Now offshore and low tax jurisdictions are not a real opportunity to legally increase the profitability of your business. In these countries, although the procedure for registering companies is simplified, there are no currency restrictions and, most importantly, there are no taxes for companies registered in offshore jurisdictions, however, modern banks and partners are too cautious about such companies.
The low cost of registering a company offshore and servicing companies is not an additional argument in favor of using this tool. As a result of the global trend of de-offshorization, offshore companies, are being used less and are considered not prestigious and not a viable solution. Offshore in many jurisdictions also does not allow you to open a corporate account and take advantage of reputable banks and other financial institutions.
A transparent European company instead of an offshore
Classic offshore companies are becoming a thing of the past. Automatic exchange of tax information between countries, economic substance requirements and strict bank compliance mean that companies from Belize, the Seychelles or Panama struggle to open bank accounts, and their payments are increasingly delayed or blocked.
The up-to-date alternative is a company in North Macedonia: a transparent European jurisdiction, a NATO member and an EU candidate country with one of the lowest corporate income tax rates in Europe. Such a company operates fully legally, and banks and partners see it as an ordinary European business, not an offshore.
Urban Consult specialists will choose the best legal form, register the company, help open a bank account and complete tax registration. After registration we keep supporting your business: accounting, residence permit renewals and timely updates on changes in legislation.
