however, this is rather a big advantage, as it implies that Seychelles will not back down and provide information about offshore IBC formations to the EU and its member states.<\/p>\n<p>For the Seychelles it is moreover rather unlikely to agree to the EU requirements or to present the information exchange in conformity with the EU.<br \/>\nIt is important to note that the Seychelles Constitution provides for the right not to provide or disclose data and information to third parties.<br \/>\nTrue to the \"Las Vegas motto\", what's in the Seychelles, stays in the Seychelles.<br \/>\nIt is therefore forbidden, by law and under penalty, to transmit data to third parties.<\/p>\n<p>The only possibility for which the Seychelles have also agreed is the handing over of data when it concerns real, major crimes, explicitly, - terrorist financing, arms trafficking, drugs.

There are rumours circulating that this could be a sanction of the EU and its member countries, or their tax authorities and tax offices, invoices issued by companies from the Seychelles to companies in the EU are simply not accepted. So that one could not use these for the tax purposes, the annual accounts etc. and let them be credited.<br \/>\nThat is not correct!<br \/>\nThe OECD alone is decisive for such possible measures and the Seychelles are by no means on such a \"blacklist\" at the OECD.<\/p>\n<p>So this is just playing on fear and there are no cases where a compliant invoice that actually lists goods or services from Seychelles has not been accepted by European tax authorities.<br \/>\nThere may have been individual cases where, for example, exaggerated price calculations were played with, i.e. unjustified, credible prices for services were stated on invoices which were not logical or compatible, comparable with European prices and led to them not being accepted by the tax offices.<\/p>\n<p>A compliant invoice issued in the Seychelles is deductible, can be brought in and used for tax purposes without any problems.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, do not let the negative interpretations of a blacklist impress you and dissuade you from your plans.<br \/>\nEspecially the year 2020 has shown that it is good and very right to set up as soon as possible internationally with an IBC (International Business Company) of Seychelles, to reshape the future, which will be more globalized than before, for itself.<\/p>\n<p>Now if you want to know how to set up a Seychelles offshore IBC company, what is required, what is
