Offshore Foundation Procedures
If
you are convinced about the Offshore Panama Foundations, please
fill the order form or contact us and continue. Read the simple
procedures below to establish a Panama Offshore Foundation:
Personal Information: Complete the online application
with your personal information.
Indicate what type of entity(s) you want: Indicate
whether you want a new Offshore Panama Foundation or a Panama shelf
Foundation. If you choose to purchase a shelf Foundation, then simply
indicate that you want a shelf Foundation. Please indicate how many
Foundations you want of each type.
Selecting the Name(s): On the online application,
you should indicate three name choices for each Offshore Panama
Foundation. Panama Private Interest Foundations names can be in
any language and must include the word "Foundation" within
the name (in any language) in Spanish
spelling: Fundación. In English spelling: Foundation. For
example, names for Panama Foundations could be: "Phillips Foundation",
"Ocean Valley Foundation", "International Lands Foundation",
or "Latinoamerican Child Protection Foundation".
We will
check to see if the names you selected are available in the Panamanian
Public Registry. We can have this done within a few hours. The first
available name selections will be incorporated as soon as we have
received payment.
Foundation Council (Directors): On the order form,
you should indicate who you want to appoint as council members (directors)
of your Foundation(s). The council members can be either individuals
or entities. If the council members are individuals, the law requires
3 council members (President, Secretary and Treasurer). If the council
members are entities, the law only requires one council member.
If our client is appointed as council member on the Offshore Panama
Foundation, then his/her name is publicly known as council member
since the council members names and identifications must be presented
in the public registry when the Offshore Panama Foundation is formed.
The only documentation on public record is the Foundation Charter
(or articles) of incorporation and the names and addresses of the
council members and Registered Agent.
We offer
our clients the optional service of using our "Nominee Council"
for their Panama Private Interest Foundation(s). For purposes of
confidentiality, most of our clients prefer that we provide a nominee
council for their Offshore Panama Foundations. There is no additional
fee for the use of our nominee council. When we appoint a nominee
council for the entities that we establish for our clients, we always
provide our clients with pre-signed, undated letters of resignation
from the directors so that our client can replace the council/directors
at any time. If
the clients prefer to appoint their own council, they simply complete
our online application with the names of the council members that
they wish to use (they also must send us a photocopy of their council
members passports).
Beneficiaries: The Beneficiaries of the Panama Offshore
Foundation need not to be known by us when registering the Foundation.
When you receive the Offshore Foundation documents, you will appoint
the Protector, by signing the Private Protectorate Document. The
Protector will need to write a Letter of Wishes, indicating who
the beneficiaries of the Foundation are.
Payment: On the online application, you should indicate
your preferred method of payment. Payment can be made by Western
Union. After submitting the online application, you will be contacted
by our service staff and will be provided with payment instructions.
Time Frame: A new Panama Offshore Foundation can
be established within 3 to 5 business days. Shelf foundations are
also available if you need a Foundation immediately. Simply notify
us on the online order form if you prefer a shelf name and we will
provide one for you. Panama Shelf Foundations are the same, except
that they have already been incorporated and are ready to engage
in business immediately if you are in a rush to do something very
quickly.
