Ending money from your country of residence to a tax-free jurisdiction is completely legal and will not cause any problem with the tax authorities of your country until the money you want to move is taxed. For example, if a person has a company in a jurisdiction with high taxes and every year he pays all the taxes that correspond to that person's commercial activities, like corporation tax, value-added taxes, and income taxes. Once the taxes are paid, the receiver of this company can do anything freely with this money, such as he can purchase a second home abroad, invest in foreign stock exchanges or open new lines of business in both physical and e-commerce in any country in the world.
Moving money offshore is not that difficult. However, if a person registers a company that generates annual dividends and then without declaring them he transfers this money generated from that individual's offshore company to his current account in his country of residence during the arousal of the problem. In this situation, the tax authorities of your country can interrogate you about the source of income. When you are unable to justify it through your business activity in your own country of residence, you can be subject to some kind of administrative sanction.
What problems can you face when transferring money offshore?
The tax authorities are always pending the transfers of money from one country to another but if this money or real estate is declared, this transfer of money will not cause any problem. As per the logic of fiscal authorities, when sanctioning natural people or companies, it will be based on the increase of unjustified patrimony. This means that someone who declares to have returns of 15,000 pounds a year and 100,000 pounds in the current account and has 3 houses on his name worth 200,000 pounds each has a patrimony that does not go with his declared earning. Or a firm that declares annually that it has a profit of 20,000 pounds along with its corporate account 300,000 pounds and 3 offices valued at 100,000 pounds, each is making a similar kind of mistake by presenting an unjustified patrimony. There is a simple solution for avoiding this situation, that does not register anything on your name in your country of tax residence. The tax agencies will hardly charge or seize anything from you if you do not have current accounts or assets registered in your name. Till the money is declared of its legal origin, transferring money offshore is very simple, but you need to be careful and take precautions. You can always check for a certificate of origin of funds depending upon the offshore bank and the fund that you want to transfer. Once you can justify before the entity, you can transfer the amount without any restriction.
Besides, anyone can carry cash while travelling to another country, but because of the laws and regulations against money laundering, you are allowed to carry only 10,000 pounds. You can issue a certificate from a financial institution or tax agency and ask them to issue a certificate so that you will be able to withdraw the amount of money you want from that nation. After reaching the other country, you need to present the certificate to the relevant authorities so that you will be able to purchase a house or make an investment. While making a wire transfer of an amount of more than 100,000 there are possibilities that you will need to fill in a certificate explaining the reason for the transaction. Once it is completed and presented you will be able to make a wire transfer.
