Офшорные зоны | Оффшорные зоны | Оффшоры и международное право

Полный перечень оффшорных (офшорных) и оншорных зон, сгруппированных по географическому признаку (все страны распределнены по девяти регионам. Оффшорные (офшорные) зоны упомянуты дважды: в регионе своего реального географичекого положения и в условной группе «оффшорные (офшорные) зоны»), представлен в виде краткой сравнительной таблицы. Для более детального сравнения до трех территорий между собой или же компаний различных организационно-правовых форм, зарегистрированных в одной стране пользуйтесь таблицей сравнения оффшорных (офшорных) юрисдикций. >>

Безусловно, мы лукавим относя к оффшорным ( или следуя правилам русского языка, офшорным с одной «ф» ) такие оншорные зоны, которые не подходят под классическое определение офшорных зон – как Великобритания и США. И уж тем более невозможно назвать оффшором таких рьяных борцов с налоговым планированием как Германия и Франция.

Но, коль скоро, деятельность по международному налоговому планированию выходит далеко за пределы традиционных оффшорных зон мы и посвящаем настоящий радел обзорам корпоративного и налогового законодательства (а также ценам, корпоративным документам, международным соглашениям и многому другому) ста стран (юрисдикций) на всех континентах.

Мы ставили себе задачу максимум – предложить искушенному предпринимателю исчерпывающий набор сведений по ЛЮБОЙ стране, попадающей в его круг интересов (в обоих Америках, Азии и Африке, Австралии и конечно в Европе)

Однако, для простоты изложения мы назвали наш труд «Энциклопедия оффшорных зон», однако ж не только офшорным зонам она посвящена

Оффшорные зоны

В этом разделе вы найдете именно ОФФШОРНЫЕ (офшорные) зоны в классическом их понимании. Однако эти же страны могут Вам встретиться и в тех регионах мира, к которым они относятся вследствии своего географического положения. Так, Гонконг вы встретите также в категории Юго-Восточная Азия, а Британские Виргинские Острова – в регионе Южная и Латинская Америка

Западная Европа

Западная Европа вряд ли может похвастаться обилием офшорных зон, однако же Гернси, Джерси, Остров Мэн, Гибралтар, Мальта, Монако, Андорра и Лихтенштейн вполне являются классическими и традиционными представителями офшорных зон. Да и Швейцарию с некоторой натяжкой продолжают относить к оффшорам

Восточная Европа

Пожалуй, лишь Венгрия среди стран восточной Европы может похвастаться статусом оффшорной зоны, да и то помятуя о ее доевропейском прошлом. Тогда, до вступления в ЕС, Венгрия практиковала режим офшорного налогообложения компаний, не ведущих деятельность в стране. Однако же и Словакия начинает проявлять признаки, по которым ее можно использовать для целей международного налогового планирования, хотя оффшорной зоной ее никак не назовешь

Разве что Эстония предлагает льготный режим налогообложения, при котором не облагается налогом на прибыль нераспределенная прибыль, однако этот фактор не относит страну к оффшорным зонам. А Латвия в контексте оффшоров широко известна лишь банкам, работающим с любой страной из списка офшорных зон

Ближний Восток

Объединенные Арабские Эмираты, будучи рассмотренными отдельно (Дубаи, Шарджа, Джабаль-Али и др) представляют собой классические оффшорные зоны, где-то осложненные обременением в виде необходимости аренды складских или офисных помещений, что делает их больше похожими на Свободные Экономические Зоны, нежели на оффшорные зоны

Южная и Юго-Восточная Азия

Вектор интереса к оффшорам постепенно смещается из Европы в Азию. Именно здесь на сегодняшний день находится второе по плотности локазизации «скопление» оффшорных зон. Гонконг и Макао, хотя и относятся по юрисдикции к Китаю, однако по всем признакам продолжают считаться к оффшорным зонам. Сингапур (Юго-Азиатская Швейцария) – сейчас не менее популярная оффшорная зона чем ее западноевропейский прообраз

США & Канада

Только сложность американского налогового законодательства, а также некомпетентность ряда оффшор-провайдеров позволяли относить некоторые штаты США к офшорным зонам. Делавэр и Невада, Вайоминг и Вашингтон далеко не столь просты, чтобы предоставлять оффшорные льготы «направо и налево».

