Keep in mind that we are not giving legal or tax advice (please see our Disclaimer for details). That's why we refer you (if you are an "immediate client") to your personal tax lawyer or accountant before buying our products. If you are a lawyer, accountant or a personal adviser, we prefer to provide your clients with IBC's and other offshore tools through you.

Meanwhile, here are some sample IBC applications:
