Offshore business in Seychelles:

Seychelles is located in the Indian Ocean near the Mauritius Island and not so far from Madagascar. This archipelago of 115 islands is one of the top offshore destination worldwide offering security and a lot of financial benefits. Seychelles which used to be under British dominance has a very business oriented legislation because based on the English model. The laws there are much more flexible and modern than in the European Union which is a strong asset and motivates many foreign investors in moving their business into this jurisdiction. Also, the new recently voted tax reforms are increasing the interests of this jurisdiction and are a proof of the willingness of the government to enhance its dominant position.

The main reasons to either open an offshore bank account or to incorporate an offshore company in Seychelles are:

• No corporate tax on profit (for non-resident)
• No tax on dividend
• No VAT
• 100% guaranteed banking secrecy
• Full anonymity and non disclosure of the identity of business owners
• No minimum share capital
