British Virgin Islands (BVI) Company Incorporation
At Chesterfield Offshore we form British Virgin Island International Business Companies for our clients, for trading, investment holding and asset management purposes and provide them with day-to-day management. We also form offshore trusts and offshore partnerships and provide advice for estate and tax planning.
The British Virgin Islands is one of the leading offshore financial centres. It imposes no income, capital gains or estate taxes and has a well-regulated financial services industry. It provides a full range of offshore banking facilities and there are many offshore insurance companies and offshore funds established in the Islands. There is a sound legal framework for the registration of companies and for the administration of trusts.
The British Virgin Islands is however best known as a territory in which to form offshore companies. The B.V.I. International Business Companies Act (Cap 291) has for many years attracted users from around the world and there are probably more offshore companies in the B.V.I. than in any other offshore financial centre. The Act was revised and brought up to date an re-enacted as the Business Corporations Act 2005.
We aim to provide, whether alone or in co-operation with our clients’ other advisors, secure corporate and trust structures to protect wealth and reduce taxes and through which international business can be conducted in an efficient and economic manner.
