing

    We review your business, the right entity for this country, costs, and whether a visit is likely.

  2. Company formation

    Local counsel, notary where required, and the commercial register. We coordinate the documents through to a registered company.

  3. Banking and payments

    After the company exists, we prepare applications for a business account and payment gateways.

  4. After incorporation

    Statutory records, a named contact, and introductions to accounting so the company can operate.

After the company exists
