Practice shows that linking a Czech-registered company to an offshore-registered company is not difficult at all. This can be done via a cooperation agreement or by making the offshore company a co-owner of the Czech company. Business in the Czech Republic can take loans from EU banks and trade with offshore or foreign companies while paying a zero-percent VAT.
However, you should not think of the Czech Republic as an offshore jurisdiction. If you decide to establish a company in the country, you have to use common sense and respect the EU and the local legislation. You should play by the EU rules there as the Czech Republic is a member of this organization.
The possibility to open a bank account for your BVI-, Nevis-, Belize-, Panama-, or Seychelles-registered company in the Czech Republic looks very attractive but please remember that the Republic is NOT an offshore jurisdiction! You should seek advice from long-standing consultants in the country. The Czech partner company of Offshore Pro Group has been helping foreign clients open companies and set up bank accounts in the country since 1999. Please write to us to info@offshore-pro.info and we will put you through to a reliable agent in the Czech Republic. There you can find a combination of some benefits that offshore jurisdictions offer and those available in the European Union.
Speaking about Czech banks, they are similar to the banks in all other EU countries. They want their foreign clients to have perfectly clear income structures and perfectly transparent and law-abiding businesses.
