In certain business conditions it is advisable for an offshore company to have more that just the "minimum local presence" in the country of registration. In active business applications, the IBC might well use what's called a "virtual office facility" - an advanced communications services package. This may include a full address for business correspondence, telephone and fax numbers, mail and fax forwarding service, document re-mailing and call handling service. These services would provide Your offshore company with a more comprehensive "ground presence" in the country of incorporation, giving the company a more "bricks and mortar" appearance in active trading situations.
The following is a brief description of the virtual office / communications services, as provided by Fidelity Corporate Services Ltd in the British Virgin Islands.
Any of the services mentioned herein are only provided to active BVI Business Companies for which Fidelity Corporate Services Ltd provides the service of the Registered Agent and Address. Provision of any of these services will be ceased immediately and without notice if the company loses the status of good standing or changes its Registered Agent to another service provider.
CALL HANDLING SERVICE
A shared domestic telephone line (different and separate from our normal business lines) will be used to take calls and telephone messages on behalf of Your company in the BVI. This service enables You to show a local telephone number in Your letterheads and stationery. The call handling service is only available during the official business hours in the British Virgin Islands.
Same telephone line will be used to provide the call handling service to a reasonable amount of unrelated companies. While the incoming call will not be answered in Your company name, we will confirm upon request that the caller has reached the BVI office of Your company and will request caller to state his business and leave his particulars. We will offer to take message and, if such message is provided, it will be forwarded to You by email or other method of communication.
We will normally not engage into any interactive and detailed business communication on behalf of Your company over the telephone, and we will not make any representations or statements as regards Your company's business. All calls may be recorded for further reference purposes.
