Clearer guidance and wider use of limited liability companies
Following consultation, we will update our Limited Liability Companies (LLC) guidance, making it easier and clearer to use LLCs across a wider range of regulated activities.
The updated guidance and registry arrangements will take effect from 14 October 2026.
Feedback summary
We received three consultation responses.
All respondents supported the proposals to:
-
allow LLCs to act as trustees
-
allow LLCs to be used for specified financial services activities
-
remove restrictions limiting LLCs to financially sophisticated investors or customers
-
improve the clarity and usability of the guidance
Respondents welcomed the increased flexibility and agreed that the revised guidance is clearer and easier to apply in practice.
Next steps
We will proceed with the proposals set out in the consultation, with the updated guidance and registry arrangements taking effect from 14 October 2026.
These changes support our commitment to a simpler regulatory framework that makes it easier to do business in Jersey, and they align our guidance with revisions to Jersey’s legal framework.
