Labuan Trust

A trusted framework for asset protection, estate planning, and fiduciary management across generations.

LABUAN TRUST

A Labuan Trust is a legal arrangement created under the Labuan Trusts Act 1996, where a settlor transfers assets to a trustee to be managed for the benefit of one or more beneficiaries or for a specific charitable/non-charitable purpose. It is commonly used for asset protection, estate planning, wealth preservation, and charitable giving.

  • Can hold multi-jurisdictional assets (real estate, shares, cash, etc.)
  • No capital gains, inheritance, or withholding tax
  • Flexibility in structuring and duration (can be perpetual or limited)
  • Recognised and enforceable under Labuan law

TARGET MARKET
