International trading

Whether a UK based individual or business investing abroad, or a foreigner investing in the UK, there are a number of complex legal and taxation issues to consider. Choice location of an appropriate trading vehicle is often the most important first decision. It may be possible, for example, to use an offshore company to trade or to hold intellectual property rights. It is also important to consider the impact of UK and foreign withholding taxes together with the rules on agency, branches and permanent establishments.
