Frequently Asked Questions
What is the tax rate for a BVI Business Company?
The BVI is a tax-neutral jurisdiction. Business Companies (BCs) are exempt from all local taxes, including corporate income tax, capital gains tax, and withholding tax, provided the business activities are conducted outside of the territory.
Is my company information kept private in the BVI?
Yes. The BVI is renowned for its high level of confidentiality. While a Register of Directors must be filed with the Registrar, it is not accessible to the general public. Information regarding shareholders and beneficial owners remains strictly private and is only held by the Registered Agent.
What are the requirements for BVI company directors and shareholders?
A BVI company requires a minimum of only one director and one shareholder. They can be the same individual or a corporate entity, and there are no residency or nationality requirements.
How long does it take to register a company in the BVI?
BVI company formation is highly efficient. Once all KYC documents are submitted and verified, the incorporation process is typically completed within 2 to 3 business days.
Are BVI companies required to file annual financial accounts?
BVI companies must maintain accounting records that sufficiently show the company's financial position, but there is no requirement to file annual tax returns or audited financial statements with the BVI government for most offshore entities.
Can I open a bank account for my BVI company remotely?
Yes. We facilitate remote bank account openings for BVI companies with leading digital banks and international offshore banks. No travel to the BVI is required for the incorporation or account opening process.
