Business-first approach
Structure → Banking → People → Records
A workable international structure needs more than incorporation. It must also make sense for banking, governance, employees, payroll, bookkeeping and ongoing compliance.

Who we work with
Designed for international business owners, not just incorporations.
Your company may source from one country, sell to another, bank elsewhere and employ people in Malaysia. The structure should connect those facts in one coherent framework.
Holding & regional structures
Compare jurisdiction, governance, compliance and banking based on what the entity will actually do.

Popular questions
Before you incorporate.
Do I need an offshore company if I trade internationally?
Not necessarily. The appropriate structure depends on where the business is managed, where customers and suppliers are located, banking needs, employees, licences and applicable tax rules.
Which jurisdiction is suitable for international trading?
There is no universal choice. Seychelles and Labuan are core A.I.W focus jurisdictions, while BVI, Cayman, Samoa, Belize, Anguilla, Hong Kong and Singapore can suit different commercial purposes.
Does an offshore company automatically mean zero tax?
No. Tax can depend on source, residence, management and control, economic substance, permanent establishment, controlled-foreign-company rules and the owner’s own country.
Can a Malaysian own an offshore company?
Ownership may be possible, but Malaysian tax, reporting, management and control, banking and other requirements should be reviewed for the owner’s facts before implementing the structure.
Can an offshore company invoice foreign customers?
A company can generally enter commercial contracts within its legal capacity, but tax, licensing, source-of-income, substance, banking and local-market rules still need to be considered.
Can an offshore company open a bank account in Hong Kong or Singapore?
Possibly. A.I.W assists with corporate banking applications in Hong Kong and Singapore. The bank independently assesses the company, owners, activity, source of funds, counterparties and expected transactions.
