Please see my comments below:


For this Kind of company I need 200 000 EUR.


As soon as you handled 3 parties funds the required share capital increase to EUR 1 million


Your fees is 20 000 EUR


This is not a static fee, you will expect a fee in the range of EUR 20.000 to 29.000 depending on the time used, out of experience we charge in average EUR 28.000 for our services including the preparation and submission of all legal documents, operations manual etc.


How much the CyCec fees?


It is about EUR 3000 - 5000 depending on if everything is as expected by them once we submit the application and they come and review the office, again out of experience, this will normally not exceed the EUR 3.000


What is the minimum requirements for the company to apply for license (Reception and transmition and Execution)


What are the requirements for this 3 members?



For example can I be one of this member?



Do you provide bank accounts for CIF?



If yes, what bank and the price.



The min. requirement is an office in Cyprus (real one) with 3 staff members, you can be one of them but need to be present there in about 60% - 80% of the time during a year, not sure if that is possible for you.


We can of course open a bank account for a licensed Forex trading company with all the major banks in Cyprus (Greek part of Cyprus only) which includes Bank of Cyprus, Bank of Piraeus and many more..


1. Establish Cyprus company.


Coast 3 000 EUR.



Requirements:???



How long it will take????



Only requirement is a copy of passport or other photo ID and a utility bill not older than 3 months and in English, alternative a credit card/bank statement. It takes in average 14 business days for the incorporation to take place.

After I did it, I can assign me self in this company lets ssay as a one of the director.

Min requirements:????



Not sure where you have the figure of EUR 180.000 from, please see my comment above, You can assign yourself at any time as director of the company. You can have any other activity as you like no limits there.


The min. requirement to apply for the CySec license is to have the company incorporated and the real office in place with staff, also all legal documents and the operations manuals need to be prepared (we will do that together with you) all in all this process takes in average 3 months.


Your fees is 20 000 EUR, what is the scedual of the payment?
