    You'll have to be a bit more specific. What hackers, red tape and mumbo jumbo are you referring to?

    australia/new zealand

    There is nothing illegal about having an offshore bank account. Even if you're from US it's perfectly legal. What is illegal is hiding assets and tax evasion. The US requires a declaration of your offshore assets. Australia and pretty much all countries except US actually, require a declaration...

    Stuck in stupid situation - need bank account

    It doesn't sound like you're aware at all. There is not one country in the world that will tax based on the location of a bank account. Your real issue, as you just mentioned, is due to your income being sourced in your home country. Therefore legally, even with an offshore bank account you...

    Best setup for investing in stock market

    IB will take offshore companies. They have access to a lot of markets & securities and have low fees so could be a good option. Deferring taxes will depend on your country of residence, CFC laws etc. And IB will report the beneficial owner I believe. Popular offshore jurisdictions for low taxes...

    Stuck in stupid situation - need bank account

    I still think you've missed the point. A bank account has absolutely nothing to do with where you pay taxes. If you are not legally required to pay tax in your home country due to becoming a non-resident, and your income is not sourced there... simply use a local bank account.

    Offshore bank accounts

    I wouldn't agree with this very general statement. Especially for the question at hand which sounds like pretty basic requirements. HK companies are expensive and come with a lot of extra hassle such as accounting and auditing etc. I generally only recommend HK companies if you have a high...

    Stuck in stupid situation - need bank account

    Just to clear up your tax issue as there sounds like a bit of confusion; generally (depending on your country), simply having a bank account, even in your home country will not require you to pay taxes on your offshore income. Most countries tax based on residency and source. If you are a...

    Need a solution to send & receive money

    Correct. On my last check those banks listed don't require a visit. If you choose one just double check with the bank that is still the case.

    Need a solution to send & receive money

    Just take a look at the bank accounts section. Offshore Bank Accounts You need to work out a little more of what you want from a bank or jurisdiction to narrow it down. Remote opening is a start but that is possible in many countries around the world. Off the top of my head I can list quite a...

    Personal bank account for online marketing

    @fiveO You can ask @auric about darks. If you open a bank account in your own name however you'll want to choose a jurisdiction that is not part of the AEOI agreement to avoid getting reported.

    panama vs argentina

    There's nothing illegal about having an offshore bank account. And Panama is a territorial taxed jurisdiction.

    2018 and beyond

    Well if you live in a country with relaxed tax laws, you probably don't need to hide anything. Plus a rich developed country has more available resources and incentive to track down those avoiding tax.

    Need a solution to send & receive money

    That's a long list mate. Have a read through the forum to get an idea of what jurisdiction and bank you might be interested in.

    AEOI - Check all the bilateral agreements here for your country

    @Internationaloff What is the purpose of a second citizenship in this case? I understand the residency as this is where banks will report to. But I don;t see how citizenship matters?

    CRS and the 250kUSD limit

    Each bank is applying their own policies within the CRS guidelines. From what I have seen so far, a lot are leaning towards over reporting rather than doing the bare minimum.

    2018 and beyond

    Also to clarify the dates that each jurisdiction will start reporting. 2018 does not mean you have until the end of the year to find a solution. 2018 is when they begin reporting based on 2017's accounts. If you have an account in any of these AEOI jurisdictions, you will already be getting...
