Gibraltar Company Formation

The Gibraltar Peninsular lies at the southern tip of Spain just 13 miles from the north coast of Africa. Gibraltar is a British Crown Colony and their legal system is broadly based on English Common Law and local statutes. The official language is English although most of the inhabitants speak both English and Spanish.

Gibraltar has provided an Offshore Centre since 1967 and continues as a dependent but self-governing UK territory, entering the EU simultaneously with the UK itself.