90000 definition, international cooperation, and current trends 90001 90002 Financial crises never stop weakening the world economy, and debt liabilities of some countries have long ago exceeded the billion dollar mark. In this never ending chaos, the entrepreneurs and the potential investors of the leading world powers do not stop trying to find the tools for optimization and reduction of the existing tax burden. 90003 90004 International resistance to the companies in tax havens 90005 90002 The tendency of resistance and implementation of the effective methods of tax optimization had originated at the beginning of 2000s, when the authorities of such countries as Great Britain, the USA, Germany, and France drew their attention to the fact that the withdrawal of the financial assets outside their economies significantly reduced the revenues in the budget.Then the pursuit of the capitals, which flew into offshores, was started, and as a result, they introduced the number of international standards and actions. 90003 90004 Offshore zone definition and types 90005 90002 At first, we should provide a definition of the concept of an offshore jurisdiction. In fact, an offshore zone is a specialized territory, which provides different competitive advantages and corporate privileges for the companies that have no tax resident status. In the international practice, offshore zones exist everywhere.These can be small island countries, separate administrative and territorial units with special economic status or even the entire countries. 90003 90002 If we look at the official statistics, about one hundred international financial centers, which provide the possibility of registration of companies and legal entities in tax havens exist around the world. As a rule, the attractiveness of such jurisdictions is provided by a loyal tax climate and a simplified procedure of incorporation of a foreign company.90003 90002 At the same time, the current international practice divides the tax haven zones into two conventional categories, respectively, midshore and classic offshore zones. The classic tax haven zones provide the full exemption from such forms of taxation as the capital-gains tax, dividend tax, interests, inheritance and gift tax, income tax and etc. 90003 90002 Midshores, are the modern jurisdictions, which have taken the best international experience. Flexible corporate law and low tax rate are typical for midshores.Typically, these are the counties, which seek the maximal tax transparency at the expense of tax and financial reporting of the business. These jurisdictions include a number of European countries, like Malta, Cyprus, the Netherlands, and Sweden. 90003 90004 International cooperation and general tendencies 90005 90002 As it was mentioned above, the initiative of opposition to the tax haven jurisdictions was first announced by the representatives of Great Britain and the United States.If to appeal to history, one can find that the first offshore formations had appeared on the planet after Britain had granted independence to its colonies, which in their turn had to look for the ways to attract the direct foreign investments into the economy. The numerous island entities were on the verge of extinction and had to become home for the various tax-free companies. 90003 90002 According to the results of the independent research over the past forty years, the budget of the UK has lost more than 30 trillion dollars, which were withdrawn into the tax haven jurisdictions.Taking into account these figures, the enthusiasm of the UK to fight against the capital outflow becomes clear. 90003 90002 Experts say that this year can become a turning point in the fight against the tax haven jurisdictions. Many are inclined to believe that it’s time to return the assets, which were withdrawn from the national economy. At the same time, the experts are convinced that it will be impossible to terminate all the offshore mechanisms and schemes completely, as they are closely intertwined not only with the private business but also with public companies.But still, the hunting for tax haven is announced. 90003 90002 The financial crisis, which has erupted in the United States and smoothly spread to the countries of Europe, has become a basic catalyst, which serves as the accelerator of the international cooperation in the fight against tax havens. The worsening economic situation has become a major impetus for various international organizations, including the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). The activity of such organizations is reflected not only in the implementation of control over the business but also in the development and regulations and the requirements of the financial transparency to the tax haven jurisdictions.90003 90002 All the work of international organizations is guided and based on the one principle — if there is a possibility to trace the chains of the offshore schemes of business, the return of the hidden taxes is fairly real. Annually, the international organizations report billions of Euros, that they have managed to return to the budgets of the various countries. 90003 90004 International organization and «black offshore zone lists» 90005 90002 The first steps in the international arena in the fight against the tax haven jurisdictions were taken by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development.This organization has identified the list of the signs which can identify the unreliable jurisdictions, which are not able to provide adequate supervision over the financial sector. Such countries were put on the special lists, which had got an unofficial name «black zone lists.» 90003 90002 Besides, now there is a so-called «grey zone list,» which is maintained by the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering (FATF). The countries from this list are not tax havens in the classic sense of the term.But they also do not support some international standards which are set to fight against the tax havens. 90003 90002 Speaking about the conventional «black zone lists,» it is important to note that every country also has its own list of the offshore jurisdictions. 90003 90004 Alternative players in the international arena 90005 90002 Various organizations, which stand to the principles of the resistance to the outflows and money laundering, appear more and more often in the international arena.Among them, the special attention can be given to such organization as the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists. This organization has lirerally announced the hunt for the clients of the tax haven jurisdictions. 