What you should observe during the operation of the Offshore Company?

The typical mistakes made in the operating Offshore Companies are failures to follow formal corporate procedures (documents, resolutions, book of accounts - where they are required). Observing the correct corporate procedures means keeping all the proper documents with respect to the appointment of directors, issue the waiver of meetings, record the minutes of meetings, the issue of shares. Shareholders’ meetings may have to be connected at prescribed intervals and records tο be kept. When the Company opens bank accounts or enters into contracts, directors' meeting must be held, resolutions passed and minutes kept. Likewise proper books of accounts should also be kept. These matters are often neglected particularly if the Corporation is registered in a jurisdiction where filing of audited accounts, or names of directors and shareholders in the public registry is not compulsory. The failure to observe the proper corporate procedures is likely to expose the Company to the risk of legal dispute or to invalidate it.

How is an Offshore Company used?

a.) For Import or Export Companies and International Trading Companies either outside or within the EU (where the company is registered within EU for VAT). In general, the Offshore Company can be used between the buyers and the sellers as an intermediate Company, acting independently.

b.) For holding real estates. An Offshore Company can often create legal avoidance of capital gain taxes, inheritance and property transfer taxes.

c.) For holding shares and investments through the Stock Exchange or elsewhere. The Offshore Company is presented to be the owner while the beneficial owners are keeping their anonymity. One way to use an Offshore Investment Company is to earn profits from dividends and trading in a low, or no-tax jurisdiction.

d.) For holding pleasure yachts and other valuable items.

e.) For Shipping Companies.

The formation and registration of the Company are made and the authorised capital is only nominated (it is not paid up). There is no need for the authorised capital to be increased to correspond to the real value of the Company's property.

  • The names and the addresses of the directors and shareholders.

b.) The By-laws (or the Articles of Association, depending again on the legal system) contain the internal organization of the Corporation and determine the rights and obligations of the persons who are related to the existence and operation of the Company.
