  • Opening a Prominence Bank offshore account may
    sound great in theory, but make sure you
    understand all the potential problems and risks.
  •  
  • The mere mention of the word open an account
    offshore is enough to remind people of tax
    evasion, unreported income, and a series of other
    hidden transactions. The Panama Papers scandal in
    early 2016 cemented the offshore accounts
    notoriety. A scandal involving several
    high-profile global statements has led the
    Australian Tax Office (ATO) to investigate the
    offshore account opening of 800 wealthy
    Australians.
  •  
  • But although opening an account abroad is often
    associated with illegal behavior, in fact opening
    an account abroad there is no illegal activity on
    the account. So lets take a look at what you may
    or may not understand about opening offshore
    account things about how it works.

  • 1. How does opening an account work
    abroad?Opening an offshore account refers to a
    bank account opened and maintained in another
    country. Offshore account opening accounts are
    usually opened in countries with lower tax rates
    or in other countries with economic interests.
    However, there are many other reasons you may
    need to open an account offshore. For example,
    you may need to get paid quickly to manage an
    overseas investment in real estate or pay your
    children abroad for education.
  •  
  • Banks around the world offer accounts to attract
    customers from abroad Some of the major
    international banks have specialized
    international departments for dealing with
    foreign clients.
  •  
  • 2. Opening an account abroad is legalYes, I read
    that opening an account abroad is not illegal.
    However, if you do not declare income and that
    accounts income on your annual tax return, you
    will find yourself on the wrong side of the law.

  • Lets take Australia as an example, Australian
    residents have to pay taxes on their worldwide
    income. These incomes include the income they
    earn from offshore assets, rental properties, and
    of course bank accounts. Any income from offshore
    accounts must be declared on your Australian tax
    return. If you have already paid taxes on your
    income in another country/region, you can apply
    for an income tax deduction in Australia.
  •  
  • 3. Benefits of opening an account abroadThe most
    obvious reason why someone would want to take
    benefits of Prominence Bank Services is to reduce
    taxes, but Prominence Bank Services have many
    other potential benefits
  •  
  • The ability to gain more attention. Get
    foreign investment. Access to foreign banks
    products and services. Greater privacy, for
    example, companies that want to protect their
    trade secrets.

  • For large, well-known companies, opening an
    offshore account can prevent the risk of
    suppliers from overcharging.
  •  
  • 4. Account opening and depositThe process for
    opening an account abroad varies by a financial
    institution. In most cases, you will need to
    provide a passport, bank statement, and a signed
    statement regarding the source of funds to open
    the account abroad. Deposits can be made through
    international transfers.

  • 5. Those who do not advertise will be severely
    punishedFor some people, the temptation to avoid
    paying taxes by not reporting Prominence Bank
    offshore accounts is too great. In other cases,
    such as some prominent figures in the Panama
    Papers scandal, accounts opened abroad are used
    to fund illegal activities or manage illegal
    income from such activities, which is difficult
    for ordinary taxpayers to include in their next
    tax return.
  • Regardless of the situation, failing to announce
    your offshore account opening for ATO is a huge
    no-no and no penalty. The penalty for unpaid
    taxes on foreign income and interest is
    approximately 75, and the Federal Police or
    prosecutors always have the potential for further
    investigation and prosecution.
