    It is legal as long as you informa your local tax authorities of your income in this company and you pay personal income tax!

    The UK might not be the country to move too if you planning to hide from any tax authorities..

    As mentioned as far as you have the authorities of your country informed about your offshore company formation it is legal.

    The problems start when you hide it... but hey... are we not all do this

    It is legal as long as you pay tax.
    There are people that watch things happen, people that make things happen and people that wonder what the hell just happened.
