Nevis Company for IP & Royalties
An offshore structure is only as strong as the planning behind it. The difference between a resilient international company and an expensive mistake usually comes down to decisions made before incorporation, not after.
Nevis is globally regarded as the strongest asset-protection LLC jurisdiction. For ip & royalties, the Nevis LLC / IBC offers 0% tax on non-nevis income, formation in 1–2 business days and charging-order protection and sealed ownership — this guide explains where it fits, where it doesn't, and how to bank it.
