About OffshoreTrusts.com

OffshoreTrusts.com is a free reference library on trusts, jurisdictions, residence programs, tax treaties and U.S. reporting, written for U.S. citizens and drawing on primary sources and, where noted, professional commentary.

What this site is

The site collects published law, regulator pages, IRS forms and instructions, treaty texts and government program pages in one place and explains them in plain English. Each page names its sources, so you can read the original document yourself.

The site gives general reference information. It does not recommend a jurisdiction, a provider, a program or a course of action, and it does not rank any of them. Pages describe what the published rules say and who the rules apply to.

Who publishes it

OffshoreTrusts.com is published by Family Office Club, founded by Richard C. Wilson.

Richard answers general questions about the site by email at Richard@FamilyBusinesses.com or by text and WhatsApp at (808) 600-9260. He does not give legal, tax, investment or immigration advice.
