Money Laundering requirements and British Virgin Island company

Money Laundering requirements and British...

Didn't find your answer?

Can anyone give us some pointers on how to carry out satisfactory 'know your client' checks in the following situation?

UK rental property owned by a British Virgin Islands registered company.

We are acting in respect of teh UK tax return of property income.

We have a copy of the Certificate of Incorporation (but have not seen the original).

The beneficial owner is a non UK national, but married to a UK citizen, whom we have known for at least fifteen years, and have also acted for previously.

Thanks for any advice on how to proceed.

any answer ?

Did you ever get a solution to this newmoon ?

I've just been approached by a Turkish national to prepare accounts for a UK LLP with himself and a BVI company as partners. I'm nervous about the MLA implications and I'm not sure how to go about checking the BVI company.
