Local trading companies
If you wish to incorporate a Guernsey company you must use a Corporate Services Provider (CSP). The CSPs on this page provide incorporation services to local trading companies.
Once the company has been incorporated, it can be handed over to you to carry on the administration. This includes:
- - Making necessary filings with the Registry (for more information see here)
- - Maintaining and updating the company's records at the registered office (for more information see here)
- - Ensuring that the company has a Resident Agent - this can be either a Guernsey resident director of the company or a Corporate Service Provider (who is licenced by the GFSC).
The Registry has put together a guidance note for directors of newly incorporated companies to help clarify the requirements of the Companies Law which is available to download here.
Other CSPs provide services to other business areas. An A-Z list of CSPs (including business area) can be found here.
Please note: While the Guernsey Registry is not able to recommend or endorse any particular CSP, all those listed in the directory are fiduciary licence holders and form part of a well regulated sector.
