A Bermuda-based incorporation platform governed by an experienced Board and supported by leading local legal firms — ensuring every business is properly reviewed, approved, and compliant.

Affordable Incorporation

Why Incorporation Matters

Affordable Incorporation

We help entrepreneurs operate as fully incorporated businesses through a low-cost, monthly membership model — removing the high upfront cost of traditional incorporation.

Why Incorporation Matters

Operating unincorporated exposes entrepreneurs to personal liability, limits business growth and a lack of permanence and estate planning. We believe incorporation should be accessible earlier in a business’s journey.

What is BBS ISAC Ltd?

About ISAC Structures

Bermuda’s Incorporated Segregated Accounts Company (ISAC) framework, in force since 2019, allows a registered ISAC to establish multiple Incorporated Segregated Accounts (ISAs). Each ISA has its own legal personality, enabling it to contract, hold assets, and incur liabilities in its own name.

This structure allows entrepreneurs to protect personal assets, operate with confidence, and establish a credible, fully incorporated business in a cost-efficient way. Each ISA operates as a legally separate business within the ISAC framework, with assets and liabilities that are clearly segregated, meaning obligations of one ISA cannot affect another. Every ISA maintains its own governance documents, directors, and separate financial records.

How long is the BBS Application process?

We strive to be as efficient as possible, knowing that your time is valuable. Our implementation of smart PDFs allows the form-filling process to take roughly 20-30 minutes. Once we receive all completed documentation, we anticipate 4-6 weeks for the incorporation process.

Why is it important to have a company structure?

As a sole trader, you are personally responsible, and when you sign a contract or serve a customer, you may be exposing yourself to the risk of losing your personal assets. An incorporated company can raise money, sign leases, employ staff and the liability remains in the company.

What is the Invoice Payment Cycle?

Your monthly billing cycle begins once your ISA is officially incorporated.

Your first invoice will be pro-rated from your incorporation date to the end of that month. After that, all invoices are issued on a standard monthly cycle, starting on the 1st of each month, for simplicity and consistency.

Does the monthly BBS fee include the annual government fee? and whether there will be some sort of confirmation for my records when these fees have been paid on my behalf each year.

Yes, the monthly BBS fee includes your annual government fee. Your invoices and statements will provide confirmation for your records when these fees have been paid on your behalf each year.

What’s the difference between an ISA and a Limited Company?

Both an ISA and a limited company provide asset protection and business credibility, but a limited company stands entirely on its own. An ISA exists within a larger ISAC structure, which allows founders to launch and operate a business more quickly and cost-effectively, with some limits on autonomy compared to a standalone company.

Should I incorporate as an ISA or a Limited Company?

An ISA under an ISAC is an excellent option for entrepreneurs who want speed, lower cost, and strong asset protection while building or scaling a business. A standalone limited company may be more appropriate if you require full corporate independence, plan to raise institutional investment, issue complex share structures, or anticipate a merger in the future. However, always seek your own legal advice.

What if I no longer want to be an ISA - would I then be required to go through the incorporation process again to become a LLC?

If you 'spin off', from the BBS ISAC structure, then decide to incorporate as a limited liability company, you will need to go through the incorporation process in order to do so.

Does BBS provide corporate administration services?

No, BBS does not provide corporate administration services, however once incorporated, Walkers Bermuda is the corporate service provide for both the individual ISAs and entire ISAC structure.
