Vanuatu Offshore Company Formation
Vanuatu can be found to the east of Australia and the north of New Zealand. It consists of 80 islands scattered across the South Pacific Ocean. It follows the democracy form of Government and a strong legal system based on English law.
Setting up a Vanuatu Company involves following laws and regulations such as the Vanuatu Companies Act, International Companies Act, Banking Act, Trust Companies Act, Insurance Companies Act, and Stamp Duty Act.
There is no public registry filing which means company records are not available in the public domain. Companies in Vanuatu are exempt from income tax, withholding tax, capital gains tax, and inheritance tax. There is no requirement of authorized share capital and the minimum capital number is one dollar.
There are no mandatory requirements for meetings in the jurisdiction. The company board can conduct meeting virtually from any location in the world. Annual return filing and financial statements with the authorities are not necessary for company formation.
