Law
The domestic law is generally a fusion of principles of British and French Law. Since Independence in 1976 the rule of law has been maintained. In its 3rd Republic Constitution human values and rights are enshrined. Thus the maintenance of the Rule of Law.
Offshore Legislation
Since 1994 with the enactment of the International Business Companies Act, the Seychelles has emerged as a regional leader in the offshore business.
The modern and comprehensive set of legislation have since enabled the registration of International Business Companies (IBC), International Trusts, Companies with Special Licenses (CSL) to operate within the trade free zone and the ever expanding web of international bilateral double taxation exemption treaties enable Seychelles registered IBC to benefit from double taxation liability (tax avoidance). The existing legislation on yacht, ship and aircraft registration have conveniently enabled the industry to complement the offshore industry.
