UBO Register Filing (UK/EU)
Companies House / EU Commercial Register · used for UK Companies House PSC · BE/NL/DE UBO Register · EU 6AMLD compliance
Anyone with cross-border income, accounts, or entities cannot skip the UBO Register Filing (UK/EU) — it lowers withholding tax and prevents FATCA/CRS penalties.
End-to-end: bank self-certifications → TRC → DTA claims → UBO disclosure → FinCEN BOI → exit-tax planning.
Preparation at Companies House / EU Commercial Register takes 7-21 working days at 8,000-25,000 บาท + ค่าธรรมเนียมต่างประเทศ. NYC Legal handles intake, residency analysis, drafting, certification, and filing.
Translation to the destination language is then required — English (US/UK/AU/CA/NZ/SG/HK), German (BZSt), French (DGFiP), Japanese (NTA), Dutch (Belastingdienst).
Our 14-country tax-counsel network (US CPA, UK CTA, German Steuerberater, French Expert-comptable, Japanese 税理士) confirms that the UBO Register Filing (UK/EU) is used to its full treaty benefit.
First-pass acceptance at destination authorities: 97-99%.
