You might be wondering to yourself what makes offshore company formation in Dubai a better option than Seychelles, Hong Kong, Cyprus, and Switzerland etc. Well, first and foremost, Dubai is a well known tourist destination attracting over 13 million visitors in 2014 and on the road to becoming the most visited city in the world. That means you can easily avoid any unwanted attention that would normally be imposed on people travelling to destinations which are well known for their offshore activities.
Compared to European offshore companies, there are many other added benefits for forming an offshore company in Dubai or in other emirates. Starting with the confidentiality, the UAE does not disclose information to OECD compared to its European counterparts which makes it very safe for high net worth individuals to setup offshore companies in Dubai with no public record of an individual’s identity. All records of your wealth will usually be owned by a company which no one but only you can know that it’s yours.
Next, UAE is also free from all kinds of tax whether to be income tax, capital gains tax, inheritance tax or any other kinds tax incurred in a company. There are also no audits done on yearly basis for an offshore company account. And, the investor or the owner of the company need not even need to be physically present in the country for any extended period of time.
