Lowest TCO offshore destination

[kyjak]

hello,
does anyone keep a list of setup costs and 2nd+ year fees for different juristictions?
A list would help one to choose a country depending on the total cost of ownership.
For example a low setup fee but high yearly fees/flat tax would rule out the country for me.

I don't know if they keep it updated, but this tool at least used to be close to accurate and might be a good starting point: GLOBAL INCORPORATION GUIDE [GIG] - A BSI / LOWTAX NETWORK INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS SMART TOOL

By and large, the cheapest jurisdictions are the classic offshore jurisdictions like Seychelles, BVI, Belize, and a few other remaining Caribbean and South Pacific jurisdictions.

But the cost is also driven by the service provider (how much help you need from them, expected quality of services). With a good (and/or just very expensive) service provider, Seychelles can cost as much or more than for example Singapore or UAE with a cheap, scraping the bottom of the barrel service provider.
