How do I open an offshore account to deposit a large inheritance, and then how do I do banking?
jbrobinson23 asked:
I have recieved a large inheritance and it will be deposited to a bank of my choice and I thought to avoid paying taxes I would put it in a LEGAL offshore account. What I don’t understand is how will I do my banking and how do I go about opening the account?
The money is comming from out of the country, it will never be in the US, so I would think I could deposit it in an offshore account and legally avoid taxes.

There is an easier way, talk to a finance lawyer, for the couple of hours you will pay for it will be worth it. It has something to do with investing the money right away, but i don’t remember what it was for.

the safest way is to go to the country that you want to make the deposit to. make sure you have a letter of introduction from your banker, a letter of introduction from your licensed attorney and your passport.
there are several jurisdictions to choose from but my advice is to choose a place where visiting your inheritance is a good thing.
once there you will introduce yourself to a banker with the intent of opening up some sort of secured account. then wait for the funds to arrive.
you may also want to consider the offshore position of native American banking. but that would be another topic

You might consider investing in municipal bonds which are exempt from federal taxes.
