Timeline & approach
How we take Bookkeeping services from plan to authorisation
Step 1
Eligibility & structure
We map your activity to the right IFSCA category and sub-category, confirm net worth, KMP and shareholding eligibility, and fix the holding structure.
Step 2
SEZ unit approval
Unit application to the Development Commissioner, Letter of Approval, office space lease and NDC/customs registrations.
Step 3
IFSCA application
Application, business plan, policies (AML/CFT, risk, outsourcing, cyber), KMP profiles and query resolution until in-principle approval.
Step 4
Go-live & compliance calendar
Bank account, systems, statutory registrations, commencement intimation and handover to a live obligation calendar in your Gateway portal.
Scope & commercials
Confirmed in writing after a scope review
