Taxation of Qualifying (Category Two) Individuals
In February 1992 Gibraltar introduced new low tax limits for high net worth
individuals to encourage such individuals to become resident in Gibraltar.
Qualifying (Category Two) Individuals will pay tax on the first £50,000 of
assessable income, which results in a maximum tax charge of £24,000 and in
any event may not be less than £14,000. Only income arising in or remitted
to Gibraltar is taxable.
Advantages
Apart from limiting one's tax liability to between £14,000 and £24,000
irrespective of the individual's income a Qualifying (Category Two)
Individual would also benefit from the following:
• There is no Estate Duty in Gibraltar.
• A Qualifying (Category Two) Individual may continue to hold a Gibraltar tax
exempt or qualifying company and income from such companies would only be
taxable if received by the individual in Gibraltar.
Redmount is in a position to assist both in the submission of an application
to obtain Qualifying (Category Two) Individual residency status and seek
suitable approved residential accommodation for those seeking to reside in
Gibraltar.
