From US$949 Transfer to ExpanshipFrequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about registered agent obligations for Saint Vincent and the Grenadines companies.
Yes. Under SVG's corporate legislation, every business company must appoint and maintain a registered agent licensed by the Financial Services Authority (FSA). This requirement is in effect from the date of incorporation.
Core duties include accepting official notices from the FSA, handling annual fee payments, maintaining the register of directors and shareholders, processing changes to company details, and alerting you to compliance deadlines and regulatory developments.
Yes. SVG law permits you to appoint a new registered agent at any time. The transition is handled by notifying the FSA and transferring corporate records from the former agent to the new one, with no disruption to your company's standing.
A business company operating without a registered agent violates SVG corporate law. The FSA can levy fines, suspend the company's status, and ultimately strike it from the register — effectively dissolving the entity.
Fees depend on the provider's service scope. We bundle registered agent services into every SVG incorporation and compliance package, so there's no standalone agent charge. All standard duties are covered, from FSA communications to annual renewal coordination.
Beyond the essentials, agents commonly offer help with corporate resolutions, director and shareholder changes, Good Standing certificates, document legalisation, and advisory support when SVG's regulatory framework is updated.
Confirm the agent holds a current FSA licence. Assess their experience with international business companies, the clarity of their pricing model, their responsiveness, and whether they provide comprehensive support beyond basic filing duties.
Yes. The FSA mandates that registered agents maintain a registered office address in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. This ensures there is always a local point of contact available for government correspondence and regulatory interactions.
