Is the UK also considered as Offshore?

[Moh1]

I have heard several from India and Pakistan which opened companies in the UK, I never thought of that this should be considered as an Offshore Country / Tax haven ?

"offshore" means


The term offshore in the context of investments would refer to putting money into a venture outside of your home country to take advantage of benefits offered by the host country. Look up an article on Investopedia titled The Pros and Cons of Offshore Investing. It's a very good resource.
