Title: Is Turks & Caicos Islands a libertarian country? Post by: Elwar on April 11, 2014, 08:56:22 AM I have been researching Turks & Caicos and economically they are excellent:
NO INCOME TAX NO REAL ESTATE TAX NO CAPITAL GAINS TAX OR CAPITAL TRANSFER TAX NO VALUE ADDED TAX NO ESTATE DUTY TAX OR INHERITANCE TAX NO GIFT TAX NO LAND TAX NO WITHHOLDING TAX NO TAX TREATIES AND THEREFORE NO EXCHANGE OF INFORMATION WITH FOREIGN COUNTRIES NO EXCHANGE CONTROLS, NO RESTRICTION ON HOW MUCH CAN BE BROUGHT IN OR OUT OF THE COUNTRY ECONOMICALLY & POLITICALLY STABLE STRICT SECRECY LAWS EXCELLENT COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM LAWS CONDUCIVE TO CONDUCTING BUSINESS IN A TAX FREE ENVIRONMENT ==== I have not been able to find many references to social laws (prostitution, gambling, drugs, etc). Seems fairly libertarian. What do you think? Title: Re: Is Turks & Caicos Islands a libertarian country?

They have their own tax rules. But foreign affairs.etc is controlled by the UK. Title: Re: Is Turks & Caicos Islands a libertarian country?

Yes... they have their own laws there. For the most part they are independent. The British rule is more or less nominal. Title: Re: Is Turks & Caicos Islands a libertarian country?
