Offshore companies provide a straightforward method to legally reduce one's tax burden. In the UAE, such companies can take advantage of the country's 0% income tax rate as well as complete exemption from customs tax, VAT, capital gains tax, and withholding tax. Companies choose to offshore for a variety of factors, including lower operational and labor costs. When done correctly, it can have a significant impact on a company's revenue recognition and yield significant savings. Dubai offshores are one of the few tax havens that have not signed any treaties with the home countries of these people. Dubai offshore regul shareholders and directors can never be forced to disclose your company's authorities. When you establish an offshore company in Dubai, you gain legal access to conducting business in the Middle East, anywhere outside the UAE.
