I think this might be a US specific thing.

Dunno about other countries, but it seems unlikely it'd be different unless their tax authorities were born yesterday. Then again, by US standards most other countries make tax evasion a national sport, so I guess it's conceivable.
So for instance in the UK you can have a company that pays corporation tax at 20%. If you don't pay yourself anything out of it, that's it. Why would you have income tax to pay?
