Belize: Offshore Legal and Tax Regimes

Taxation of Foreign Employees of Offshore Operations

This section refers to the taxation of foreign employees of offshore operations, see Domestic Personal Taxes for the general principles of individual taxation in Belize, which also apply to the resident employees of offshore entities.

There is no distinction between foreign and Belizean employees, whether or not the business is 'offshore'. Tax is deducted under the 'PAYE' system, and there are compulsory social insurance contributions.
