Great Opportunity for Savings on Fees and Taxes !!!
In this time of economic hardship “every penny
counts” so everyone should make use of opportunities
that rarely come by. The introduction of an amnesty
by the Companies Office of Jamaica is one such
opportunity to save on fees and taxes.
The amnesty covers the reduction of fees and the waiver of penalties on a number of company regulatory
activities. The schedule below illustrates the savings that can be achieved during the amnesty.
