Jurisdiction overview: Seychelles
Seychelles is a popular offshore jurisdiction with flexible corporate legislation, a high degree of confidentiality, and simple requirements for non-residents. Companies registered in Seychelles are widely used for international trade, investment activities, asset ownership, and online projects.
A Seychelles IBC is exempt from taxation when conducting activities outside the country and is not required to submit financial reports or undergo an audit. Registration is fully remote, management can be performed from anywhere in the world, and 100% foreign ownership is allowed without restrictions.
The jurisdiction does not participate in the automatic exchange of tax information (CRS) and continues to provide a high level of corporate confidentiality — while maintaining full legal use of companies in international structures.

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.
