Tax Haven Countries: World Map of Where the Rich Hide Money

Which countries and territories are used as tax havens? Compare financial secrecy and corporate tax haven index data, with sourced tables and offshore tax analysis.

Tax havens by country: how to read the comparison

Compare selected countries and territories in two separate Tax Justice Network index extracts: financial secrecy and corporate tax havens. This overview uses charts and country tables, not an interactive geographic map.

The Financial Secrecy Index combines financial secrecy with the scale of cross-border financial services. The Corporate Tax Haven Index addresses corporate tax avoidance. Compare scores within each index, not across them. Inclusion is not a legal blacklist designation, and these extracts are not a complete worldwide ranking.

Historical data, not a verified 2026 update. The corporate index extract is attributed to 2024. The financial secrecy extract's edition is not consistently documented in the project, so its year remains unverified. Annual tax-loss estimates elsewhere on this page come from the State of Tax Justice 2023 report.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does this tax haven world map compare?

Compare selected countries and territories in two separate Tax Justice Network index extracts: financial secrecy and corporate tax havens. This overview uses charts and country tables, not an interactive geographic map.

Are financial secrecy and corporate tax haven scores the same?

The Financial Secrecy Index combines financial secrecy with the scale of cross-border financial services. The Corporate Tax Haven Index addresses corporate tax avoidance. Compare scores within each index, not across them. Inclusion is not a legal blacklist designation, and these extracts are not a complete worldwide ranking.

Does this page show verified 2026 tax haven data?

Historical data, not a verified 2026 update. The corporate index extract is attributed to 2024.

Does inclusion in these tables mean a country is on an official tax haven blacklist?

No. These tables reproduce selected index scores from the existing article dataset. They do not classify jurisdictions under a legal blacklist, and absence from a table does not establish that a country has no financial secrecy or corporate tax avoidance risk.
