any idea @Sols ?

sorry, let me clarify this: Portuguese tax authorities did not consider the US LLC as transparent for Portuguese tax purposes, even though it was transparent in the US. As a result, the income was classified as "other income." which is exempt under the NHR.

because i'm tired of maltese tax lawyers not being clear, there's always some issue, etc, etc. also, it's hard to open bank accounts or any other service because usually Malta is not on their supported list of jurisdictions. so, i'm planning to have the llc as a disregarded entity possibly...

Hi, I have a 2-tier setup in Malta (Holding + Trading companies). I'm thinking about incorporating in the US (LLC) and don't know what would be best for the Maltese companies... 1). Liquidating them and then once the shareholders receive the assets put them on the LLC? The liquidated assets...

Do you know if, between Calamatta vs Interactive Brokers is there any big difference? @Martin Everson

@Martin Everson thanks for the reply! why would I open the account with Calamatta and not directly with Moneybase?

@Jessie I've used Intergiro bank, no issues.

Hi @WIE7, thakns for your answer! So, some clarifications I forgot. The assets are part of a Maltese resident company's portfolio, so AFAIK, the document provided in my post applies. Part of the assets are in a hardware wallet (which is in a foreign country) and other part are in Kraken exchange...

Hey @Sols, thanks for your answer :) But in the case of the company buying the assets, the company must have enough cash to buy them (which it does not). Just think about it like a new company and an individual making the donation. Regarding the type and value of the assets we are talking about...

Hi, I was wondering where can I read some info (or if someone can explain to me) on which taxes (if there are) have to be paid if a donation of assets is done from an individual (not resident in Malta) to a Maltese resident company?

I'm having a hard time to understand how to categorise crypto assets according to the Maltese authorities. I understand there are two types: coins and tokens. If I'm not mistaken, coins would be, for example, BTC or stablecoins. Then, tokens can be: - Financial tokens (like securities or...
