We are often asked by our clients, "In your opinion, which is the best place to set up an offshore company?"
Well each client's requirements are of course different, meaning there is no definitive right or wrong answer, at least without knowing further how and where the company will be used. However, provided there are no complicated requirements which need to take advantage of particular double taxation treaties, or perhaps for VAT registration in order trade with the EU, then Belize, BVI, Nevis and the Seychelles will all provide good stable jurisdictions to operate through. If we were pushed to choose which of these we considered the best then we would have to say the Seychelles. Not only is it is our best selling jurisdiction but it is also our lowest cost.
Other advantages include:
- The Seychelles is fully Independent so there is no outside interference from the UK, EU or US
- Both politically and economically stable
- Fast incorporation process
- Very flexible company name rules
- Minimal compliance and accounting requirements
- Bearer shares allowed (although we do not recommend them)
- No foreign exchange controls
- Great value for money
- Zero tax for IBCs
- Low tax rate for Special Licence Companies but with access to double taxation treaties which makes them ideal for investing in China
- Not influenced by the EU Savings Tax Directive
- Excellent for holding UK property investments by non-UK residents.
