Direct Advantages of an SEZ
Keep in mind that special economic zones differ by country, and while they’re advantageous in all areas, there are clear advantages to setting up within Cayman Enterprise City. When it comes to setup and licensing, you’re able to procure a license within three to four weeks’ time. There are no government filing requirements or reporting within the SEZ. Additionally, you can set up an offshore hosting and payment gateway to manage ecommerce needs from abroad.
How Does an SEZ Help Business Grow?
While there are many advantages that expedite setup of an offshore company within an SEZ, there are many lasting advantages, too. There are no income, corporate or capital gains taxes within some SEZ’s such as Cayman Enterprise City, allowing you to grow your business without unnecessary tax burdens. A skilled labour force is also at your disposal, as is a sound IT infrastructure.
Not only does your business have the ability to grow within an SEZ, but the recipe for success is well-written because you’re set up within a bolstered economy. Conducting business in Cayman Enterprise City is a great way to reduce costs, establish your brand and gain an international presence.
