Liechtenstein Disclosure Facility (“LDF”) opportunity

The LDF is a disclosure opportunity for UK tax residents (“clients”) with undisclosed offshore assets. Clients are eligible for participation in the LDF if they have a meaningful connection to Liechtenstein.

Clients who want to regularise their tax can invest in a LAP UK or a FCV UK issued by Swiss Life (Liechtenstein) to establish such  a meaningful connection with Liechtenstein; both qualify as relevant property for the purpose of the LDF.

Please note that the eligibility to participate in the LDF is exclusively decided by HM Revenue & Customs.

If you want to learn more about our compliant products and also the LDF opportunity please refer to the LDF factsheet or contact our UK-desk.
