7. TAXATION STATUS (See Notes) Exempt/ Resident
In the light of recent decisions in the United Kingdom courts and consequent changes in Revenue approach, it is important that your relationship with ourselves and with our Trust Company, SC Overseas Management Limited, is clearly defined and understood.
We do not advise on United Kingdom tax law. We are not qualified to do so and it would be both improper (and probably very unhelpful) to attempt it. This means that whilst we will ensure that all Jersey reporting and compliance steps are satisfied we are not responsible for making any returns to the U.K. Inland Revenue on your behalf, advising you as to the contents of such returns or ensuring that you fulfil your obligations to that authority. These are all matters on which, for your own protection, you must take properly qualified advice in the United Kingdom.

However, what we will not do in any circumstances is assist a client in tax evasion. Tax evasion (as opposed to avoidance) does not involve the reduction of liability by legal means, but the prevention of the collection of tax due by fraud, deceit, concealment or sham.
Tax evasion necessarily involves criminal offences and we would not knowingly participate in such activity in any way. We reserve the right at any time to disassociate ourselves from any client whom we have grounds for believing may be evading U.K. tax and to cease to handle his affairs forthwith. We reserve the right also to take such further steps as might be necessary for the protection of this firm, and its associated trust company, respective partners and directors, and their standing and reputation.
We believe that in making our position clear we will best assist those clients who are still striving to achieve their ends by legitimate means.
PLEASE COMPLETE THE FOLLOWING DECLARATIONS:
I/We have taken U.K. tax advice on all arrangements and transactions which are in any way connected with our instructions to Atrium Incorporators Limited
Yes / No / Not Applicable
I/We certify that we have been advised that such arrangements and transactions are proper and lawful and do not involve or amount to an evasion of tax liability in the United Kingdom
Yes / No / Not Applicable
