WHY BVI
A stable, well-understood jurisdiction
The BVI remains the most widely used offshore corporate domicile in the world, built on English common law and a regulator with a long track record. The fundamentals haven’t changed. What has changed is the compliance layer around them, which is where we do the work.
- No corporate income tax, capital gains tax or withholding tax on BVI Business Companies
- US dollar currency, no exchange controls
- English common law system, with appeal rights to the Privy Council in London
- Member of the Hague Apostille Convention
- Rated “Largely Compliant” by the OECD Global Forum on transparency and exchange of information
- Removed from the EU’s list of non-cooperative tax jurisdictions in 2020
BVI structures are not “set and forget.” Economic Substance, beneficial ownership reporting (BOSS) and annual government fees all carry deadlines and penalties for missing them. See the Knowledge Centre for the current rules.
