Offshore companies are also known as tax havens. Because the politics of the locations of offshore companies are quite stable, and there are appropriate commercial legal norms and sound tax system, the onshore and offshore financial systems of the locations are very developed, and they also accept offshore trust business.
In order to encourage foreigners to register offshore companies at the offshore locations, the offshore locations will usually grant concessions such as tax exemptions or low tax rates and approve various convenient laws and policies, such as those related to confidentiality of the information of shareholders and directors of the board, expansion of business items, convenience of the filing procedures, etc. The local government of an offshore company each year charges a fixed fee. And, the offshore company does not need to have an office or staff at the incorporation location. When the offshore company completes registration, all the company documents can be placed at locations other than the incorporation location to facilitate operation. As a result, offshore companies are also known as "paper companies". There are currently dozens of jurisdictions in the world that can provide the incorporation of offshore companies.
