Canada offshore company formation

Canada offshore company incorporation is an attractive option in that it assures a good brand image compared to offshore companies located in other countries (Delaware, Belize etc.)

Registering an offshore company in Canada allows you to carry out all legal activities without restrictions, except some for which you need to obtain a license (Forex and Trading, Banking, Financial, Insurance, etc.).

Moreover, setting up a business in Canada allows you to benefit from a very attractive tax system, with taxation at 0% in some provinces.

Canada also has a very close business relationship with the United States, a fact which contributes to the formation of many offshore companies there.
