Tax follows you, not your company.
Where you are tax resident decides where most of your income is taxed. We find the countries whose rules fit your income and your life, secure the residence permit, and make sure you stop being resident where you are today.

How residence is decided. The rules we plan around.
- 01
The 183-day test
Most countries treat you as tax resident if you spend more than 183 days there in a year. Many also look at your home, your family and where your economic life is centered.
- 02
Shorter-stay regimes
A few countries grant tax residence after less time. Cyprus, for example, has a 60-day rule for people who are not tax resident anywhere else and keep a home and business ties there.
- 03
Treaty tie-breakers
If two countries both claim you, their tax treaty decides, usually by your permanent home and your center of vital interests. We make sure the answer is the one you intended.
- 04
Leaving properly
Some countries keep taxing you until you prove you have left, and a few for years after. Deregistration, exit taxes and timing are part of the plan.
Tax systems. Which one fits your income.
- 01
Worldwide
Residents are taxed on income from everywhere. Most of the EU, the UK, Canada and Australia work this way.
- 02
Territorial
Only income from sources inside the country is taxed. Panama, Costa Rica and Paraguay are examples.
- 03
Non-dom regimes
Residents who are not domiciled are taxed more lightly on some foreign income. Cyprus, Malta and Ireland offer versions of this.
- 04
Lump-sum regimes
New residents pay an agreed or fixed annual amount instead of tax on their foreign income. Italy, Greece and Switzerland offer versions of this.
- 05
No personal income tax
Some countries, such as the United Arab Emirates, do not tax personal income at all.
- 06
Citizenship-based
The United States taxes its citizens wherever they live. Moving does not change that, so US citizens need a different plan.
The move itself. Handled end to end.

Choosing the country
We compare the shortlist on tax, permit route, cost of living, schools, healthcare and how often you must be there.
- 02
Residence permit
Investor, business, employment and independent-means routes, with the application prepared and filed.
- 03
Practical setup
Address, local registration, tax number, bank account and health insurance, in the order the authorities require them.
- 04
Ongoing evidence
A record of days, leases and ties, so your residence holds up if it is ever questioned.
Questions, answered.
01Do I have to live there full time?
Not always. Some regimes need only a short stay each year, others need you there most of the year. We match the rule to how you actually want to live.
02Can I get residence through an investment?
In some countries, yes. These programs change often, and several in the EU have closed or narrowed since 2023, so we confirm the current rules before you commit.
03Can I keep my home in my current country?
Sometimes, but a home you keep available can be enough to keep you resident there. We look at that before you sign a lease anywhere.
