What Is A Belize Offshore Trust

Trusts are perhaps one of the most widely used asset protection structures in the world.

They are established when a person who owns certain assets transfers them to a trustee. With this operation, the original owner no longer has financial or legal responsibility for the assets.

Instead, it is the trustee who is responsible for managing the assets. The beneficiaries of the trust are third parties, groups, or individuals, who will receive dividends.


Belize, as a result of its 2000 trust law (amended in 2013), now present the most modern and flexible trust legislation in the world as the following review will illustrate:

About A Belize Trust
Belize International Trusts provide a relatively low cost and very flexible solution for a trust client.

In addition to their other features, Belize International Trusts offer particularly strong asset protection possibilities as well as wide-ranging freedom in the choice of a trustee.

Although it is possible to establish an international trust in several global destinations, Belize is of special interest because its laws provide better protection for the assets deposited under this figure.

An international trust established in Belize can be an effective way to protect your assets from confiscation. In the unlikely event of an asset freeze or bankruptcy filing, your assets deposited in the fund do not qualify for forfeiture because you do not specifically own them.

In other words, these assets cannot be confiscated. This aspect can provide peace of mind for those who are vulnerable to lawsuits, live under authoritarian regimes, or are in the midst of other legal disputes.

By creating an international trust in Belize, you can establish in detail, according to your intentions, who will inherit your assets in the coming years. Also, you can earmark certain assets for specific occasions or individuals, all of which can be kept private and confidential.

At the same time, it is vital to note that the establishment of an international trust provides an additional tax benefit and even more so when such a trust is created in Belize.

By reducing tax erosion, you can secure more of your assets, acquired through years of hard work, and ensure that your loved ones have access to as much of your wealth as possible.
