BVI companies and corporate services with OMC Group? The main advantages of registering an offshore company in the British Virgin Islands are as follows: Tax exemption is legal in the BVI and the jurisdiction applies the territorial taxation system. This means that no taxes are due if the resident company does not make any income in the territory of the BVI. The application of this taxation system is going to continue in the foreseeable future while some other offshore jurisdictions are increasing the tax burden on business companies registered there.
Banking Business has the meaning specified in section 2(1) of the Banks and Trust Companies Act, 1990, to wit: “banking business” means the business of accepting deposits of money which may be withdrawn or repaid on demand or after a fixed period or after notice, by cheque or otherwise and the employment of such deposits, either in whole or in part, (a) in making or giving loans, advances, overdrafts, guarantees or similar facilities, or (b) the making of investments, for the account and at the risk of the person accepting such deposits.
Continuation: The BVI BC Act establishes that a company, which desires to continue its operations under the jurisdiction of the BVI, will have to file satisfactory evidence that the law of the foreign country allows the migration of the company. Economic Substance Act: The BVI (“the British Virgin Islands”), along with other major offshore jurisdictions, introduced the Economic Substance Law. The BVI Economic Substance (Companies and Limited Companies) ACT, 2018 came into effect on January 1, 2019. Companies incorporated as of January 1, 2019, must comply immediately with the law. The transition period extended until June 30, 2019, to entities established before January 1, 2019. This in response to the various efforts of the European Union (“EU”) and the Organization for the Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) to improve fiscal transparency. EveryBC must have a Registered Office and a qualified Registered Agent in the BVI. Number and Classes of Shares: The “authorized capital” and “share capital” concept, as we know it, no longer exist under the BVI BC Act. The BVI BC Act specifies the requirement for the Memorandum to state the maximum number of shares that the company is authorized to issue. Read additional information at BVI Economic Substance.
If you aim for the former group, you should consider everything carefully. Some no-tax jurisdictions are changing their policies fast. They are starting to impose taxes and regulations on certain kinds of income and business activities. And some places have a really bad reputation in the business world. These are the ones you should avoid. Bad-reputation jurisdictions would cost you a hard time opening a bank account and running your company. In particular, banks in Singapore or Hong Kong are very concerned about opening an account for companies in tax havens. The same goes with customers and clients. They would also be concerned to do business with your company if it is incorporated in such jurisdictions.
