Introduction
Anguilla is situated in the Caribbean, east of Puerto Rico and is the most northerly of the Leeward Islands. The Islands status as an offshore centre is relatively new, however Anguilla has modern legislation and considered a well-regulated jurisdiction. It is a stable country with excellent communication networks. Anguilla has no foreign exchange controls or double tax treaties.
An IBC in Anguilla represents excellent value for money, with rapid incorporation and substantial flexibility as to company name. With the trust and company legislation recently modernised, the country can continue to provide a service and product equal to that elsewhere. An IBC is tax exempt for 50 years. Companies that are incorporated in any other jurisdiction may be continued in Anguilla as an IBC.
