Aruba Exempt Company (AVV)

The Aruba Exempt Company, known locally as an AVV (Aruba Vrijgestelde Vennootschap), is a flexible offshore corporate structure that combines elements of both a corporation and a partnership, making it a unique and attractive option for international business and investment activities. An AVV benefits from exemption from Aruban profit tax, dividend tax, and capital gains tax on income derived from sources outside Aruba, while also offering strong confidentiality protections for its owners and a flexible management structure that does not require a traditional board of directors.

This structure is commonly used for holding companies, investment vehicles, and international trading activities due to its tax efficiency and operational flexibility. Neptune Fiduciaries helps clients establish their Aruba AVV efficiently, guiding them through the complete incorporation process and ensuring full compliance with all applicable Aruban regulatory requirements.
