Audit of foreign companies (overview)
Open pricing. The final quote is fixed in writing before work starts.
We prepare financial statements and arrange audits for foreign companies across a range of jurisdictions: offshore zones (BVI, Seychelles), Europe (United Kingdom, Cyprus), and Asia and the Middle East (Hong Kong and others). This service is for owners of foreign companies who need to meet the filing requirements of the jurisdiction of incorporation, as well as those who need accounts for banks, counterparties or the tax authorities of their country of residence.
We handle both dormant companies (nil accounts at fixed rates) and active ones, where the cost is calculated at an hourly rate and depends on the number of transactions and the quality of the source documents. We prepare accounts under IFRS and local standards, including audit opinions under Seychelles GAAP, and advise on the requirements of specific jurisdictions. Before starting, we estimate the scope of work and give you a cost benchmark so there are no surprises.

A foreign company's accounts are checked by the registrar, the bank and the owner's tax office
The law does not stop you from preparing a foreign company's accounts on your own. But mistakes cost more than the audit: a missed filing deadline in the jurisdiction of incorporation with a penalty and strike-off, nil accounts where there was activity, accounts under the wrong standards that the bank will not accept, and a missing audit where the owner's home tax rules require one. Murblz specialists prepare accounts to the required standards and arrange the audit.
The cost of support depends on the jurisdiction, the volume of operations and whether an audit is needed; a manager will calculate it in the chat.
