Setting Up a Company in Gibraltar:
With Us vs Self-Setup

Feature Professional Support Self-Setup
Choosing the Right Structure Clear guidance on private company, public company, or branch options based on business goals. Extra time spent comparing structures with limited clarity on the best fit.
Company Name & Filing Company name review, incorporation details, and Companies House filing steps prepared with clear direction. Name acceptability, forms, and registry requirements must be checked independently.
Local Business Requirements Guidance on registered office, company administration, and business licence needs where applicable. Local address, licence, and administrative requirements must be reviewed separately.
Business Licence Process Support with understanding Office of Fair Trading (OFT) business licence requirements for Gibraltar-based activities. Business licence obligations may be missed or misunderstood before trading starts.
Accounting & Annual Returns Support for accounts, annual returns, statutory records, and required company filings. Filing deadlines and annual requirements must be tracked without structured support.
Bank Account Preparation Corporate documents prepared for business account readiness and compliance review. Bank due diligence, company evidence, and proof-of-business documents must be handled alone.
