Typically, our clients utilise the following types of offshore companies to structure international business and for tax planning:
Very low or zero tax offshore companies incorporated in jurisdictions often described as tax haven islands, such as the various types of offshore companies that can be formed in centres such as the British Virgin Islands, Belize, the Seychelles or Brunei.
Companies incorporated in jurisdictions which offer both offshore companies and onshore companies and which may benefit from favourable tax regulations and / or special offshore company regimes.
Companies incorporated in the many onshore countries which have tax regimes that are by statute tax advantageous for specific international purposes.
These tax advantageous regulations are used for a wide variety of tax planning businesses, such as:
• Double tax treaty planning relating to dividends, interest and royalty payments. • The establishment of holding, international headquarters, treasury and finance operations. • Specialist business, for example, leasing, personal and family wealth management and tax planning
Today the offshore world includes the expert implementation of specific tax advantageous structures domiciled in high tax onshore countries as diverse as the UK, Portugal, Singapore, Greece, Belgium, Austria, Spain, Switzerland, Luxembourg and the Netherlands.
Having years of experience in company formations we are able to advise our clients on the most suitable jurisdictions for their needs and then execute their requirements professionally and quickly. We already form companies in most major jurisdictions and are able to offer shelf companies in most.
