English term or phrase: offshore
I have been using the term "offshore" in all my

"steuerfrei"


Explanation:
Ausserhalb des Hochheitsgebietes (der Küstengewässer - 3-Meilen-Zone). Meist wird hier die Tätigkeit oder Geldanlage in einer Steueroase (einem Staat, in dem die finanziellen Belastungen des Staates geringer sind als im eigenen Land) gemeint, aber auch Wareneinfuhr oder Einfuhr von Dienstleistungen ohne den Fiskus daran zu beteiligen (schmuggeln).
