Vantablack advises on your setup and delivers the work included in Basic or Advanced Setup. Additional specialist work is delivered through verified partners.

If an approved Vantablack team offers your requested service in future, its quote will appear first alongside partner options. You choose. First position does not mean the lowest cost. Today, our internal delivery is limited to setup and agreed management and support.

Provider availability and the agreed scope are confirmed for each request. Selection alone does not start work or confirm payment.

What happens at each step?

Your part, our part and what you receive. Some stages may run in parallel.

01ExploreExploreStart with a useful question.

Your part

Read guides, search activities or ask the Community.

Our part

Help you prepare a clear business brief.

What you can see

A starting point for advice, not an activity approval.

Explore the Community
02DecideConsultConfirm what your business needs.

Your part

Explain your activity, customers, premises and visa needs.

Our part

A named consultant from your first message. We assess the route and flag approvals or unresolved requirements.

What you can see

A recommended next step before you commit. Book the consultation yourself or we call you.

Your part

Review the documents and any remaining tasks.

08GrowOngoing supportReturn when your business needs us.

Your part

Visas, the company bank account, renewals and changes, each step tracked in the same workspace.

Our part

Prepare your bank-ready pack, run the agreed visa steps and remind you 60, 30 and 7 days before every renewal.

What you can see

Your company can become a Vantablack partner and win work from our clients. Community membership is separate from paid support.

Before you start: common questions
BEFORE YOU START

Before you start.

Do I have to join the Community before booking?

No. You can book a first consultation directly. Joining the Community is an optional way to explore and stay connected.

Does an accepted quote mean my company is approved?

No. Acceptance records the agreed service. Authorities decide licensing and visa applications; banks decide account applications. Your consultant explains the requirements and outstanding steps.

Can I pay by card?

Card checkout is not currently connected. Your quote shows the available payment arrangements. Payment must be verified before onboarding; selecting a method does not confirm a payment.

Are all the services included in one package?

No. Your agreed scope lists inclusions, exclusions and third-party charges. Extras and renewals are separate unless included.

Where do digital tools and human expertise fit?

The website helps organise enquiries, quotes, documents and project updates. Your consultant remains responsible for reviewing advice and coordinating your case. No automated tool can grant an authority or bank approval.

YOUR NEXT STEP

What must happen before the next step can proceed?

Why this matters

Company setup has steps that depend on each other. Check eligibility and key approvals before moving on. Not every step will finish at the same time.

What could change the answer?

A missing document or approval can delay the next step. A target date does not remove these requirements.

Check these details first

  • What must happen first and which documents are missing
  • Activity requirements and extra approvals
  • Premises and signing requirements
  • Requirements following licence issuance
