This Family Cut Taxes 90% by Moving to Europe

[@yorkpa3767]

I love Andrew and his team, and Nomad Dad is great also. I've learned so much, FREE of charge. So thankful ❤

[@tesskansas]

Well stated. I have traveled to over a dozen countries, but only stayed a week or more in a handful. There is so much to learn. I am seeking out info mostly for my daughter to help set up her freedom. I am curious how the process works for young adults that are under Guardianship and Conservatorship in USA.

[@Zale370]

TLDR: - Planning in advance can save a lot of trouble and money when it comes to tax issues. - In Europe, different countries have different rules for who qualifies as a dependent. - Renting remotely and having virtual tours can be a convenient option for finding a property in another country. - Getting a second passport can provide more options for travel and freedom. - If one member of a married couple relinquishes their US ties, the US Top-Up tax on Malta will no longer apply, resulting in additional tax savings. - The client had French ancestry and was advised to obtain a French passport, which would allow them visa-free travel and eliminate the need for a self-sufficient Visa in Portugal. - The client's spouse was not immediately eligible for the French passport as they were not French, but could obtain one in a couple of years. - It could take several years for the parent to obtain French citizenship by descent, and then the spouse and children could follow. - Malta citizenship was considered but deemed unnecessary as obtaining the French passport was a more cost-effective option for the client. - The client's banking was spread out across various countries, including the US and Portugal, rather than consolidating all their assets in one country. - The client was initially unaware of the tax implications for their KZbin channel royalties, but was advised to handle it through proper tax planning. - It's important to consider tax treaties and residence status when determining the best option for taxation of income. - Certain income sources, such as KZbin ad revenue and royalties, can be taxed differently depending on country of residence. - It may be possible to lower taxes on income sources through proper tax planning. - Consider residence options in different countries and tax incentives when planning tax optimization. - It's possible to enroll in universities in different countries as a resident or citizen. - Descent programs, such as the ones in Malta or France, can provide additional options for residence and citizenship in Europe. - After establishing habitual tax residence in one country for at least 10 years, European options for residence and citizenship become more accessible.

[@michaelmansfield1289]

Andrew, this format is a superb approach for explaining your firm's services in depth. I highly recommend that you continue doing these case studies. For the first time since discovering your channel years ago, I came to an understanding of how complex the process can be, and why assistance is likely needed for most cases, especially families and those with multiple corporate ties. Am I wrong in stating that it seems like each country tries to arbitrage the cost-saving Delta Visa v other countries, and then another country comes up with a different plan to differentiate? And, are you seeing the world moving towards a more homogenous/universal taxation regime and citizenship requirements pursuant to the OWG/NWO globalists at the WEF, or is the nationalistic anti-global accelerating within your realm, making countries compete more readily for citizens and revenue growth via attracting entrepreneurs contacts incentives rather than raising taxes? Everyone did an excellent job and seemed to work nicely together. Thank you Andrew and team. .

9:43 - "And every 750 grand counts, as we know." 😂🤣😂 Indeed it does. This conversation made me think of the "Panama/Pandora Papers". I'm sure you've spoken about this in brief already, but I would be interested in a longer discussion about how (or whether) those revelations have affected your business. Or perhaps you might just use them for case studies. p.s. SO impressed with the NC staff. Turning over sensitive documents and entrusting your family's welfare to strangers is only something you do when the team inspires confidence. p.p.s. More Mozart, please.

[@AndrewFlenders]

The biggest problem when owning (and effectively managing) your business from a different jurisdiction is Permanent Establishment. Yes, you may try to cover your tracks taking yourself out of the orgchart and give up any salary, but chances are that you are in fact the ultimate decision maker and, should you trigger an audit with local tax authorities, you will be hit with Permanent Establishment. Also, you will need to hire/appoint a new CEO to "replace" you, which ads costs and he himself might trigger Permanent Establishment if he is located in a different country. PE is the biggest pain in the butt for business owners who still want to be involved in managing their business from abroad.

if you are starting a business in portugal and businesses pay corporate tax in Portugal at a flat rate of 21% of any taxable profits and you add the GILTI tax of 13% (i'm just being conservative) as an american citizen, you are looking at (21% + 13%) a 34% tax rate starting a company in portugal as an american citizen, the tax is still pretty high.

I'm considering the same plan as you. Did you manage to get advice on avoiding creating a permanent establishment in Spain?

[@pnachtwey]

The significant part to me is how long it takes to get anything done. I have been waiting for my St Kitts and Nevis passport for over 10 months. They are right, your agents need to push and advocate for you to get anything done. I didn't find getting the necessary documents to be too much of a hassle. The longest delay was getting a medical exam because there was a huge back log due to the CCP-virus limiting hospital visits and exams. It took 9 months to get notified I am approved. One other thing that Andrew and his team didn't mention is that it seems you get nickle and dimed to death with fees. Some seem outrageous. Now I am starting to get rid of stuff that I know won't make the "Escape from USA"

[@nomadcapitalist]

If you would have hired Nomad Capitalist, there would be no nickeling and diming because we present one flat fee.

My advice is to avoid hearsay. Nobody likes to talk about his money, how he made it and where it goes. Fact 1. the only secretaries in Europe that work really well (a priori and a posteriori) are these of finance in ANY money related domain (business transactions, stock, insurance, real estate,innernet). Fact 2; Avoid ANY former communist country. Strange enough anti-communists would risk their life for a dollar more) Fact 3 Tigh bonds on the matter with local specialists and local business owners.Fiscality is a tricky matter. Today I see: Ireland has first lost a bit of interest and is now regaining it, Eastern Europe clearly lost interest, Spain today gains interest, still very stable is Switserland, and Luxemburg) Fact 4 ALL banks cooperate generously with authorities to give you over. I did two local transactions to my son's local account and 7 months later out of nothing I had the tax man on my back. Caymen's not the Porsche. Where is my Jersey?
