What is an Offshore Company?
Steps to Set Up Your Business in an Offshore Company
Offshore jurisdictions provide several advantages for businesses, including tax efficiency with low or zero corporate tax rates that can lower overall tax liabilities. They enhance privacy and confidentiality for shareholders and directors, offering strong protections for business information. Additionally, offshore companies serve as a means of asset protection against political or economic instability and litigation. They facilitate global business opportunities, allowing easy access to international markets. Lastly, many offshore locations have simplified regulatory compliance, making it easier to meet both local and international business requirements.
