Benefits of a Pre-Established Corporation:
By owning a pre-established corporate entity (also known as a “shelf company”), you are able to take advantage of the following benefits:
Caveat Regarding Shelf Corporations in General
We recommend caution in that if a shelf corporation has done business in the past, then it may contain unwanted liabilities. If a shelf corporation has done business in the past and you purchase it, you also assume all past liabilities of that company. So if the company experienced any lawsuits from the past that are not resolved, these legal liabilities may still remain with the corporation. Thus, it is critically important that the shelf corporation does not contain any past liabilities.
For the most part, this can be assured by looking into the history of the corporation and ensuring that the extent of its business activities was limited or non-existent except for the application of an Employer Identification Number and the formation of a bank account and the bank account indicates no exterior activity.
Shelf corporations can be a great option if the proper due diligence is taken. We supply our corporations with a guarantee of having no assets or liabilities and never having conducted business. A pre-established company is a fast way of getting a business up and running. We can appoint the new directors immediately.
Nominee Service
A nominee is not really needed, in most cases, with a Wyoming company or corporation. However, if you feel that you have a need in this area, we can introduce an attorney-at-law who would be able to establish an attorney client privilege relationship and provide nominee services.

We offer Virtual Office Services.
Why don't you offer Pre-established Corporations in the most popular states, such as Nevada and Delaware?
The reasons we do not use these 3 States are as follows:

- Delaware: High State Corporate Tax Rate – Last seen at 8.7%! (However, if you are a relatively large company looking to Go Public, investment bankers frequently choose Delaware.)
