What people say about British Virgin Islands

Foreign buyers in the BVI who are not Belongers need a Non-Belongers Land Holding Licence before they can hold property.

  • Concern Stamp duty 12% for non-belongers vs 4% for Belongers, plus land and house tax
  • Mixed Rental use is now built into licences but a trade licence is still required
  • Concern Property insurance is costly after Irma and Maria; under-insurance hurt owners
