OFFSHORE Bank Accounts (NOT A MONEY MAKING GUIDE)

[heiny]

Wasn't entirely sure where to post (hopefully won't get in trouble), but the problem is...I'm looking to open a bank account / company "offshore" where laws and regulations aren't what is followed most places, e.g. Cayman islands etc.

The problem is I'm dragging in the "bacon" and the "bacon" is getting shredded by the tax-department. I guess it is "blackhat" to be avoiding tax as much as possible, so my question is; how do I start up a company & bank account without being present in Panama or Cayman islands?

I'm sure I'm not the only one who is on this track to be doing so, so hopefully one of you can post some info of some "offshore" methods

-Thanks in advance

Where are you from? if your from the uk i can tell you a few places to start looking?

 

[heiny]

I'm in Asia
It just has to be offshore. Any offshore would do and the procedure on how to set it up would be much appreciated, e.g. if youve tried to set it up yourself

Thanks

Well, a US contigency such as this would be very valuable.

I am DEFINITELY interested in moving some money to an offshore account as well. But, unfortunately, my only frame of knowledge in offshore accounts came from watching too many movies!

Any and all suggestions that could help USA biz people who are tired of the rhetoric from Capitol Hill, and the financially driven, political butt rape would be EXTREMELY appreciated!

Be careful these days with offshore banks...not the smartest idea to put money offshore when even big banks with names have to close

I only have to say these UK bank will never be affrai off running out of money. They have more actif than bank of america + citi themself.

If you wanna have more security go to UK offshore.

if you set something up in cayman they have no legal obligation to report to IRS so how would uncle sam find out?

only issue i can see is when you need to cash out. you can't transfer it into a US bank account... might have to fly there and withdraw cash.

I think you are mistaken mreleet

tax evasion is Illegal, but tax avoidance is not.

You make an excellent point. Definitely consult with a good accountant or tax attorney. I just read an article that the IRS is cracking down heavily on offshore accounts. I would like to have posted the link to the article but alas, my puny amount of past posts do not permit me.

If you are a US citizen your only real choice would be to leave the US and renounce your citizenship and it would probably not be a good idea to return for a visit after you have renounced.

Your accountant is required by law to rat on you about your suspicious activity.
Given the sting operation and rat culture in the US (there are people who make their living by ratting alone) it would be stupid for your accountant not to rat on you because if he doesn't report you (and they find out) HE can be in trouble.

Is that a risk you want to take?
