Preparing financial statements for Seychelles international business companies. Service offer

Recent amendments to the Seychelles International Business Companies Act have significantly strengthened financial reporting obligations. Since 6 August 2021, all IBCs — including dormant entities — must maintain proper accounting records and, in most cases, prepare simplified financial statements (a financial summary). Only non-large holding companies are exempt from this requirement. Our firm provides comprehensive accounting and reporting services to help companies comply with these new legislative standards efficiently and on time.

The amendments of 6 August 2021 to the Seychelles International Business Companies Act introduced new requirements of keeping accounting records and simplified financial statements (financial summary) and determined the financial year. The requirement to prepare a financial summary applies to all companies (including dormant ones), with the exception of non-large holding companies.

Thus, only non-large holding companies are exempt from the preparation of financial summary.

Preparing financial statements

Since the amended legislation now requires to submit accounting records regardless of the type of company, we are ready to provide our accounting services.

A financial summary to be prepared by all companies, except non-large holding companies, is formed on the basis of accounting records as of a particular date (in this case, as of the reporting date). Our company also helps format financial statements to fit the prescribed form.

The fees for accounting support of a company are charged at hourly rates of USD 100 to USD 300, depending on the qualification of a specialist involved.

The fees for preparing a financial summary of a dormant company are USD 550.