90003 90002 For example, some years ago, the consortium has published an extensive database which contains information about more than hundreds of thousands of the tax haven trusts and companies. This publishing had drawn considerable public attention, as it had revealed to the world the relationships of the wealthy people of our planet: officials, public servants, and prominent politicians.90003 90002 Later, the international consortium has published the database of one of the offshore banks in Jersey. It was talked about the names of 20 thousands clients of the bank. 90003 90002 Thus, the resistance to the tax haven jurisdictions gains its momentum and is increasing in all the directions. But still, nobody has made any official assertions of the prohibition of the operation of offshore zones for the optimization of the taxable base. 90003 90004 Deoffshorization of the economy 90005 90002 In terms of deoffshorization, the regulatory tool, which is used by countries, has always been aimed at the maximum reduction of the tax burden and the secrecy of information about the business.The reasons for such treatment can be found in recent history. Tax havens were used as a tool for the protection of financial assets, and tax incentives were a pleasant supplement. 90003 90002 In spite of all measures, which were taken by governments, the tax haven areas and companies remain to be a part of any economy. Billions of US dollars are transferred into the various offshore jurisdictions annually. Among the most popular tax havens, there are Switzerland, Cyprus, the UK, and the Netherlands.90003 90002 Nevertheless, the countries do not wait quietly and take the various preventive measures, among which the adoption of the legislative acts, which regulate the national contract system, can be singled out. This law puts certain restrictions. For example, the companies in tax havens are not allowed to take part in public purchases. Even the disclosure of all the information about the ultimate beneficiaries of the company will not be a guarantee of receiving a government contract.90003 90002 The extent of deoffshorization can be debated endlessly, and the preventive measures can vary in different forms: from the explicit stimulation to the strictest enforcement of the taxpayers. But still, in order for business not to strive for offshore jurisdictions, it we must understand that it is much better at home. The withdrawal of the financial assets into the tax havens should become costly and pointless for entrepreneurs. Only then one can hope to maintain financial assets.Unfortunately, the countries are unable to provide such conditions for business today, so business is still offered sticks instead of carrots. 90003 90004 How to withstand, or time requirements 90005 90002 Of course, the pleasant time when offshore jurisdictions attracted only entrepreneurs, has long gone. But the tax haven jurisdictions do not stand still. The modern economy enforces the offshore jurisdictions to change and to adapt to the existing standards. A lot of tax haven areas are forced to yield to pressure from the world leaders and now widely implement the transparency requirements to the business schemes.90003 90002 In addition to the tax haven jurisdictions itself, the banking institutions, which work in tax havens, are also exposed to pressure from the state and are liable to the relatively high taxation. It is not a secret that the offshore banks are the main element in the construction of the tax haven schemes. 90003 90004 Examples: 90005 90002 Since 2000, the U.S. Government has adopted a number of draft laws in the field of banking. Among them, there is a legislative act on the tax compliance of the accounts in foreign banks and the law on the provision of information about the available accounts in foreign banks.90003 90002 In other words, the government of the country wants all the banking institutions in the world to provide the necessary information upon the request of the IRS. These requirements apply to the foreign bank accounts which belong to the citizens of the U.S. Access to the financial markets of the U.S. can be blocked for the banks and credit institutions which have refused to provide such information, and all the operations which held via the country will be liable to 30% tax. 90003 90002 A strategy, which was developed by the OECD in 2013, serves as the action plan of resistance to hiding the budget payments.One can say with certainty that this plan is a basic guide for the international resistance to the tax haven jurisdictions. 90003 90004 Strengthening the measures of control and the possible consequences 90005 90002 The system of offshore jurisdictions meets the common laws of marketing. More precisely, the laws, which operate in the common market, are equally applicable here. Namely, the bigger are production costs, the higher is the cost of the provided services. Accordingly, the increase of the requirements to the tax havens jurisdictions affects the proportional increase of requirements to the foreign businesses, which is registered in the jurisdiction.90003 90002 For example, today, to register the offshore company, it is not enough to submit only a passport, as it was ten years ago. Today, you will be required to submit a huge set of documents, which includes the letters of recommendation from banking institutions, the documents which prove the actual place of residence, a detailed business plan, information about the ultimate beneficiaries, the founders, the shareholders , and the company owners, etc. 90003 90002 In attempts to save the business reputation in the international arena, the regulators of the tax haven areas are guided by the principle — know your client.As a result, the foreign entrepreneurs are forced not only to collect the necessary documents but also to be engaged in their translation, certification, and legalization. 90003 90002 If you are going to create an effective tax havens scheme, you should be prepared for the fact that you will have to work hard. In order to create a really effective and efficient scheme with an appropriate corporate structure, you will have to establish not one offshore company. 90003 90002 In the end, you need a corporate account in a foreign bank, the opening of which also requires a responsible approach.Modern banking institutions also care about their reputation and are wary about the tax havens. First of all, you need to decide on a banking institution, or to be more precise, to find out the list of provided services and current rates. 90003 90002 Do you want to learn more about the tax issues in the various tax havens jurisdictions, about the possibility of registering a company and bank account in a tax haven?

