Determine how you want to act. Can decide to buy ready-made offshore company. Or through a special Agency to register a new one. Your name will not appear in open account, only the name of the company.
3
Decide whether you want to personally go to a country where open offshore account. Many banks in some countries offer to do it remotely. This opportunity is offered to use, for example, in Cyprus, Latvia, CIM Banque in Switzerland.
4
Look at the direction of the selected Bank. Some are designed for long-term storage of money, others work on the regular payroll. Find out about the availability of counterparties and also verify if there is a list of banks with which they work in your country of residence. Opening an account in such an organization will look more believable by third parties.
