Marshall Islands for trading

The Marshall Islands is an offshore jurisdiction that is quite popular with entrepreneurs working with finance. In particular, many Forex startups choose this jurisdiction for themselves. You can often hear about the Marshall Islands as a kind of tax haven. This island state has become famous for its wide opportunities in terms of organizing and doing business, as well as the following advantages.

  1. Absence of regulation of activities, which means that the jurisdiction does not impose requirements and does not establish any separate rules regarding capital, employees, record keeping and so on.
  2. Possibility of completely remote registration of the company. Of the documents, only a scan of the passport and confirmation of the owner’s registration address will be required.
  3. You can register a company with or without nominee service.

Saint Vincent and the Grenadines

The exception is banking, trust, reinsurance and insurance activities. However, the jurisdiction offers favorable trading conditions and stands out due to the following advantages.

It is on the territory of this state that many of the largest American corporations operating in the field of trading and Forex are registered. The advantages of Delaware for establishing a business are as follows:

  • simple and clear regulation. There are no strict rules and regulations in state corporate law regarding the identity and identification of the director and secretary;
  • favorable tax regime. If the company does not operate and does not receive income from it directly in the state, taxes are not levied. Firms pay only a fixed franchise fee annually, but its amount is incomparably less compared to other states;
  • high level of confidentiality achieved through the permission to use denominations;
  • Delaware is not considered offshore anywhere in the world, even if it looks like offshore;
  • establishing a corporation in the state is inexpensive. Plus, it can be done completely remotely.

  2. Participants and management companies are reliably protected from the point of view of the law. Wyoming has some of the most stringent laws in the United States to protect members and senior members of organizations.
  3. There is no need and obligation to enter the data of the company’s employees into a public database. Thus, shareholders of corporations remain undisclosed to the state.
  4. No state taxes. There is no income tax levied on either individual entrepreneurs or companies.
  5. A company can have only one employee.
  6. Companies have the right to issue an unlimited number of shares of any denomination.

  1. Territorial principle of taxation: both local and foreign corporations pay income tax in relation to the income that was recognized as arising in Hong Kong or received from sources located in the jurisdiction.
  2. No taxation if doing business outside the country.
  3. Absence of such taxes as VAT, on dividends, royalties and capital increases.

Having received the status of an international financial center, which many large corporations and various commercial structures have chosen for themselves, the jurisdiction has gained undoubted authority and an excellent reputation in the business world.

  1. Offshore organizations on the islands are completely exempt from paying taxes. The only thing that companies need to pay is a fixed annual fee.
