Intellectual Property


In many cases Netherlands Antilles/tax exempt companies can be very successful in exploiting the various international withholding tax rates for dividends, royalties and interest.
For example, it is very common, for a nominal consideration, to transfer patent, copyright or trademarks in favour of an appropriate Netherlands Antilles/tax exempt company before significant appreciation. Once acquired it then being possible to issue intellectual property (IP) sub-licenses or exploitation rights to appropriate third party structures.

Offshore companies are an ideal tool for administration and management of licenses. For example, a majority of software companies license their users through companies, which are established in an offshore jurisdiction, or through a firm, which is not established in a classical offshore jurisdiction, but is controlled by such a firm.

Typical examples of such users include without limitation:
- software companies; - companies doing business in information technologies; - licenses and copyrights to books, articles, music, films, etc. - certification authority, publishers of professional certificates, etc.
