Treaty Network Analysis
Mapping of the relevant double taxation treaties between the client's residence jurisdiction and the candidate offshore jurisdiction, including withholding tax rates on dividends, interest, and royalties.
Strategic Advisory
Which Jurisdictions Are Actually Viable for Your Situation?
Astroaastro conducts written jurisdictional feasibility assessments for private clients and corporate decision-makers weighing international expansion or asset relocation.
Strategic Advisory as a Starting Point, Not an Add-On
Many clients approach Astroaastro with a destination already in mind — a jurisdiction they have read about or been told about by a peer. Our advisory process exists to stress-test that assumption before any action is taken. A jurisdictional feasibility assessment examines the applicable double tax treaty network, the beneficial ownership register requirements, the economic substance legislation, the available corporate vehicle types, the banking environment, and the effective cost of ongoing compliance. The output is a written report — not a slide presentation, not a verbal briefing — that the client can share with their domestic tax adviser, legal counsel, or board.
What a Feasibility Assessment Examines
Each report covers the following dimensions for every candidate jurisdiction.
Beneficial Ownership Exposure
Assessment of what beneficial ownership information is publicly registered, accessible to competent authorities, or exchanged automatically under CRS, and what that means for the client's privacy posture.
Effective Cost Modelling
An indicative cost model covering incorporation fees, registered agent costs, director fees, annual compliance filings, and banking maintenance — so clients understand the real cost of operating in each jurisdiction over a three-year horizon.
Regulatory Risk Flags
Identification of any current or forthcoming regulatory changes, FATF grey-listing status, EU blacklist inclusion, or domestic legislation in the client's residence country that could affect the viability or optics of the proposed structure.
“We commissioned a feasibility study from Astroaastro before proceeding with a Cyprus holding structure in mid-2023. The report identified a treaty limitation we had missed entirely — had we proceeded without it, we would have faced unexpected withholding tax on our dividend flows. The study paid for itself within the first quarter.”
