Want to buy a back dated or Shelf Company or already registered company?

Company cannot be incorporated back dated. Companies are incorporated on the date when ASIC approves your company registration application and registers your company. So, the date when the company gets registered with ASIC is the date of incorporation of company.

If you require a company that is incorporated back dated, the only option is to buy a shelf company.

A shelf company is a company which has been created but has never traded or had any activity. It has metaphorically been 'put on the shelf' to age. It is pre-registered company that was created and left ‘on the shelf’ for later use.

Previously, it took weeks or months to form a company. People often needed a new company straight away. So solicitors, accountants and Shelf Company providers would incorporate companies beforehand and leave them sitting 'on the shelf' ready for their clients to buy. When a client wanted a company, the provider would take one of the shelf companies 'off the shelf' and transfer to the client by transferring ownership of the shares, changing the directors as well as the name of the company (if required).

However people still buy shelf companies for several reasons such as:

  • To bid on contracts which require that a company should be in business for a particular period.
  • To gain access to corporate credit.
  • To present corporate longevity in order to attract investors or consumers.

We have shelf companies that have never traded and can be used for some older transactions which need a corporate structure. If you wish to buy a shelf company, you can contact us for shelf companies.
