The Nevis Limited Liability Company (LLC) is one of the most attractive and convenient offshore company structures in the world. It is known for its robust asset protection and flexible operational framework, as evidenced by the repeated replication of the legislation across many other jurisdictions worldwide.
A Nevis LLC is created under the Nevis Limited Liability Company Ordinance 1995, amended in 2015 to enhance its asset protection features even further.
This LLC provides standalone creditor protection and is commonly paired with a Cook Islands International Trust for enhanced security. Together, they form a potent Asset Protection Trust structure, shielding members from LLC debts and establishing one of the most effective global asset protection tools.

What is a Nevis LLC
This LLC is a sophisticated legal entity established under the Nevis Limited Liability Company Ordinance, which synthesizes robust asset protection mechanisms with operational flexibility. Establishing a company in Nevis can offer entrepreneurs and business owners many advantages, similar to but distinct from a Cook Islands LLC.
Notably, Nevis LLCs benefit from the jurisdiction’s mature legal framework, which requires creditors to post substantial bonds before initiating proceedings and imposes a two-year statute of limitations on fraudulent transfer claims.
The structure’s foundational architecture also incorporates multiple layers of asset protection: segregation of personal and business assets, comprehensive privacy provisions, and strategic limitations on creditor remedies. Unlike conventional domestic LLCs, a Nevis LLC mandates that creditors pursue claims exclusively within Nevis courts, establishing a significant jurisdictional barrier.
Furthermore, the structure permits flexible management configurations, accommodating both member-managed and manager-managed operational frameworks while maintaining strict confidentiality regarding beneficial ownership.
The Benefits of Nevis LLC Formation
1
LLCs offer strong creditor protection on their own and work even more effectively with trusts for added security. Property transfers to Nevis LLCs are safeguarded from creditor claims by fraud prevention laws aligned with Nevis trust regulations.
2
Nevis law allows for single-member LLCs that the member or an appointed manager can manage. Members of a Nevis LLC enjoy limited liability, protecting their personal assets up to the extent of their capital contributions. The only remedy against an LLC member is a three-year charging order on their membership interest, enforced solely by the Nevis High Court. Foreign judgments cannot directly affect them.
3
Creditors must pay a bond of US $ 100,000 to the Nevis High Court before pursuing judgments against a Nevis LLC or its members, ensuring a fair legal process.
4
Nevis does not readily recognize foreign judgments, which provides additional protection against legal actions and safeguards wealth during economic uncertainty.
5
The LLC keeps details of managers, members, and beneficial owners confidential through the registered agent, without centralized public records.
6
Nevis LLCs benefit from simplified tax filing requirements. They file an annual Simplified Tax Return in Nevis based on where the LLC is managed and controlled.
7
Records are maintained by the registered agent or designated by LLC management, reducing administrative burdens and ensuring efficient operations.
8
Income generated by your Nevis LLC is exempt from taxation in Nevis if it’s sourced outside of the jurisdiction, provided management and control occur outside of Nevis.
Who Should Consider Opening a Nevis LLC?
Primary candidates usually operate within specific risk profiles and asset protection parameters. These include those from professional sectors with elevated litigation exposure, significant wealth preservation requirements, or strategic privacy imperatives, including:
- Medical practitioners
- Technology entrepreneurs
- Legal practitioners
- Financial advisors
- Real estate developers
- Management consultants
- Investment professionals
- High-net-worth individuals
While some professionals may also consider a Nevis asset protection trust, a Nevis LLC formation offers strategic insulation of personal assets from potential malpractice claims for these professionals, establishing a robust barrier between professional liability and accumulated wealth.
How Is a Nevis LLC Structured?
Member(s)
These LLCs are owned by members who can be individuals, other companies, or trusts. Members have ownership interests in the LLC, which can be structured in terms of percentage ownership.
Nevis legislation permits single-member LLCs, which can be structured as either member-managed or manager-managed entities. This provision enables individuals to establish standalone LLCs through Offshore Broker.
Manager(s)
The LLC can be managed by one or more managers, who may or may not be members of the LLC. The managers are responsible for the decision-making of the company.
Operating Agreement
Nevis LLCs operate based on an operating agreement, which outlines the rights, responsibilities, and duties of the members and managers.
Registered Agent
A Nevis registered agent is required and is included in your incorporation fee.
All of the above is made simple with Offshore Broker’s onboarding process, which can establish your LLC in 2-5 days.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do I need to visit Nevis to form an LLC?
No, you do not need to visit Nevis to form an LLC. The entire process can be facilitated through a registered agent or offshore service provider who handles the incorporation on your behalf.
Is my information kept confidential with a Nevis LLC?
Unlike other offshore jurisdictions, Nevis LLCs prioritize privacy and confidentiality. Ownership details and financial information are not part of the public record, providing anonymity and security for members and stakeholders.
What is the advantage of combining a Cook Islands Trust with an LLC?
Nevis LLCs are often paired with Cook Islands trusts to create a powerful asset protection structure. The LLC serves as the operational entity, providing immediate asset protection through its robust limited liability provisions and operational flexibility. It enables active management of assets, including real estate, investment portfolios, and intellectual property, while shielding assets from creditors and legal claims.
Simultaneously, assets held within the LLC can be transferred to a Cook Islands trust, which adds an additional layer of protection. These trusts are renowned for their robust asset protection laws, including strict confidentiality provisions and limited recognition of foreign judgments. This dual-structure approach allows for effective wealth preservation while maintaining practical control over assets, making it a popular choice for high-net-worth individuals and families seeking comprehensive protection.
