Asset Protection in Dubai How to Offshore & Protect Your AssetsThis article focuses on asset protection in Dubai, and how you can leverage globalization to your advantage by off shoring assets out of Dubai to credible and safe jurisdictions. Off shoring your assets to such jurisdictions mean more privacy, continued benefits of no taxation, no reporting and disclosure requirements, easy anytime access to your money through off shore banking, smooth transition of estate upon death, and much more. A sound asset protection strategy can make your and your familys life more stress free, and ensure a smooth transition of assets to your beneficiaries some day. Off shoring has become a common tool used in estate planning in Dubai by expats living and working in Dubai today. Many of them have accumulated significant wealth over the years, and the last thing they want is to have that wealth erode away in expensive attorney and court fees through the probate / wealth transition phases. Why do expats look to protect assets in Dubai through off shoring?
Lets look at why folks consider off shoring a strong asset protection strategy:
What about ongoing requirements?
How long will it take to set up your off shore asset protection strategy while you are in Dubai?When all the requirements have been met, an company can usually be incorporated within three working days and courier posted back to you! We have done it in as less as 2 days!How do you renew your off shore company license?Once a year, you are required to pay an annual maintenance fee (very small amount) in order to remain in good standing. This fee is due on the anniversary of the incorporation of the company.#1 reason why most Dubai and Abu Dhabi expats off shore for asset protection?Because the UAE is a tax free jurisdiction, assets are moved off shore not so much for tax purposes as they are for asset protection purposes. By moving assets off shore to US and UK governed jurisdictions, you are gaining peace of mind as a result of stability and certainty.In addition, your identity will not be disclosed, and you can enjoy full privacy and confidentiality of your activities and transactions. See, many expats want to avoid the exposure they face in places like Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Why deal with the local law when there is so much ambiguity? You will never be treated fairly like a local national.
