Residents
of the Isle of Man are excluded from participation
in the most attractive offshore company forms,
and pay tax on their world-wide income. However,
the maximum rate of 18% (being reduced in stages
to 10%) is not penal, and there are no other taxes
to speak of, so that they can benefit from offshore
investment to a reasonable degree.
Non-residents
of the island (which includes the owners of
local properties as long as they don't spend
more than four months a year there) can make
full use of the offshore investment vehicles
available. Non-residents pay tax on locally-sourced
income, but this excludes most types of income
and capital gain in the offshore sector.
For
full information on the available types of corporate
entity, fees payable and the taxation system
in the Isle of Man, see the Isle
of Man Fact-File.
The
main types of investment available through the
