The Republic of Palau has a tightly clustered archipelago of about 300 islands. It is an independent country that has signed the Compact of Free Association with the United States. This fact makes the idea of buying a company in Palau more attractive. In addition, the United States provides the Republic with economic aid and access to federal services and programs, permits citizens to reside in U.S. states and territories, and assumes responsibility for defense and security. A favorable tax regime is the main reason foreign investors are interested in establishing a business in Ngerulmud or any other city in Palau.

Advantages of registering a company

  • intensive growth of the economy;
  • absence of foreign exchange controls;
  • access to the large U.S. market.

Main forms of legal presence and doing business

  • limited liability company (LLC);
  • private company.

Registration procedure

  • Obtain permission for foreign investments;
  • Deposit the authorized capital into a bank account;
  • Check the uniqueness of the chosen company name in the Commercial Register;
  • Register the company with the Corporate Registrar in Palau;
  • Obtain an Employer Identification Number (EIN);
  • Register with the social security system;
  • Open a corporate bank account;
  • Obtain licenses and permits for conducting business.

Legislation and regulatory environment

The Foreign Investment Law is the primary legal act regulating non-resident entrepreneurs' activity in the country. According to this law, investors can open a firm in Palau only after obtaining the appropriate Certificate. The conditions for its issuance are:

  • Making capital investments of at least $500,000;
  • Employment of at least 20% of the total number of citizens of the Republic.

If these requirements are met, foreign investments will be evaluated according to economic necessity, usefulness, and impact on the social and cultural sphere.

  • corporate tax - 12% (for income over $50,000);
  • PIT - 6% to 12% (depending on income level);
  • VAT - 10%;

Collaborated with the company for 3 years. I can’t say that everything was smooth from the point of view of organizing the work; there was confusion in the structure of the work, etc. But I’ll specifically highlight employee Lyubov Malinowski, she very diligently corrected all errors and was in touch at the right time, her help was significant in all processes and she approached all issues precisely. I would like to separately highlight the moment when she solved the problem at her own expense, which speaks of the person’s professionalism and increased responsibility.

As a software development crew at FewMoreTaps OÜ, we've had the pleasure of working with Prifinance on some key financial moves.First of all, navigating the world of corporate banking and finance can be a maze, but Prifinance made it feel like a walk in the park. They helped us set up a corporate bank account without the hassle of jumping on a plane or drowning in paperwork. Everything was done remotely, smoothly and securely.But that's not all. We had a slightly time-sensitive situation when it came to changing the beneficiary details on our account. Prifinance stepped up to the plate and handled everything quickly and professionally.It's not just about getting the job done. It's about how Prifinance does it. They're all about making complex financial matters simple and accessible for companies like ours. Plus, their team, especially Liubov Malinowski, has been nothing short of fantastic to work with - professional, timely and always on the ball.In short, FewMoreTaps OÜ wholeheartedly endorses Prifinance OÜ. Whether it's opening bank accounts remotely or navigating the financial legalities of running an international business, these guys have got your back. A big thank you to the entire Prifinance team for their first class support and expertise.Here's to more collaborations in the future!Best,Kiryl Nest

Opening an account with Prifinance in a Swiss bank was such an easy and quick process that I was shocked. It all started with the first call, where I received detailed guidance on the required documents and the entire procedure.One of the key highlights was their attention to detail. As someone who usually gets tangled up in paperwork, I was pleasantly surprised when they sent me all the documents and instructions clearly and neatly. No misunderstandings!Honestly, I expected opening a Swiss bank account to be complex and time-consuming, but thanks to Prifinance, I felt like a professional financial expert. Thank you for making this process so easy and enjoyable!
