E-mail and IP address
The Nominee Director represents the director of the company. Nominees are used mainly for security reasons -- to protect your personal information as well as your business activities. Countries who have accepted the Nominee system into their incorporation procedures are:
- Delaware Company
- UK Company
- Hong Kong Company
- Belize Company
- Nevada Company
- British Virgin Island Company
- Seychelles Company
Using a Nominee gives you the option not to provide authorities with your personal information. Your name, address, ID´s, and passport details are never registered, and therefore, never recorded to be shared to third parties.
The Power of Attorney is a legal document issued to protect the rights of your company. This document includes the Certification of Notary Public and Apostille. It protects your company´s rights and business activities.
Now you don´t need to open a new company by using personal information at the risk of thievery.
Security
The use of the Nominee Director´s information instead of your own gives you protection and security. Any required documents will be provided by the Nominee Director, without you having to inconvenience yourself. In short, you may incorporate a company without ever divulging any of your personal details.
The Nominee system is perfectly legal and is recognized by many tax havens around the world.

Nominee-Owner Relationship
Your rights as the real owner of the company is protected by the Power of Attorney. After the Nominee Director has completed the process of incorporating your company, he loses his rights over your business to you and will act only during maintenance activities of the corporation.
Power of Attorney
The Power of Attorney is a document issued to you that certifies your authority over your business. It gives the actual company owner the guarantee that the rights to your company will transfer back to you upon the completion of tasks by the Nominee Director.
This document is also applicable when opening corporate bank accounts. After the application process, account management can only be done by you as the Nominee loses his rights as soon as the application process is over.
Reliability of the Nominee Director
Availing of the Nominee System takes a lot of trust between the Nominee and the actual owner. Thus, it is important that nominees are trustworthy and that the Nominee System itself protects the actual owner from opportunists.
Oobac provides a nominee service that fulfills the necessary requirements for this system. With our thorough screening process, we can guarantee that our nominees will do only what´s necessary in a transaction.

Is this legal?

Risks in Using a Nominee
Using a nominee who lives in the same country as your residency or as the country in which you wish to incorporate the company, may produce high-risk results. Taxes and criminal laws will have to apply to both you and the nominee if he lives in the same country.
This is why Oobac makes the extra effort to ensure that the nominee is selected from a country that has a flexible regulation and allows its residents to provide nominee services. Please note it is different from the local director or shareholder services. In some countries, you may need local directors and shareholders as a part of the company structure. In this case, Oobac makes sure that everything is according to regulation and safe.
