Dubai Jebel Ali IBC and UK Taxes?

Hi guys :)

Basically I'm in the process of setting up a Dubai Jebel Ali IBC for business holdings in the UAE and I was wondering what would happen in terms of UK taxes should the Dubai IBC own UK shares that pay dividends, I know that if an IBC owned UK property it'd have to pay UK property taxes but I'm unsure about what happens when it comes to dividends from UK companies :o

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

    You would be best to get advice from a real international accountant. There are many schemes around. Some are famous or infamous. I have two on the go to reduce my tax, it's lawful. As for paying divi's to a foreign shareholder, as far as I know, it is taxed locally, hence, all the schemes in the BVI etc.

    Do get advice. I know what I do. But I love my two trips to Dubai every year :laugh:
