| Indian Resident: Want to open a trading company in Hong Kong? or UAE? |
Hi,
I am from India. I buy goods from China and sell them all over the world. I would like to open a trading company abroad in Hong Kong or UAE so I can directly export from China without bringing goods into India. Can someone advise me how can i go about it? What would the tax implications be for me india. We have very strict Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA) here in india. By no means am i trying to evade tax, just it would just be convenient to directly export from China. Jilu81 |

| Future of offshore trust industry |
How are offshore Trust Companies doing recently with recent development of Obama's track down and Canada Revenue Agency's increased scrutiny. Are they declining in their clients and revenues? Are they consolidating or closing down? Respectively, are they kicking out Canadian and American clients or are they squeezed out from providing anonymous trusts and merely holding onto a fraction service capability as an asset protection device?
Is there a still future for offshore trust companies? Do you see this industry is set to decline permanently?

| World-Check and similar |
Dear Experts,
I am an expatriate doing business within legal scope in different countries of the world utilizing different IBC vehicles for international trading and one European Ltd Company with VAT registration for trading with/within E.C.
Lately I am being confronted with strange situations like bank acc/s in different places of the world where I am BO and/or signatory being closed withing short notice time or banks and revenue departments asking much more questions about supporting documents or nature of business than I am used to. Is there a chance to see whether my name or name of one of my vehicles might have gotten into 'red flag' worldwide databases?
I once heard about databases like WORLD-CHECK or similar who keep records maybe e.g. even about your unpaid speeding fines in Singapore and the Canadian immigration or bank clerk would see that and might nag you for that.
Is there a chance to get a report from these databases?
Maybe I got into such a database by mistake or by false suggestion me to be a Bad Guy?
Thank you for any help.

| 3 months in 4 countries |
Hello. I am currently a resident of Spain, but when I stop work, I plan to spend 3 months in 4 different places (a priori Thailand, Brazil, Morocco, Florida). 3 months because this normally means you do not need much of a visa, you normally do not get to be a tax resident, ...and you don't get bored.
I assume I will have to chose a place to be a tax resident in, but my idea is that it can be a place like Panama or similar where I do not need to reside.
I understand that the pension I would get from Spain might be taxed in origin, but my money which is offshore and which would be my main source of revenue would not be taxed.
Do you think this makes sense ?
Also if you have any view on how one can organise yourself in terms of splitting the year in 4 countries, I will gladly hear it. Madrid |

| Country with no personal income tax on foreign dividends |
| I have business income from Norway. I currently have a Belize company which owns a UK Holding company which in turn owns the Norwegian companies. I am happy paying the corporate tax of 28% in Norway. I want to move to a country that will not charge personal income tax on any dividends that I receive from the Belize offshore company. I hold a UK passport but have never lived in the UK. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks |

| Bank for Gaming Industry / Merchant Account |
I am looking for Banks / Merchant Broker or Payment Gateways for processing funds resulting from Gambling Websites.
I have several Online Gambling Companies who are constantly looking for new partners who can process funds from their large turnovers in the Gaming Industry.
Since large banks, eg Barclays, Deutsche Bank, Santander or UBS step back from processing Gambling related funds because of several reasons ( bad reputation, fraud protection and money laundry ) the need for "open minded" banks or payment gateways is enormous.
The procedure is easy and difficult at the same time: gambling sites need processing of their client payments which are done by visa / mastercard or amex.
Anybody has an idea or can help me?
Thanks in advance,
Tom

| Offshore Company Formation and Bank Account |
Hi,
I wish to setup an Offshore company and get a basic Business Banking account with Internet+Phone+VISA card facility.
I mainly do online business and most of them don't need VAT. So VAT is not my requirement.
All I need is the least expensive Offshore company formation and least expensive Bank account.
I've been doing research for sometime and narrowed down on few choices:
IBC: Belize, Marshall Islands, Isle of Man
Bank: Isle of Man, Latvia
For banking again I need a basic bank account with very less initial deposit and fee.
Could anyone suggest me any affordable solution?
I see that company formation services are so expensive. It takes 40 odd quid to register UK company.
Any help will be appreciated.
Most of my businesses are online and I end up paying huge UK Corporation tax which can be easily saved by setting IBC and Offshore bank account. Jack |

| Repatriation of funds/profits held by offshore entities |
Hi there, I've read alot about the benefits of offshore structures, but I haven't found much information regarding the repatriation of funds/profits held offshore. Can you share with me your experiences and ways in which this might be accomplished (legally of course!) without compromising privacy, and minimising (or negating) tax implications onshore? Obviously this would be dependent on your onshore jurisdiction, but I'm hoping there will be common senarios regardless.
I have looked in to the use of debit cards (for smaller amounts), loans, invoicing...
Cheers.