The perfect example is offshore zones in the UAE. Opening an offshore company in the Arabic Emirates, you get a complete tax freedom, absence of financial reporting and foreign exchanges control and also high level of confidentiality.90003 90006 How did offshore zones appear? 90007 90002 The wish not to pay taxes appeared almost simultaneously with the trade development. Even in antique time, Phoenician traders found a way to avoid sales duties by selling goods outside the walls of cities with high taxes. The name of term «offshore» is also derived from that and means «outside the boarder». 90003 90002 In the Middle Ages traders sold wool not in England, where the taxes were too high, but in neighbouring Flanders. In the 18th century, traders from the Northern America bought and sold goods in countries of Latin America to avoid high duties in England.90003 90002 The notion of privacy of offshore companies appeared in Switzerland at the beginning of 18th century. Royal persons, who were Catholics, wanted to conceal from publicity the fact that they borrowed money from Protestants. That was the reason why the law about the protection of bank deposits and loans confidentiality was created in 1713. Since then and until now Swiss bankers has been keeping confidentiality of information about clients. 90003 90002 Switzerland has become the first offshore zone letting down the bars for purchase of currencies and giving banks possibility to make operations in other countries.Because of that, international companies could develop their activity and be sure in their personal data confidentiality. 90003 90002 In the middle of 20th century, offshores became not only the way of tax minimization, but also opened new possibilities for development of countries with weak economies. Liberia is an example. After it became independent from the USA, its economy underwent difficult times. However the government found the solution by opening an offshore zone. Foreign ships got the possibility to be registered in Liberia and sail under its flag, so the country could boost its economy by such means of income.90003 90002 At the same time, it is necessary to notice that today there are several dozens of offshore zones all around the world. They are divided into different categories in accordance with their rank, recognition and the most frequent usage for different purposes. For example, the above Liberia mentioned is mostly used for ships registration, and Guernsey is more common used for registration of financial management companies. 90003 90020 We will help you to open: 90021 Please enable JavaScript to view the comments powered by Disqus.comments powered by 90002 90002 90020 More articles from «Dubai & UAE business news»: 90021 90003 90003 .90000 Offshore — what is it? 90001 90002 Why there were offshores? What is it in practice? Why are they used? What preferences do people and countries get for resorting to their services? Here is an incomplete list of issues that will be considered in the framework of this article. 90003 90004 How did the offshore? 90005 90002 That this phenomenon can have ancient roots, littlewho guessed. And yet even then traders, in order to evade taxes, organized trade under the walls of city-states. «Offshore» can be translated as «outside the border».Similar could be observed in the Middle Ages, when the English wool was traded in Flanders, to get more benefits. Yes, and in modern times, you can find examples, take at least the colonists of the territory of the modern US, when there was still royal power. In order not to fall under the influence of English law, they entered into transactions in Latin American countries. 90003 90002 But in the modern sense they began to use this term only in the middle of the last century. That’s what the past has offshore.What can this give in practice to the state and business? 90003 90004 Offshore Zones 90005 90002 Every owner tries to getthe maximum profit. And in this he will be happy to help any specialized economic zone. In their capacity, developing countries (or their separate regions), where it was decided to create attractive conditions for foreign capital. If an economic zone is created, this ensures a reliable (although not very large in volume) tax and / or duty income. Also, thanks to this, the level of permanent employment of a smaller population rises.One of the features of offshore is the lack of requirements for tax reporting or a very small list of documents that must be submitted to the country’s authorities. 