What are off the shelf companies

While offshore jurisdictions can provide many financial advantages for corporations, in many instances the benefits are not valid until the company has been in existence for some time.

To that end, an individual, entrepreneur or investor can purchase a company that, in public documents, has an established history in that jurisdiction. These are called “shelf” companies, as the buyer chooses from a list of preexisting company names - just as one would choose a product from the shelves of a store.

OBI can offer you a full range of company names, incorporation dates and jurisdictions that are sure to suit your needs. For a full name, date and price list of our offshore shelf companies, please contact us today.
