Création d'une société en Belize

Important : le droit d'un non-résident de détenir la société ne lui confère pas automatiquement le droit de vivre, de travailler ou de la gérer depuis ce pays. L'immigration, le permis de travail, la substance, le lieu de direction effective et la résidence fiscale sont évalués séparément.

• —An owner-managed international service or trading business with genuine contracts, counterparties and tax analysis.
• —A closely held holding or joint-venture structure with clear ownership/control and licensed RA support.
• —A partnership or specialist structure after reviewing legal, regulatory and tax treatment.

• —A private company limited by shares, the standard commercial form under the Belize Companies Act 2022.
• —A company limited by guarantee, with or without shares, and an unlimited company, membership or specialist alternatives.
• —A Limited Liability Partnership (LLP), a separate partnership vehicle for professional, joint-venture or investment arrangements.
• —Foreign-company registration for an existing overseas legal entity operating in Belize.
• —Segregated Portfolio, Special Purpose and Private Trust Companies, specialist forms subject to separate eligibility/regulatory review.

• —Incorporation and annual filings are made through the Belize Online Business Registry System (OBRS).
• —Where a non-Belizean participates in the structure, BCCAR requires the use of a licensed Registered Agent.
• —The company maintains a registered office/agent and constitutional/statutory records as required by its form and the Companies Act.
• —The BO is traced to a natural person, generally based on ownership above 25% or other effective control; information must remain current.
• —Financial services, securities, insurance, trust, virtual assets and other regulated activity requires FSC/licensing review.

• —A passport or other acceptable ID for every founder, director, manager, signatory and ultimate beneficial owner (UBO).
• —Proof of residential address and tax residence; the registrar, agent, bank or other reviewer sets the document-validity period.
• —A transparent ownership chart through to natural persons and, for a corporate participant, registry documents, good standing and authorised resolutions.
• —A description of the product, markets, counterparties, expected turnover, source of funds and source of wealth, supported by evidence.
• —Name-reservation data, entity type, registered agent/office, capital or guarantee, directors/managers and ownership allocation.
• —The Memorandum and Articles or LLP agreement, consents, initial resolutions and statutory registers.
• —For a corporate owner, certified formation, incumbency/good standing and board authority; the RA confirms apostille/translation requirements.

1. 01Select a company, LLP, foreign registration or specialist form and review tax/licensing consequences.
2. 02A foreign participant selects an FSC-licensed Registered Agent and completes its independent KYC/AML.
3. 03Agree the name, constitutional terms, roles, capital/interests and BOs; the RA files through OBRS.
4. 04After incorporation, obtain the corporate file and establish registers, accounting records, the annual return and BO updates.
5. 05Tax, licensing and banking workstreams begin according to operations; a bank account is not an OBRS service.

• —Belize incorporation does not mean tax exemption: domestic/international activity, income source, residence, licensing and current tax rules require separate analysis.
• —Local business may create business/income tax, GST, payroll, social-security and municipal/licensing duties.
• —Foreign management and ownership may create tax residence, CFC or reporting in another country notwithstanding Belize registration.

Aperçu général, sans constituer un conseil fiscal ou juridique personnalisé. Les règles sont revérifiées avant le dépôt.

• —A local or foreign bank independently reviews BOs, activity, geography, source of funds/wealth, tax residence and the expected transaction pattern.
• —The FSC expressly notes that a bank performs its own due diligence and independently approves or rejects the client.
• —The RA can prepare a certified corporate pack, but its onboarding is not bank pre-approval.

• —The annual return is filed through OBRS and maintains the company's active/good-standing status.
• —The government/registry fee and renewal of the licensed Registered Agent/registered office.
• —BOs, directors/managers, members/shareholders and registered details are updated when changes occur.
• —Accounting records, tax returns, licensing/economic-substance and payroll filings apply according to activity/status.

• —An attempt by a foreign participant to file directly instead of using the required Registered Agent follows the wrong filing route.
• —An international label does not remove annual-return, BO, records, tax or economic-substance duties.
• —Incorporation does not conceal ownership or disapply AML/KYC. Registered agents, registries, tax authorities and financial institutions may obtain and verify UBO information.
• —The place of incorporation does not automatically determine tax residence. Effective management, permanent establishment, CFC, withholding and the owners' personal residence require separate analysis.
• —Company registration does not grant a regulated-activity licence, immigration status or a bank account.

• —Verification of the Belize FSC licence, coordination of the Registered Agent/OBRS and preparation of annual-return/BO setup.
• —Comparison of entity forms, ownership structure, tax links and substance requirements before filing.
• —Coordination of the registered agent, notary or local representative, translations, apostille and the complete corporate file.
• —Preparation of a bank-ready KYB data room and responses to legitimate compliance requests; approval and timing remain with the bank or EMI.
• —Accountant hand-off and creation of an annual-return, BO, tax, licence and substance compliance calendar.