90003 90004 Offshore companies 90005 90002 This is a necessary tool for organizing a profitable business of this type. We have already disassembled what is directly offshore. The company also helps «in person». 90003 90002 Let’s say your company needssomething to buy abroad. In this process, an offshore company is used as an intermediary.It does not matter what was the original price. You can specify an arbitrary input cost. Even if a batch of expensive processors will be sold for one ruble, no one has the right to obstruct the deal. And this will save money on taxes. Of course, there are pitfalls that create customs legislation, but they can all be successfully circumvented or reduced their influence. 90003 90004 Blacklists 90005 90002 We already know many nuances that have offshore. What does this give to other states? They, in turn, are very disliked by these centers of international commerce.Therefore, lists of economic zones are created to tighten compliance with the rules and achieve some of their goals. Thus, the lists of the Russian Federation were drawn up to increase control over the movement of the currency, avoidance of the situation with a zero tax rate and complete avoidance of payment of taxes. From the moment when offshore became available for interaction, initially they were offered as an opportunity for tax optimization. Since then, they are used in virtually any type of activity.But such schemes can sometimes create precedents for the onset of responsibility (administrative or even criminal). Therefore, when using this tool, it is necessary to approach the matter carefully. 90003 90004 How are offshore companies registered? 90005 90002 Feature of these subjects is the ease andspeed of their creation. The already developed technologies allow creating necessary enterprises in a few moments. Another important feature is the right to confidentiality, that is, the offshore owner may remain unknown.This mechanism has its own nuances and features that can lead to the fact that the management of the company may be lost. The founder in this case are special secretarial offices, according to which it is very difficult to track the real owner (in reality one should only talk about confiscation of necessary documents or the introduction of «one’s own» person). 90003 90002 And how does the offshore registration take place? To do this, it is enough to apply to a company that specializes in the sale of special companies.It will avoid time and paperwork. 90003 90002 Of course, offshore registration is not a matter ofcheap. It will take at least several thousand US dollars. Perhaps, it will even go about the good ten. Subsequently, the fee will be lower, since it will only be necessary to pay a certain fee. Therefore, the offshore tool is solely used by medium-sized and large-scale businessmen. One of the features of such economic zones is the ban on the activities of registered companies within the country. This is done in order to avoid the «seizure» of offshore large international business.90003 p> .90000 What is an offshore zone? 90001 90002 Today, the concept of «offshore» becomes every daymore and more popular, its ubiquitous use, certainly, causes interest. If specialists from the sphere of economics and law are familiar with it very closely, then for ordinary citizens the meaning of this word does not always remain clear. 90003 90002 So, by definition, offshore representsa certain financial center that constantly attracts capital from abroad through the provision of special benefits and tax privileges to various types of companies.Offshore zones of the world are widely scattered territorially: Gibraltar, British Virgin Islands, Dominican Republic, Seychelles and even Russia. However, in our country such an economic arena has a slightly different name, namely, «Zone of preferential taxation». 90003 90002 Offshore zone.
