What is a nominee director?

When you want to incorporate a business in many Asian countries, you need a director who is a resident of the country you are expanding to. That depends on: 1) if your business is open to 100% foreign ownership or not, and 2) if you have any local person who can be a resident director. If you do not have anyone to assist you on the ground, you can hire a service provider to take up the role of the nominee director for a fee. The nominee director also known as resident/independent director, will fullfill legal regulations and obligations on behalf of your business but he/she would not necessarily play an active role in the company's operations.
