How we work

A standard framework for most projects: from diagnostics and structuring to documentation, procedures and final confirmation of outcomes.

Step 1: Quick assessment & objectives We clarify the goal, geography, risk profile, timelines and current status. We identify bottlenecks.
  • who the client/beneficial owners are (KYC/UBO);
  • desired outcome: company / subsidiary / branch / non-profit / residence / license / transaction / payments / recovery;
  • requirements of regulators/banks/PSPs/notary/registries.
Step 2: Structure & roadmap We define a step-by-step plan: documents, procedures, dependencies and approvals.
  • ownership and governance structure;
  • document checklist and templates (including bylaws/statute for non-profits, if relevant);
  • timeline: what can be accelerated vs what is strictly procedural.
Step 3: Documentation & compliance We prepare a package designed to pass checks and satisfy procedural requirements.
  • corporate resolutions, contracts, filings;
  • policies/procedures (AML/KYC) for regulated projects and donation-ready governance for non-profits;
  • proper fixation of communications and evidence trails.
Step 4: Procedures & support We coordinate notary/registries/partners and control progress through milestones.
  • submissions, registrations, notifications;
  • responses to requests and clarifications;
  • final documentation confirming the outcome.
Practical reality: timelines and decisions often depend on external parties (regulators, courts, banks, PSPs). We manage the process to reduce risks and delays, but we do not replace third-party decision makers.

FAQ

Who does BHL work with?
International businesses and private clients: corporate projects (including subsidiaries/branches), non-profit foundations/charities, residence/relocation, real estate, fintech and licensing, operational services, US/Canada-oriented structuring packs, and debt recovery in BiH/RS.
Can we start remotely?
Yes. Most projects can start remotely: assessment, checklist, structuring and documentation. Notary/registry/bank steps depend on formal procedures.
Do you guarantee licensing, banking or high-risk processing outcomes?
No. Final decisions are made by regulators, banks and PSPs. We provide compliant preparation and procedural support.
Do you work with foreign beneficial owners and cross-border structures?
Yes. We frequently support cases where the UBO is abroad while the company/assets/procedures are in BiH/RS.
Can you set up a foundation/NGO in Bosnia and help with donation-ready documentation?
Yes. We help choose the right form (foundation vs association/NGO), draft bylaws/statute and governance rules, handle registration steps, and prepare bank-ready KYB logic for donation flows and compliance questions.
How are fees determined?
By complexity, urgency, volume of documents, number of parties and regulatory requirements. We propose a staged scope and confirm it in a signed agreement.
Is this page a public offer?
No. The information is for general guidance and does not constitute a public offer. Terms are fixed only in signed documents.
