The Island’s Economic & Taxation Strategy
In June 2006 the States of Guernsey agreed that from 1st January 2008 the standard rate of income tax on company profits will be 0%, with only a limited number of specific banking activities being taxed at 10%.
This is what is referred to as the “Zero-Ten” regime.
As part of this “Zero-Ten” regime, the profits of regulated activities of utility companies, that is companies such as Guernsey Electricity and Guernsey Post, will continue to be taxed at 20%, in addition to the income from Guernsey property which arises to any Guernsey or overseas company.
