excellent @nurredon thank you.

One question:
If the ownership of the investment target is︉ less than 5% (imagine you'd use that structure to invest in many startups), then normal︊ corp tax applies?

Cyprus Holdings (less reputable than above) seem to have 0% tax on︋ their investments when used as a private investment company (yearly running costs including audit, director,︌ secretary around 3-4k EUR).
I often had friends who are residents outside EU asking me︍ about it as they were looking for a corp structure through which they can channel︎ their startup investments without having to pay high yearly running fees or big taxes on️ potential exits).
 
Some standard stuff from ChatGPT - you need to read OP's thread again!

But you don't need to worry; he's playing in a completely different league than you are.︉
 
I wrote it. Grammarly (not even ChatGPT) just corrected my typos. The info is legit,‌ and those are the best holdings of this kind in Europe
 
You’re just making noise, nothing else. Have you even read what the OP is⁠ asking and his conclusion?
 
What did your advisors tell you how much substance you⁣ will need in Luxembourg for the Swiss tax authority to drop the WHT?
 
You need to install QDF Software and then fill out form 823 or 23B. They‌ then need to be printed and stamped by the Luxemburg tax office. Then, you submit‍ them with the Swiss ESTV and they will then check how much they want to⁠ check. But generally, anything that smells like nullshit is treated accordingly. Of course, if you⁤ run a business alone and live in Luxemburg for most time of the year, they⁣ will accept it. But if you run big companies and have a shared office there⁢ where nobody sits there, be prepared for troubles.
 
and to add it takes 6-9 months to be processed by ESTV normally. Directly go‌ with Swiss Corp. and Liechtenstein HoldCo
 
you can rule with ESTV that dividends to Liechtenstein HoldCo will be excempt for years‌ in advance. Also Liechtenstein setup is cheaper than Luxembourg. No witholding tax in Liechtenstein as‍ well. Liechtenstein has DTA with Monaco so its zero tax then.
 
Can't you get the same advance ruling for a LU holdco?
I'm just asking about‌ the Swiss side. I'm just really curious.
Why would the Swiss tax authority be less‍ strict with a LI holdco than with a LU holdco? In both cases, they would⁠ give up the WHT, so it's not very logical to me. Do they assume that⁤ the LI authorities will be stricter/do some of the enforcement for them?
 
the same currency, is Lichtenstein using Franken currency?
 
I doubt he’ll come back here to entertain you with great solutions that he has‌ paid a fortune for and spent a lot of time obtaining. But if he does,‍ I’ll be the first to read and absorb everything.

The thread is bookmarked in case⁠ you return here, OP
