SHELF COMPANY

What Does a Shelf Company Mean?

A shelf company, as the name suggests, is one that is ‘bought off the shelf’ or is readymade. It is a legally incorporated company but has not engaged in any trading activity. Shelf companies are an efficient way of getting a company up and running in as quick as 24 hours. It typically takes around 3 to 5 working days to get a company incorporated and acquire a company number. However, if you wish to get a company number instantly, it is best to go for a shelf company.

What are the Benefits of Choosing a Shelf Company?

There are several benefits to choosing a shelf company, these include the following:

• Quicker and reliable – This is one of the primary reasons of choosing a shelf company. A shelf company enables you to save time that would have been spent in applying for a company registration from scratch. Since a shelf company is already registered with the CRO, only changing the details of the directors / officials and shareholders can get the job done. It is also a reliable option since the shelf companies are formed by professionals who take care of the completeness and accuracy of its compliance with the rules and regulations.
• Helps boost entity’s credibility and client confidence – Showing that your company has a longer history of existence helps to establish trustworthiness and thereby enables stronger business relationships with your customers, suppliers and bankers.
• Gaining new contracts – It can be difficult to win contracts if the company has recently been registered. Some industries / institutions might require that a company has been in existence for a certain period of time before they could bid for any contracts. A shelf company is pre-registered with CRO and enables you to bid on the contracts when you need to.
• Easy approval for corporate banking – It is much quicker to approach banks for setting up business bank account where the company can show that it is an aged one, in contrast to a newly registered company.
