The benefits of setting up an international company

There is always a reason why you should think operate overseas. Given the tax incentives available globally, we see organizations directing their profits from high tax countries to other jurisdictions and international business centres and taking advantage of the DTTs and the low tax rates available. The following are some of the points to consider:

  • Minimise taxes
    Registering an offshore company and take the advantage of DTT and lower tax rates can legally minimise tax obligations of a business and this is often the primary reason for incorporating a business offshore. Non – resident companies are often tax exempt or enjoy low levels of taxation depending upon the country. However corporate taxation matters can become very complicated and it is very important to be guided by an experienced professional.
  • Confidentiality
    Companies, in some countries, may not be required to publish financial information or the details of directors and shareholders. Or it may be possible to use the services of director and shareholder services in place of the ultimate beneficial owner.
  • Asset Protection
    For those with international business interests, an offshore company can be valuable as a vehicle for holding assets such as intellectual property or real estate investments.

    • Use the international company for invoicing and re-invoicing
    • Use anonymity (to receive commissions, buy property etc)
