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.
