Anguilla Companies

 

Anguilla has three types of companies:

  • The Ordinary Company
  • The International Business Company
  • The Limited Liability Company

Companies must be incorporated through a local agent all of whom, are licensed under the new Company Management Ordinance and regulated by the Inspector of Company Managers. The Government and private sector are working closely together to establish best practice guidelines for company managers. These are designed to ensure that through the application of due diligence procedures Anguilla attracts the best business and maintains its reputation.

 

The Ordinary Company

The ordinary company, which can be used both within Anguilla and as an offshore vehicle, is governed by the new Companies Ordinance.
The Ordinance contains many attractive features:

  • Companies may be incorporated by one incorporator and have one director.
  • Companies may be limited by shares, by guarantee or by both shares and guarantee.
  • Companies may acquire, purchase or own their own shares.
  • Filing formalities have been simplified and streamlined
  • Companies may continue in or out of Anguilla.
  • A special class of Specific Private Companies that are exempted from some record keeping and accounting requirements


The International Business Company

The International Business Company is based on the traditional model and provides for the easy incorporation and subsequent administration of a flexible and cost effective corporation.
Companies incorporated in any other jurisdiction may be continued in Anguilla as an IBC and an Anguilla IBC can, where the laws of another jurisdiction allow it re-domicile to such a jurisdiction.


The Limited Liability Company

Anguilla is one of the few jurisdictions to have an Act or Ordinance dealing specifically with limited liability companies. Although the LLC Ordinance has its roots in the original Wyoming legislation, Anguillian LLCs have developed the concept much further.
An Anguillian LLC can readily be structured so that it possesses the following characteristics (a) continuity of life, (b) limited liability, (c) centralized management and (d) free transferability of interests. As such the LLC will be treated as a partnership. Properly structured, therefore, an Anguillian LLC will provide its members with limited liability, but provide the advantages of income and losses passing through to the members.
