Company Formation Services
A business needs to be flexible, versatile, and organised in such a way so as to maximise its profits. It is therefore important to structure a business so that costs in labour, administration, management and production are minimised and taxes are reduced to a minimum. We can offer you advice on how to best structure your business and reduce your tax burden. This may include incorporation (registration) of a company in one or more jurisdictions, including a “tax haven” jurisdiction which facilitates reduced taxes, so that to maximise the savings on tax or personal income or save on labour, production and administration costs, by utilising legal benefits different jurisdictions have to offer.
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 havens, e.g. the differing types of offshore companies that can be formed in countries such as the British Virgin Islands (BVI), Belize, Panama, the Seychelles and Cayman islands.
- 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 such as Luxemburg, New Zealand or the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
- Companies incorporated in the many 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 business, 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.
The offshore world today includes the implementation of specific tax advantageous structures domiciled in high tax onshore countries as diverse as China, India, Russia, the USA, the United Kingdom (UK), Singapore, Switzerland, and many EU countries.
Changes in the company incorporation market e.g. in bank secrecy laws, tax laws, capital controls, anti-money laundering obligations etc. create a need for flexibility in international company incorporation.
