The purchaser has to cover the standard annual maintenance fees for the full elapsed period of time starting from the initial registration of the company. This is important especially when purchasing companies that are older than 1 year at the date of purchase (i.e. Vintage Companies). They are substantially more expensive than new incorporated company due to accumulation of the previous annual maintenance fees.
