The investor should take advantage of the tax planning process, allowing to increase safety and confidentiality of the assets, as well as to save, legally, on taxes. The international businessman has more choices and should use an offshore company or a more complex combination to make business, avoiding or lowering taxes. The starting point is the jurisdiction of the head company, then of the examination of the process needed to fulfil the procedures like international commerce or trading of commodities which as targeted for this kind of activity. We have agreement with large consulting and law companies in Europe, Africa and Asia to provide the more accurate advices for the international entrepreneur and companies, in full confidentiality.
Tax treaties: double taxation treaties have many applications, some for the private individual, and other for the company. The investor and the business benefit from a wise choice to attain the low tax objective, without risk. This is applicable in Europe, North and South America, Africa, Asia and Oceania. In the exceptional absence of any double treaty for a specific use, the use of an offshore company, holding, trust or foundation will ease the process and lead to the tax planning solution. For the corporate use, the transfer pricing methodology will apply to companies willing to export or to import goods, often without touching the goods themselves, shipped from one country to another.
Offshore structures: for the international businessman, the use of an offshore company will avoid to pay any tax, as well as book-keeping, audit and reporting. For the trading of commodities or operations of commerce, a European holding, or a several companies combination will allow a low tax rate (3 to 5%) on these operations. Our service offers the offshore company and the corporate bank account in the same jurisdiction, as well as the selection of the best European holding for a specific use. If a company is willing to trade with India, a Mauritius or Seychelles offshore company could be used, with an Indian company on location acting as agent while the correspondance and invoicing is the duty of the offshore company. In Europe, a Cyprus holding will carry the same duty, in addition of European or offshore companies to complete the scheme.
