• Tom Azzara, author of "TAX Havens of the World" now based in Nassau, Bahamas & over the last 10 Yrs, Tom has registered more than 1,090 International Business Companies (IBCs) at a total cost of [per company] Bahamian IBC's $2100 US & Anguilla IBC's $1600 US.

• Each IBC comes with 2 Bahamian trusts, foreign trustees, registered agent, & a registered office in Nassau, or ANGUILLA, etc).

The Bahamas are the ideal tax-free haven, situated just 3/4 hour from Miami.

There are more than 400 banks in the Bahamas with over $300 billion dollars on deposit. Offshore banks and companies can trade in the U.S. stock market free of capital gains taxes.

An IBC can receive US Bank CD interest or treasury bonds interest - 100% free from all taxes US. and other. Americans who live offshore can exclude up to $72,000 in foreign earned income too.

Beginning in 2001, we began forming IBCs out of the Crown Colony & No Tax haven of Anguilla - 150 miles east of Puerto Rico. Many clients prefer the less over regulated legislation in this British Crown colony. The Anguilla IBC Ordinance of 2,000 has some distinct advantages over the new Bahamas IBC ACT, 2,000.

We've formed more than 30 Anguillian IBCs since the beginning of this year (2001), many clients prefer the less over regulated legislation in this British Crown colony.

The Confidential Relationships Ordinance 1981
"tax offences cannot be investigated"
quote the government of Anguilla (1-1-2001)

Like Montserrat’s Confidentiality Ordinance of 1985, Anguilla’s Confidential Relationships Ordinance 1981 provides stringent penalties for the improper release of confidential information, whether by private individuals or public officials.

Banking Offshore

* All offshore banks today now have tough "due diligence" rules & procedures.
* More stringent screening of clients and their activities is now the norm.
* If you can't tell your bankers what you do & who you are, then you can forget about banking offshore.

Last summer I was advised by a Swiss banker [with banks in Cayman & Switzerland] that they always place their companies in a different jurisdiction from where the company does it's banking. This is good advice, but illegal activities will not be tolerated by any of the reputable offshore banks.

Americans don't understand why offshore (IBCs)
International Business Company are so popular.

So, here are a few good examples:

• American owned service oriented businesses, where the services are performed in the tax haven itself, can legally avoid US. income taxes.

• Foreign individuals (called non resident alien individuals by the IRS) are subject to US. estate taxes on their US. assets (stocks, bonds, real estate) when they die, just like the American taxpayer, at the same high tax rates.

• But, under US. tax law, foreign, non resident alien individuals that hold their US. assets in an offshore holding company (instead of in their own name) can legally avoid all US. estate taxes when they die.

• Foreign banks & offshore companies avoid all US. capital gains on their stock market trades! Really!!
