FREQUENTLY ASKED

Before you enter the Philippine market.

How do you help foreign companies get set up?

We coordinate your setup from initial scoping and document preparation through applicable company, tax and local permit registrations. We bring in qualified specialists when your proposed structure or activities need professional review.

Can our overseas team manage the setup from abroad?

We can act as your local coordination point while your team works from overseas. We identify which steps can be handled remotely and flag any document, verification or in-person requirements for your specific setup.

Can you help us assess the right ownership and structure?

We gather your ownership and business activity details and coordinate a review with the appropriate qualified advisers. This helps your team assess the setup before committing to a registration path.

How do we plan the timeline and budget?

We scope the work around your proposed structure, documents, operating location and target start date. We outline the expected sequence and clarify service fees, government charges and any specialist costs before you proceed. Timing remains subject to document readiness and agency processing.

Does your support extend beyond company registration?

Yes. The agreed scope can include tax registration, applicable local permits and employer registration coordination. We identify what is included in your setup plan and what requires a separate engagement.

Are you a government agency or law firm?

No. FRACTION is an independent business setup and coordination service. Where a matter requires legal, tax, accounting or other regulated professional advice, we can coordinate with the appropriate qualified specialist.
