Company Formation

​

International tax effectiveness can be enhanced through new company formation or incorporation in a number of different jurisdictions, which can be offered for efficient tax structuring purposes such as holding or trading legal structures.

 

ECCO can provide these facilities across a number of jurisdictions but we generally concentrate on competitive locations where we have excellent and established relations with local partners, company formation agents or Registry Offices, built up over years of experience, thus offering locally all related services of companies’ incorporation, plus all relevant accounting and local administrative support.

Yacht Leasing Structure in Malta
 

 

The yacht leasing system is one of the most popular corporate ownership structures available for European yachts operating within the European Union (EU).

 

In addition to providing benefits in terms of asset separation and limitation of liability, leasing systems can, as a side benefit, provide potential for the amount of VAT payable on the value of the yacht to be reduced.

Non Habitual Residents Regime
 

The high tax burden that many countries exercise upon their high net worth individuals, led the Portuguese Government to look for a strategy that could bring them inside our borders.

 

Therefore in the 23rd September, 2009 a new tax regime known as non-habitual residents published in the Portuguese Decree-Law 249/2009 has been created within the framework of the Personal Income Taxation (IRS) Code. This Decree-Law is applicable since January, 1, 2009.

 

Who fits and complies with the scheme requirements is entitled to be taxed as a non-habitual resident for a consecutive period of 10 years, that once completed, will bring such individual to be taxed under the general rules of the Portuguese IRS Code.

 
This is very attractive essencially for retired individuals, many are coming from other countries which the junction of the Double Tax Treaty and this Law, ennables them to receive their pension without being taxed. Others come to Portugal to develop activities which by the Law we consider as High Value-Added, being also able to benefit from lower taxes.
