Henley & Partners provide reliable and efficient company incorporation and administration services in all the important offshore and onshore jurisdictions. We give independent advice prior to establishing such structures in the most suitable jurisdictions.

Our services are comprehensive, provided by specialist consultants and lawyers, independent trustees and other highly qualified professionals, and focused on each client's individual circumstances and requirements. We combine the expertise of these professionals in their relevant fields to provide you with excellent advice and service.

Although most offshore companies are incorporated to function as part of a tax avoidance or deferral plan, this is not the only objective for such companies. Assets may be owned by an offshore company to protect the identity of the ultimate owner for commercial reasons or for personal security concerns. A further aim may be the protection of an individual's assets from unjustified claims and litigation.

Sark, Channel Islands - an unusual jurisdiction

Which Jurisdiction?

A suitable jurisdiction will be subject to the client's individual requirements and will take into account the activity involved as well as the client's country of residence, domicile and citizenship. To the advantage of the client, Henley & Partners are also the world's leading firm for exclusive private residence solutions, comparative citizenship law and related tax planning - a powerful combination of expertise and experience.

When setting up a company, there are many fundamental issues to be considered, for example company domicile, which is coming under increasing scrutiny from tax authorities in many countries. Clients who avoid the option of proper and informed professional offshore management of their companies in preference for lower cost arrangements, provided by individuals who are happy to act in name only, are putting themselves and their offshore planning at risk.

In most cases, entrepreneurs and investors who wish to use offshore structures effectively must be prepared to relinquish direct control and leave the active management to offshore administrators. By choosing an independent and well-stablished firm that operates worldwide in all major offshore centres, our clients enjoy ultimate professionalism and security.

We analyse each client's situation carefully, point out available options, develop a plan of action and make it happen. By working closely together as a team, our consultants ensure that their knowledge and experience are shared so that the specific details of each client's case are considered from all relevant perspectives.

No matter how complex your needs are, the network of Henley & Partners will be able to advise and assist you. Henley & Partners provide all clients with individual advice and comprehensive, yet cost-effective solutions to their offshore planning requirements.
