Gibraltar Non-Resident Companies.
Offshore Haven in Gibraltar
|
 |
Gibraltar is a British Crown dependency and a full member of European Community, although it has been excluded from the European Common Agricultural Policy, VAT and Common Customs Union. This means that food products are cheaper, import duties are lower and Gibraltar is not obliged to levy VAT on goods and services.
Gibraltar legal system is similar to that of the United Kingdom and based on English Common Law.
Gibraltar is a perfect tax haven. To enjoy the benefits a non-resident company incorporated in Gibraltar should observe the following conditions:
it should be owned by non-residents of Gibraltar;
it should be managed and controlled by directors who reside and hold meetings outside of Gibraltar;
is should not maintain bank account within Gibraltar.

Some advantages of Gibraltar non-resident companies |
- A Gibraltar non-resident company is not liable to taxation in Gibraltar.
- Gibraltar has not concluded double taxation agreements with other nations. This means that no information is exchanged with other countries fiscal authorities.
- Incorporation and running of the company is simpler and more cost-effective than in many other offshore jurisdictions.
- Gibraltar is a reputable finance center within the European Union. Companies incorporated there compare favorably to those registered in purely offshore jurisdictions.
