Jurisdiction overview: Seychelles

Seychelles is an affordable and flexible offshore jurisdiction, ideal for international business. Company registration in Seychelles takes about 5 days and can be completed fully remotely.
Seychelles IBCs (International Business Companies) are exempt from taxes on income earned outside the country. There are no requirements for accounting, auditing, or minimum share capital. Beneficial owners’ personal data is not disclosed in public registries.
The jurisdiction does not participate in the Common Reporting Standard (CRS), making it attractive for structures focused on confidentiality and asset protection.
Seychelles is suitable for holding companies, e-commerce, online services, investment structures, and IP ownership. It is one of the most popular offshore solutions among non-residents due to its simplicity, speed, and neutral reputation.

Main features of the jurisdiction

  • Legal system: Anglo-Saxon model with offshore adaptation
  • Currency: Seychellois rupee (SCR); business conducted in USD
  • Taxes: 0% on profits, dividends, capital gains, and royalties – if no activity in Seychelles. No VAT, property tax, or currency restrictions
  • Reporting: Previously, Seychelles IBCs were not required to file financial reports or annual returns if no activity occurred in Seychelles. However, since February 6, 2022, for “large companies” (turnover ≥ USD 3 million) and non-holding entities, it is required to maintain an annual financial summary – internal, non-public records. Additionally, from October 1, 2024, all companies must annually verify beneficial ownership information and submit a compliance declaration to their registered agent.
  • Confidentiality: Shareholders and beneficial owners are not publicly disclosed; the directors’ register is mandatory but not public
  • Regulators: Financial Services Authority (FSA), Corporate Affairs Registry

Seychelles remains a convenient choice for entrepreneurs seeking a reliable and legal offshore jurisdiction with low maintenance costs and a high degree of flexibility.

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.
