Although
residents of Gibraltar pay reasonably high income
taxes, and there is estate duty, there are several
tax-efficient mechanisms for making investments
through Gibraltar.
Non-residents
are taxable on their income received in Gibraltar,
but not if it is channelled through a trust
or an exempt
company (although exempt companies are in the
process of being phased out, and will have been
removed completely as a corporate vehicle by
2010). Also bank interest is exempt from tax,
although the EU's Savings Tax Directive, which
came into effect in July, 2005, means that payments
of interest and other savings returns made to
EU citizens are reported totheir home tax authorities.
Residents
have traditionally been able to make use of
High Net-Worth
Individual (HNWI) status, and some expatriate
executives were given tax-privileged regimes;
in both cases the total tax bill was capped,
so that additional income over the cap was free
of tax.
High
Net-Worth Individuals have traditionally been
permitted to hold shares in an exempt company,
and to hold deposits in Gibraltar banks; income
from these sources has only been taxable (for
the company) if paid to the HNWI for his own
use in Gibraltar.
(NB:
In
July 2002 Gibraltar's Chief Minister, Peter
Caruana announced a new corporate taxation policy,
which was updated again in 2007, following a
long-running dispute with the European Union.
See Direct Company Taxation
for full details.)
