Jurisdiction overview: Cayman Islands

The Cayman Islands is one of the most prestigious and well-regulated offshore jurisdictions, recognized for its strong reputation and trust in the global financial community. Company formation in the Cayman Islands is especially popular among investment funds, holding structures, trusts, and asset protection vehicles.
The jurisdiction operates under English common law, offering flexible corporate governance, asset protection, and tax neutrality. Companies are exempt from income tax, dividend tax, and capital gains tax on international activities.
Setting up an Exempted Company in the Cayman Islands can be done fully remotely and does not require local residency. These entities are widely used in investment transactions, IPOs, intellectual property management, real estate ownership, and international holdings.

Main features of the jurisdiction

  • Legal system: English common law with robust protections for shareholders and directors
  • Currency: US Dollar (USD), widely used for all transactions
  • Taxes: 0% corporate tax, dividend tax, royalty tax, and capital gains tax. No VAT, property tax, or foreign exchange controls
  • Reporting: No obligation to file financial statements or undergo audits. Annual declaration and payment of a fixed government fee are required
  • Confidentiality: Register of directors is public. Beneficial owner register is confidential and accessible only to the regulator
  • Regulators: General Registry (for company registration), Cayman Islands Monetary Authority (CIMA – for licensed and regulated entities)

The Cayman Islands are an excellent choice for companies seeking international compliance, strong legal protections, and a tax-neutral structure with a globally respected reputation.

Feedback from our clients on Google
Last year we switched our company to Finextwin and now we renew our Anjouan Gambling license with them. This was our best decision because long-term partnership and no hidden fees are important to us.

A business partner recommended Finextwin for company formation in Hong Kong. I worked directly with Alex - he was responsive, professional, and clearly knew what he was doing. The entire process took just a few business days. Top-notch service.

We urgently needed a company in the US to raise our first round of investment. Alex suggested registering in California. Everything went well. We received funding and all thanks to the Finextwin team.
