01What exactly does 11 Brotherhood do?
We help you run a real business in another ASEAN country without building everything from zero. We set up your legal company, give you a shared warehouse, run your e-commerce and social media, and put a trusted local person, your Butler, on the ground for you.
02Which countries can I expand to?
All 11 ASEAN members: Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Singapore, the Philippines, Cambodia, Myanmar, Laos, Brunei and Timor-Leste. You can start with one and add more whenever you are ready.
03Do I have to travel or live in that country?
No. Most of the process is handled remotely by our team and your Butler. Some steps, such as opening a bank account, may need a short visit or a video call, depending on the country and the bank. We will tell you in advance.
04Can a foreigner own the company?
In most cases, yes. Foreign-ownership rules differ by country and by business sector, so we first check your product and recommend the right structure, for example a Sdn Bhd in Malaysia or a PT PMA in Indonesia, before anything is registered.
05How long does it take to set up a company?
It depends on the country and on how quickly your documents are ready. When we plan together, we give you a step-by-step timeline for each country, so you know what happens and when.
06What documents do I need to prepare?
Usually a passport copy of each director and shareholder, proof of address, your proposed company name and a short description of your business. We send you an exact checklist for your chosen country, so you prepare only what is needed.
07What is a Butler, and why do I need one?
Your Butler is your trusted person on the ground: a registered local representative who attends meetings, speaks the language, solves problems and keeps things moving for you. Officially, the Butler is your first local employee, paid the local minimum wage.
08Is a nominee director safe? Will I keep control?
Yes. Where a country requires a local director, the nominee is appointed under a written agreement that keeps ownership and decisions with you. You remain the shareholder and the owner of the business.
09Can you help me open a corporate bank account?
Yes. We prepare the documents and accompany the process, and if one bank declines, we help you apply to another at no extra consultancy fee. Final approval always rests with the bank.
10Do I need a work visa?
Only if you or your team will work in that country. We handle work visa applications where they are needed, subject to approval by the immigration authorities.
11How do your packages and prices work?
Our packages follow the local minimum wage, so the price is fair in every country. Ready to Work costs 2× the local minimum wage per month, and Agentic costs 12×, per country. Pay yearly and you get one month free.
12Are there any hidden costs?
No hidden fees. Everything is listed in your quotation before you start. Government fees and third-party costs, such as registration or licence fees, are shown separately so you can see exactly where your money goes.
13How does the shared warehouse work?
You send your stock to our warehouse in the country, and we store, pack and ship every order as a local seller would. Your package includes up to 1,000 deliveries, with no lease and no warehouse team to hire.
14Can you register my products, such as FDA or halal?
Yes. We help with product registration and import licensing, including food, cosmetic and health product approvals and halal certification where required. Requirements and timelines depend on your product and the country.
15Which marketplaces can I sell on?
TikTok Shop, Shopee, Lazada, Tokopedia, Amazon, your own Shopify store and more, depending on the country. We also help you get Official Mall status and give you direct access to TikTok AMs and Shopee RMs.
16Will you create content and livestream in the local language?
Yes. With the Agentic package, our local team runs 24/7 livestreams, customer service and marketplace management, produces 30 videos a month and manages affiliates and ads, all in the local language.
17How do you handle tax and accounting?
Together with our licensed tax and audit partners, we prepare your bookkeeping, financial statements, tax computation and filing. You send your bank statements; we prepare the rest and keep your tax as efficient as the law allows.
18Can I start with one country and expand later?
Absolutely. Most founders start with one market, prove it works, then copy the same blueprint into the next country. Your dashboard shows every market in one place as you grow.
19Who owns the company, the store accounts and the data?
You do. The company, the marketplace stores, the social media accounts and the customer data are registered to your business. We operate them for you, but they are yours.
20How do I get started?
Message our founder on WhatsApp. We will have a short call, understand your product and target market, and send you a clear plan and quotation. Once you agree, we start registering your company.
