You can register non resident / offshore and the tax rate is 0%
Didn't know that, thanks!
I second that. There are ways how this easely can be done. We are a few here testing different payment service providers i.e. PP,
2co,
Skrill etc. just to proof the opposite for the many romours out there, that it is impossible to open an account with these processors for your
offshore company.
I asked my lawyer and he told me that I will need to open a real office in HK to be able to get HK
bank account. I've read lots of stories on local forums about closed HK bank accounts in the past few years. My country is famous for money laundering, probably this is the reason.
Don't know, but for some reason
2co support told me that my physical location is essential. I've sent them several messages today and the only solution is a bank account in my country:

Thanks for the reply! You will be required to provide proof of address for the physical location in which you operate your online business. If you do not have a physical presence in the
Seychelles, you will not be able to utilize a Seychelle bank account. If you do not have a verifiable physical presence in
Hong Kong you will not be able to utilize a
Hong Kong bank account. If you are physically located in [my country], you will need to utilize a [my country] bank account. You may "register" your account in any country you wish, this has no bearing on where your bank account should be located. Again, if you are located in [my country] you will need to utilize a [my country] bank account.

Again, as we have stated, if you are not able to provide proof of address in the form of a utility bill or rental/mortgage agreement for the address you provide on the application and the bank account is not located in the the same country as that address we will not activate your account. If you are located in [my country] and operate your online business from [my country], you must have a [my country] bank account. 2Checkout is not concerned with where your business is registered and will not accept a Virtual Address. We go to great lengths to verify your actual physical location, you will not be able to circumvent this verification.
Any advice would be appreciated.
