Is the first consultation free of charge?Yes, the first consultation is always free of charge and is aimed at checking whether your needs can be taken care of. If you do not intend to purchase anything, there will be no charge.

I would like to better understand how the office works.The office will be divided into two: The Registered Office: the one where you will receive both administrative and operational correspondence. All correspondence will be scanned and entered into an App where it will be available for viewing. The Operational Office: the various tax authorities are increasingly fighting shell companies. Having a company that does not have at least one desk with a nameplate means having a short life. The closing ratio of companies that do not comply with this requirement is increasingly becoming higher. The desk at the fiduciary or lawyer's is less and less accepted. That is why Konfido provides real offices that comply with the new requirements of the tax authorities. Obviously the above does not apply for companies requiring financial licences or similar. In this case an own office with own staff is mandatory.

I do not see any online pricing. How much does it generally cost to incorporate a company with you?Companies that advertise prices online have the sole purpose of attracting the customers. Konfido provides free consultation to understand its customers' needs and may even advise against setting up a company.

This is the reason why, before giving you a quotation, we want to understand your needs.

Is the Current Account Guaranteed? How do you guarantee it?After the initial consultation, we share the needs and operations with the financial institution providing the current account in order to obtain an approval in principle. Only after we are confident that the account will be opened do we start the set-up. In case there are any problems we will handle it all before you have spent any money.
