CaribTax
The financial arm of the BrightPath ecosystem. CaribTax handles personal and corporate tax, bookkeeping, and payroll in Sint Maarten with one operating idea: clarity through compliance. The firm has been guiding clients toward the island's most favorable lawful tax outcomes since 2013.
Every filing, every deadline, every year.
Sint Maarten runs on a precise tax calendar: monthly turnover and wage tax declarations by the fifteenth, annual profit tax by the end of June, personal returns each spring. CaribTax manages all of it.
Personal Tax Filing
Annual income tax declarations for Sint Maarten residents, advertised from 99 dollars, filed accurately and on time.
Corporate Tax & Bookkeeping
Profit tax preparation, monthly reconciliation, and accounting records kept ready for review year after year.
Payroll Services
Gross to net wage calculation, wage tax and social premium deductions, and SZV reporting for employers of every size.
Penshonado Strategy
Application management for the retiree regime available to qualifying residents aged 50 and over, covering pensions and foreign income.
US Expat Compliance
FBAR, FATCA, and Foreign Earned Income Exclusion planning for American clients relocating to the island.
Corporate Structuring
Entity design across NV, BV, and foundation forms, aligned with each client's business interests in Sint Maarten.
One firm. Four services. Zero gaps.
CaribTax describes itself as the operational core of the BrightPath ecosystem: every incorporation, banking decision, and residency application in the group passes through a tax aware lens. That integration means a new company is never formed without a filing plan, and a new resident never discovers a deadline too late.
The published team pairs general manager David Dolitsky with tax attorney Marco Aalbers, author of St. Maarten Tax Legislation 2024, alongside payroll and bookkeeping specialists.
