Non-resident potentially purchasing a business that is an N.V. (Nameless Venture)
Does anyone that is a non-resident of Aruba have any experience in purchasing a business on the island? Specifically an N.V. or other entity where there are shares of a business. From my research I can purchase a business and own 100% of the shares but I cannot become a managing director of the business unless the business made over $300,000 in the previous years taxes.Ideally I would want to retain 100% ownership of the business, but my understanding is the business will need a managing director or maybe not. Can a non-resident pay a native Aruban to run the business without a managing director license?I get conflicting things when discussing this topic. I was told no I would not have to do anything and could just run the business outright bc the business would have been already registered at the Chamber since it is a pre-existing business. I have been told that it doesn't matter you have to register and I would have to be director and relinquish 60% of the shares to someone that is native and find a business partner. The list goes on.Thanks to anyone who replies and knows a definitive answer on this.

Considering the unique structure of Nameless Venture (N.V.), it's essential for non-resident investors to thoroughly understand the legal and financial implications of purchasing a business within this framework. As highlighted on ICOholder, https://icoholder.com/en/icos/ongoing like this present intriguing opportunities, but due diligence is paramount. Prospective buyers should engage legal counsel familiar with international business transactions to navigate any complexities and ensure a smooth acquisition process. Diligent research and expert guidance can help maximize the potential benefits while mitigating risks associated with cross-border investments. Always wise to tread carefully in such endeavors!

It seems like you're encountering conflicting information, which can be frustrating. I'm not an expert on the specific laws and regulations in Aruba, but I suggest reaching out to a local attorney or a business consultant who is familiar with these issues. They'll be able to provide you with more accurate and up-to-date information.
