Relocation & Residency

Individuals, families, family offices and businesses are facing a growing number of global personal, commercial and political risks which are driving their desire to use the BVI, Cayman Islands and Channel Islands residency programmes as tools to manage those risks.

People and businesses choose to relocate to the BVI, the Cayman Islands or to the Channel Islands for many reasons, including the quality of life, their excellence as international financial centres and their innovative approaches in supporting and growing new and existing businesses.

However, the relocation process, whether for individual and/or business purposes, is complex and requires careful navigation.

Our BVI, Cayman Islands and Channel Islands relocation specialists understand the intricacies of moving to these jurisdictions and can provide bespoke advice and a broad range of services to those wishing to spend some or all of their time in the islands. Our clients range from high-net-worth individuals and families right through to large corporates wishing to have a physical presence.

As a full service law firm, our relocation specialists also draw upon the skills and expertise across Bedell Cristin to provide solutions for individuals and families who move internationally. These include services such as wealth structuring, succession planning, real estate and all associated governance, regulatory and corporate matters.

Unlike other law firms, we provide end-to-end support for clients. When a person decides to relocate their business(es), we can advise not only on the relocation, immigration, licensing and employment requirements but continue to give day-to-day advice, building a long term relationship and helping to ensure the sustained success of their business.
