Location
The Rock of Gibraltar guards the western entrance to the
Mediterranean and is attached to the southern tip of
Spain by a narrow isthmus. It has a population of 30,000
inhabitants although the Rock only has an area of two
and a half square miles.
Government
Gibraltar is a British Crown Colony and has been since 1704.
The Constitution gives legislative powers to the Governor
and the House of Assembly, which is elected every four years.
Gibraltar has its own legal system, similar to that of the
United Kingdom and based on English Common Law but with its
own statutes, termed Ordinances, which are passed by the
House of Assembly. Gibraltar is an associate member of the
European Community and is included for all matters except
VAT. English is the official language with Sterling the official
currency.
Types of Company Formation
Exempt Companies: No longer available
Non-Resident Companies: These are
very popular as alternatives to
the once popular Irish Non-Resident companies.
No annual government fee is payable and
audited accounts are not required.
Gibraltar is not party to any double taxation treaties so
there is therefore no exchange of information with other
fiscal authorities. Gibraltar companies can be especially
good for purchasing properties in Spain.
Taxation /Accounts
Neither an exempt company nor a non-resident company has
a liability to tax of any kind in Gibraltar.
From
2001 a basic balance sheet must be filed annually although
there is no requirement for this to be audited.
