Common questions about Bahamas company compliance pricing, annual obligations, and what's covered in our package
For companies newly formed through Expanship, compliance for the first year is generally bundled into your incorporation package. The US$1,099 annual fee kicks in from the second year onward.

Yes. The annual government fee paid to the Registrar General is fully included in your package. This fee is required each year by January 1st to keep your company on the Register. Late payment triggers a 10% surcharge from April 1st, escalating to 50% from November 1st, with the risk of being struck off entirely. Our package ensures this is handled well ahead of the deadline on your behalf.
