Company formation in Gibraltar and taxes on Gibratar
It should be remembered that corporate income tax is only 10%. It operates on a territorial basis only, which is of twofold importance: on the one hand, it is levied only on income earned in the territory of Gibraltar and, on the other hand, it is charged when the taxable person is a permanent resident of the overseas territory in question.
The registration of a company in Gibraltar which will generate income in Poland entails no income tax. It is precisely this design of CIT that makes a company in Gibraltar so attractive, with only a handful of other countries boasting lower rates.
Not without a reason it is said to be one of the tax havens. There are no taxes on inheritance and donations, capital gains, sales and, interestingly, VAT, among others. There is also no indication that this situation would change. According to Tax Research’s article, “Tax Havens Report”, financial services account for as much as 20% of Gibraltar’s GDP, so it is obvious that this situation is being maintained. This makes registering a company in Gibraltar attractive.
Ready made company in Gibraltar
The fact that Gibraltar is a dependent territory of the United Kingdom has led the company law provisions dealing with issues such as the purchase of a company in Gibraltar or a ready made company in Gibraltar to be based on the records of that island State. Although it is possible to buy a company in Gibraltar, future entrepreneurs have decided to set up a company in Gibraltar in the traditional manner, allowing them to oversee the whole process.
Open company in Gibraltar
Można również powiedzieć, że regulacje prawne na Gibraltarze są podobne do naszych, polskich, przepisów dotyczących spółki kapitałowej. Jeśli chodzi o skład podmiotowy takiej spółki, niezbędny jest minimum jeden członek zarządu i jeden udziałowiec. Interesujące jest to, że członkiem zarządu lub udziałowcem może być nie tylko osoba fizyczna, ale również osoba prawna. Bardzo często taką rolę przyjmuje inna gotowa spółka na Gibraltarze. Prawo uregulowało również możliwość objęcia obu w/w stanowisk przez jedną osobę, takie rozwiązanie wybierają osoby które, chcą zabezpieczyć w pewien sposób swoje udziały.
Gibraltar jest jedną z jurysdykcji, w których istnieje możliwość założenia spółki offshore, podobnie jak to ma miejsce np. w Anglii czy Brytyjskich Wyspach Dziewiczych. Spółka „offshore” to podmiot, który mimo rejestracji w innym kraju centrum swojej działalności ulokował poza granicami. Warto również wiedzieć, że funkcję dyrektora może pełnić nie tylko osoba fizyczna, ale także inna spółka.
Open business in Gibraltar which is confidential
The commercial register “is not interested” in who in a given company derives profits from its existence and operation, because there is no obligation to report to such a register whether it acts in its own name or on the basis of a fiduciary order. The authorities place very high value on the principle of confidentiality, which is strictly observed.
