Licenses & Registration

A European medical device manufacturer was preparing to launch its products in the U.S. but faced a critical regulatory hurdle: FDA registration. Without it, the company risked customs delays, penalties, and loss of credibility with distributors. The client had no prior experience navigating the FDA’s complex requirements and timelines.

NYBACS stepped in to prepare and submit the client’s FDA Establishment Registration and Medical Device Listing. Our team coordinated directly with the FDA, compiled product documentation, and ensured full compliance with labeling and manufacturing standards.

Within six weeks, the company secured FDA approval, enabling it to enter the U.S. market legally and on schedule. With licenses in place, the client successfully onboarded distributors and expanded into one of the world’s largest healthcare markets.

A London-based SaaS startup was scaling its customer base across Europe. However, selling digital services in multiple EU jurisdictions required proper VAT registration and compliance with the UK’s HMRC rules. The founders were concerned about penalties for incorrect VAT filings and needed a clear, scalable solution.

NYBACS advised the client on their VAT obligations, registered the company with HMRC for UK VAT, and facilitated setup under the EU’s OSS (One Stop Shop) VAT regime. This streamlined their compliance across multiple member states, removing the need for separate registrations in each country.

As a result, the startup became fully tax compliant, avoided financial exposure, and was able to invoice clients across the EU with proper VAT treatment. Their credibility with investors also improved, positioning them strongly for their next fundraising round.

An SME operating in a UAE free zone had completed incorporation but was unable to begin trading without securing the necessary trade license and VAT registration. The founders were unfamiliar with the regulatory process and risked delays in starting operations.

NYBACS assessed the firm’s business model, obtained the free zone trade license, and completed VAT registration with the Federal Tax Authority. To ensure long-term compliance, we also created a compliance calendar with automated reminders for license renewals and VAT filing deadlines.

With approvals secured, the client launched operations within weeks and began trading regionally without risk of non-compliance. The structured approach gave the firm confidence to scale while staying aligned with UAE regulatory requirements.

Singapore Family Office A newly established family office in Singapore planned to manage assets and provide advisory services to global investors. However, the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) has strict requirements for investment activity licenses. Non-compliance could have jeopardized the office’s ability to legally manage funds.

NYBACS worked with the family office to structure their investment activities, filed the required MAS license applications, and coordinated compliance documentation with local legal advisors. We also created an internal compliance framework to meet ongoing MAS oversight standards.

The family office secured MAS approval within the expected timeline, allowing it to legally manage client portfolios and expand its investor base. With regulatory compliance in place, the office gained credibility among global investors and counterparties.

An international e-commerce brand expanding into the U.S. faced a growing issue: sales tax nexus in multiple states. Without registering for sales tax permits, the company risked penalties, back taxes, and account freezes on major e-commerce platforms.

NYBACS registered the company for sales tax permits across 14 U.S. states, integrated their compliance into automated tax software, and aligned them with IRS reporting requirements. Our team also advised on structuring to reduce unnecessary tax exposure.

With registrations complete, the client avoided financial risk, streamlined compliance, and maintained uninterrupted sales on major e-commerce platforms. Their proactive compliance positioning also improved trust with investors and banking partners.

A German F&B company planned to expand into multiple European markets but required a mix of food safety registrations, import permits, and VAT filings before it could distribute products legally. Without these, customs clearance and supermarket partnerships were impossible.

NYBACS guided the company through registrations with national Food Safety Authorities, secured import/export permits, and obtained VAT numbers in three target countries. We also built a compliance schedule to monitor renewals and ongoing filings.

Within one quarter, the company successfully launched in three new markets, gaining shelf space in supermarkets and meeting all regulatory
