How long a company share transfer takes (and what delays it)

Registry speed is rarely the bottleneck. KYC, change-of-control filings and missing registers are.

Company acquisition

A company share transfer can close in days when the register is clean and both sides have documents. It can take weeks when KYC, apostilles or a change-of-control notice sit in the critical path.

What is usually fast

A dormant shelf with current filings, a local agent who answers, and a buyer who already has UBO IDs and source-of-wealth papers.

What is usually slow

Licensed vehicles (MSB, VASP, gaming), missing minute books, a director who must resign, and any bank that still sits on the file. Banks often re-underwrite; some walk.

Do not treat the click as a reservation

On Regulora, listings up to USD 15,000 can start with a crypto payment. Higher-priced files go through contact. Either way, handover waits on KYC.

This note is general information, not a closing timetable for a specific file.
