What documents and information can a third party obtain for a BVI company?

One of the factors that makes the British Virgin Islands (BVI) an attractive place in which to incorporate a private company is that a BVI company may keep documents and information about its ownership, management and financial affairs confidential if it wishes to do so.

Although confidentiality is desirable from the company's perspective, it means that only limited documents and information about the company are publicly available. This guide examines the documents and information about a BVI company (which is not a regulated person) that a third party can obtain from public and third party sources.
