Bonaire
Caribbean
Constitutionally the Netherlands, fiscally another world: no profit tax, a 7.5 percent distribution tax and income tax topping out at 38.4 percent, all in dollars. The letterbox version fails on the statutory establishment tests and a 90 percent deemed-salary rule, but a real business genuinely run from Bonaire keeps a burden Dutch entrepreneurs can only dream of.
