It may surprise you to learn that the NUMBER ONE reason for people moving money offshore is NOT because of tax benefits but asset protection. Today's predaceous and litigious society unfortunately makes successful people vulnerable to lawsuits of every kind.

About Jersey

Jersey, covering 45 square miles, offers a great climate, Gaelic style, French flavor but everyone speaks English! These are just a few of many reasons the Island of Jersey is attractive for offshore investors. Jersey has more great restaurants, award-winning museums and beautifully restored historical sites per square mile than anywhere else. The climate being much warmer and sunnier than mainland Britain allows visitors to take advantage of an abundance of outdoor activities including, hiking, biking, horseback riding, sailing, fishing, windsurfing, bird-watching and golfing.

Jersey has over 50 miles of beautiful coastline. Golden sweeps of sand fringe each coast, except the north, where small harbors nestle amongst the dramatic cliffs. Secluded beaches for relaxing, beaches with water-sports and cafes, and rocky coves to explore. For the year 2000, 7 beaches have been awarded the Marine Conservation Society's highest award for water cleanliness; Beauport, Archirondel, Portelet, St.Brelade's Bay, Le Braye (St Ouen's), Water-splash (St Ouen's) and Greve de Lecq.

Jersey The Prime Offshore Jurisdiction

Generally, with the exception of customs duties and judicial stamp duties, the only taxation levied in Jersey is exempt tax and income tax. There are no capital taxes.

Companies incorporated in Jersey may fall into any one of the following tax categories:

  1. Exempt tax company, subject to a flat rate tax charge of £600 per annum;
  2. Resident income tax company, subject to Jersey tax at the rate of 20% on its profits;
  3. International business company, subject to Jersey tax at 2% or lower on its international business, with a minimum liability of £1200 per annum.

Facts about Jersey:

  • Fast track incorporations make it possible to incorporate a company in less than two hours.

  • There are no capital gains taxes, estate or inheritance duties nor are there any value-added taxes (VAT) or sales taxes in Jersey.

  • Any company incorporated in Jersey that is neither exempt company nor an International Business Company (IBC) is an Income Tax Company and pays tax in Jersey on its worldwide income at a rate of 20 %. Jersey has full taxation treaties with Guernsey and the UK.

Disclosures

Information regarding the beneficial owner must also be submitted, but is not disclosed outside the Commission. There must be at least two directors for a public company (one for a private company) who must be individuals but may be of any nationality. A company secretary must also be appointed. The share capital of a company may be of any amount in any currency but bearer shares are not permitted. The minimum number of shareholders is two of any lity. Ready-made "shelf" companies are not available, but in 1994 fast track incorporations introduced, allowing formation of a Jersey company in less than two hours.

Exempt companies

Under Jersey law, an exempt company pays income 'tax only on Jersey-source income other than interest arising from Jersey bank and building society deposits (no tax on income arising outside the island). An exempt company is not considered a resident in Jersey and residents of Jersey can have no ownership interest in the company. However, locally resident nominees or trustees acting in those capacities for the benefit of non-residents may hold shares in an exempt company.

IBCs

An IBC is taxed on profits international operations depending on the level of profit. IBCs are not allowed to made locally. Despite being owned by a on-resident, an IBC, unlike an exempt company, is resident in Jersey for tax purposes (except in the case of local branches of overseas companies) but pays Jersey income tax at substantially reduced rates. IBCs are of also of particular use for companies which have international operations as they provide a tax efficient structure for a range of off- shore activities such as import/export, international finance and also insurance business.

They are quite regularly used in connection with double taxation agreements with other countries which require that traders pay a certain amount of tax in their jurisdiction.

Mailing, Fax, Telephone And Office Facilities: As part of the domiciliary service fee we provide clients with a registered office address in the country of incorporation but clients may find it convenient to arrange for mail forwarding, fax and telephone facilities through our Switzerland, The Bahamas Islands, London or other Petro Funds world-wide offices. This service may be especially useful where, for example, the company is opening bank accounts. Normally the bank would address statements and other correspondence to the company at the address of the client but this results in a loss of confidentiality in that the connection between the company name and the client will be automatically made.

To safeguard against this mail can be directed to our offices and we can re-mail those letters in a plain envelope addressed to the client or otherwise as the client directs. An additional advantage of using our re-mailing services is that the provision of a re-mailing address through one of our prestigiously located offices in the onshore jurisdictions may allow the offshore company to appear to be domiciled on-shore and thereby give that company an added degree if respectability.

For example, your offshore company could quote Petro Funds London office address on its letterhead and thereby appear to be domiciled in the UK. This procedure is particularly attractive if the Hong Kong address is used as a Hong Kong company is not required to quote its registered office address on its letterhead. Thus if an offshore company were to quote a Hong Kong address it would be indistinguishable from the letterhead, from a normal Hong Kong trading company. The charge for this service is only $275 per annum.

Trust Services: Using a trust to own the shares of an offshore company can result in very substantial tax and non-tax related advantages which will accrue both on death and during the lifetime of the trust settler. These advantages may include:

Saving Of Inheritance Tax: On death, the Inheritance tax which would normally be assessed on the value of shares would generally be eradicated.

Asset Protection: Assets placed into trust are generally beyond the reach of creditors who might arise as a result of financial difficulties, divorce proceedings, litigation, etc.

Avoidance Of Probate: A trust provides a means whereby assets can be smoothly passed on to the next generation without the disruption, delays substantial costs, loss of confidentiality associated with the probate procedure which necessarily follows when assets are bequeathed by will.

Continuity: Trusts provide a means whereby assets can continue to be administered in accordance with the wishes of the settlor after his death so the weak can be protected from others and the spend-thrift can be protected from himself.

Lifetime Tax Savings: During lifetime, substantial income and capital gains tax advantages may result from setting up the trust. Using the service of one of our licensed trust companies, we are pleased to act as trustee for a suitably drafted discretionary trust and the cost of this service would be from US$500 for setting up the trust deed and from US$500 per annum for the provision of trustee services.