| Opening the company - photo and video production |
Good morning. I'm looking for advice. I'm planning to open offshore company with bank account. I'm producing photo and video material for my clients situated mostly in US and Europe and some of that material is adult (around 50%). I know several people who produce only adult material mostly for web sites and have Cyprus companies. So, my company will produce material, mostly in Europe, EU and East Europe, sell it online and by bank wire transfer and maybe in future publish/distribute some material on DVDs and online.
I'm looking the way how to reduce cost on taxes and other expenses, but also need to be able to do business without problem and to be able to make payment which is accepted for my partners (e.g. model agency, location costs etc.).
It is not important for me where company is opened, if I have to pay some small fees to government or will initial cost be few hundreds of dollars more or less, but need to do my business without problem (as will be producing adult material also) and also have less as possible paperworks (complicated tax and accounting books).
Regards and thanks in advance who ever answers.

| New Company - Tax & Regulation |
Hi. I'm trying to setup a company, here are my dilemas. I'm an introducing broker for several US/UK brokers - I introduce clients to these brokerages (f.e. fxcm.com) and I get a commission compensation for each trade that client makes in that brokerage. In my country I need a licence to do this (EU country)- here to provide investment services of some company (f.e. US fxcm) company has to be regulated by some EU institution. In USA it's fine to do it without licence. I would like to start a company somewhere where I could do this without having to acquire licence. I was considering Dominica, where company would introduce Dominica non-resident, not citizien clients to f.e. fxcm. I think this should be fine using current business model.
My second dilema is tax. I would be the only owner and director of such company. Therefore all profits that company makes are after paying off the fees for company my profits. Dominica doesn't have EU Savings Tax Agreements, what basically means the info about me shouldn't be passed on to EU authorities. Do you know... is Dominica to take a part on this Agreements? Even if they would... what does that as for owner of the company means? Let's say I'm not taking any salary from the company and I own 100% of company. Then any profit that co. makes... is that my income? Do I have to pay a tax from this here in EU? Whether Dominica is part of this EU STA or not...? What tax duties do I as the owner of such company have (besides paying the fees)?
And my last question... would I need the licence in Dominica to manage clients money? I'm not talking about a fund, I would only be managing client's account opened at some brokerage (f.e. fxcm) based on an authorization that client gives me by signing Limited Power of Attorney to place spot forex trades to trading account carried in his name. I don't think I need the licence for this (it's just LPOA and money is on client's own account) just want to make sure.
Thanks for all responses John |

| Offshore Company Trading with Indonesia |
I want to set up an Offshore company, which will be owned by UK/EU investors, and which will borrow from a bank in order to buy machinery for use in preparing coal for sale to end users.
The machinery will be chartered on a long-term basis to an Indonesian operating company, which will provide services to coal mine owners and/or their customers. The Offshore company will receive charter fees and a profit share from the Indonesian operating company. These will be subject to Indonesian Withholding Tax at the rate of 20%, unless there is a Double Tax Treaty. To benefit from reduced WHT rates under the DTT, the Offshore company would probably need to meet tough Indonesian requirements regarding genuine commercial activities in the chosen jurisdiction. These requirements will be difficult to meet.
The ideal jurisdiction for the Offshore company would have (1) low corporate tax rates (2) the ability to offset/recover Indonesian WHT in part or in full (3) low taxes on dividends distributed to shareholders, and (4) minimal administrative hassle in terms of local directors, audit and filing requirements.
Can someone suggest a suitable jurisdiction, please? |

| working abroad for my own IBC |
| Right now, I am working as a bookkeeper at a company in The Netherlands, and my boss has offered me the opportunity to 'keep my job' while working abroad through the internet. I would love to travel around the world for some years, staying for some months in each country. I will give up my residence here in The Netherlands (sell my home etc.) I know that it is tricky to work in other countries on tourist visas, but I was thinking that starting an offshore company (IBC) could be a solution. The IBC bills our company in The Netherlands, whereas I receive my income taxfree from the IBC (or maybe only through dividends?). Could this be a workable solution and what are the risks?? Thank you all in advance for your help! Mr. Me |

| Offshore corporate home with minimal reporting |
I'm a Canadian citizen & resident operating a small online business that has staff around the world (Canada, USA, Europe, Australia, Asia) and clients around the world as well. Most of our revenue is from the USA. Our shareholders are also spread out around the world (although I am the majority owner).
We're currently registered in Canada, however dealing with the Canadian tax authorities is becoming a hassle. I actually don't mind the taxes that much, but the reporting requirements and audits (we've been audited twice now, both time they found that we owed no money, but each audit cost us money and wasted lot of time) are a huge annoyance.
I'd be interested in relocating the company to a country that has low taxes for offshore business (revenue earned outside the country) and, most importantly, minimal reporting requirements (ie: paperwork).
I intend to pay my personal income taxes legally and appropriately in my country of residence (which may be changing shortly).
Any suggestions. |
