The general rule for Soparfi's is that there are no capital gains taxes and no tax on dividends received, where a 10% or greater shareholding in a subsidiary is held for more than one year. Profits can be accumulated, and when the Luxembourg Soparfi is liquidated these profits can be distributed to an offshore or an onshore company without any further taxes.

Offshore Companies
There is no magic or mystery surrounding offshore companies. This may sound simplistic, but an offshore company is essentially the same as any other company. Thus an offshore company can carry out the same types of business as companies incorporated in onshore areas and like other companies the liability of its shareholders is generally limited to the amount of capital they have put in to the company.
The major difference between an onshore company and an offshore company is that the rate of tax applied by the government in the jurisdiction in which an offshore company is incorporated is either very low or zero. Additionally some offshore companies are easier to administer and more confidential than onshore companies.
Of course the rules and regulations surrounding the establishment and management of offshore companies are slightly different in every offshore jurisdiction.
