REGISTERED AGENT

In contrast to the traditional 1931 Act Company, Isle of Man 2006 Act Companies only require one director, and they do not need a company secretary. Instead, it is a requirement for a 2006 Act company to have a Registered Agent in place.

The Registered Agent is responsible for ensuring that the Company is administered correctly, including the maintenance and submission of statutory filings as well as retaining company records including:

  • Financial statements & Accounting records
  • The Memorandum and Articles of Association
  • The register of members
  • The register of Directors
  • The register of charges
  • Minute books

As a Corporate Service Provider licensed by the Isle of Man, Atla Fiduciaries Limited can also provide Registered Agent Facilities, a requirement for all 2006 Act Companies.

Although the Registered Agent can be at a different address from the Company’s registered office, Atla Fiduciaries Limited can assist clients by providing both facilities, and our proactive approach ensures that clients are compliant with their statutory obligations.

REGISTERED OFFICE

There is a requirement for all Isle of Man companies to have a registered office in the Isle of Man. This registered office is the address held on public record at the Isle of Man Company Registry.

As well as being a service address, the registered office should hold the Company’s statutory documents including but not limited to:

  • The Memorandum and Articles of Association
  • The register of members
  • The register of Directors
  • The register of charges

With its long-established address at Burleigh Manor, Atla Fiduciaries Limited can provide registered office facilities for clients, proactively monitoring correspondence and maintaining statutory records on behalf of the client.

REDOMICILIATION

Company ‘redomiciliation’ is when a company moves its registration from one country to another, effectively moving the legal entity and its assets and liabilities.

The Isle of Man offers practical solutions for businesses looking to relocate, allowing for the redomiciliation of companies per the Companies (Transfer of Domicile) Act 1998, and we have considerable experience in assisting clients with each stage of the process.

Services include:

  • Governance and independence;
  • Directorships;
  • Corporate Vehicles;
  • Asset Management;
  • Administration Services;
  • Accounting Services.

COMPANY DISSOLUTION

The company directors can undertake the dissolution of a company once the Company has discharged all of its liabilities. Notice of the proposed dissolution must be issued to all directors, members and the company secretary. An application to dissolve the Company may then be made via a declaration of dissolution.

The declaration is signed and sworn by an officer of the Company before being lodged with the Companies Registry together with a filing fee. They will also seek approval for the dissolution from the Income Tax and Customs and Excise Divisions of the Isle of Man Treasury. There is a period of 30 days in which objections to the dissolution can be raised.

COMPANY LIQUIDATION

A liquidator can be appointed to carry out a Members Voluntary Liquidation for a more definitive method of closing a company down.

Regarding company liquidations, through our associate Chartered Accountancy practice, we have extensive experience in matters of insolvency, having been appointed as liquidators, receivers and trustees in bankruptcy by the Isle of Man High Court, as well as credit-applied situations.

  • Statutory work relating to dissolution/liquidation;

eGAMING, SPORT & ENTERTAINMENT

Using a combination of our other services, we can offer our clients a full suite of services to cover everything they may need.

Our small gaming team specialises in offering bespoke services to smaller licensed operators and fringe businesses with niche business models within the gaming industry.
