PS: It is by no means meant as a direct insult on you. Its rather to make it very clear to you that you are going the completely wrong path there (30k and legality)

EMI if it has a real bank license with deposit protection etc and is officially regareded as a real bank. Interactive Brokers etc dont like Revolut/Transferwise etc even if the account is in your name and well no protection. Fee structure should not be much higher than CIM.

Any current (given circumstances remote opening prefered) recommendations for US bank licensed ACH accounts for Maltese Ltds? Proper IT consulting.

Any current recommendations for bank licensed EU SEPA account within the EU for Maltese Limited doing proper IT consulting? Preferably outside of Malta. Except for CIM.

Compliance for these companies is heavily automated and does not care about edge cases. The chance of two people having the same name + birth data is so slim that it makes zero sense for them to even bother so yeah likely on blacklist forever. You could simply write them and proof that you are...

Yes it is a very stupid and not safe solution like all non-legal solutions but particularly this one as UBO reportings etc are the norm and will be the norm everywhere and then it is no sleep time. Nominees will never protect you, rather rip you off. Move your butt means relocate yes and follow...

So currently if you open a European standard low life :) retail account it will be IB UK Ltd and you are getting two accounts actually depending on what trading permissions you request. The second account ends with an F. According to their support the regular main account is actually held with...

on another note what you are suggesting in your early posts is tax fraud. neither would i ever recommend or condone that - for 30k (which would be 50% eaten up by any structure anyways) this is just blantantly stupid - actually no - batshit crazy stupid. No offense - stay legal and stay smart...

I asked them specifically about my account numbers again to be sure. Will update.

"Being IB an US based broker, all accounts are covered by SIPC. You can get further information from our website LINK../2012 Nevertheless, UK regulated accounts (those ending in F) are regulated under the UK law: Please refer to this link LINK../2012 " They also wrote that the same applies for...

Are you sure about only USD balances being insured? EUR balances should also be insured via SIPC? Information Regarding SIPC Coverage | IB Knowledge Base (apart from negative interest on EUR > 100k issue) IB also wrote me (i specifically asked about eur and usd cash balances) that indeed that...

thanks good to know. as stated i personally do not use them. i just heard about them from two accountants refering clients there after lombard also stopped accepting new ones. BNF has been mentioned everytime too although both times i was advised to simply go there myself and apply along with a...

Btw if you are paying high fees you can also look at Agribank-AgriBank - Farm Loan and Agricultural Financing solutions in the UK for Maltese real corp bank accounts. Next to bnf one of the last real banks left to accept customers. Lombard has also gone back to only allowing corporate accs that...

Thats good to know. I spent quite some time with DBAs concerning Portugal a few years back but have not read too much about the article 4 section 2 issue yet. Will look into that. Yeah it is complete PITA and bulls**t. It would be popcorn funny if it wasnt so serious / dangerous. Also why...

In theory yes, the DBA does not override the point of interest in life problem though. The DBA more or less also assumes a known tax residency and that this is not contested. If you have a key to a German apartment that tax residency is already void and will be redeclared German. No idea how...

Also concerning passport discrimination. This only / mainly applies to German citizens. There is no discrimination case. They have the full authority to decide when they let you off the hook or not and when you trigger income taxation again or not. Just search for German legal cases about this...

Actually no it is not that easy in terms of income taxation. If you own a holiday home in Germany and you use that home yourself even if just now and then but with a certain frequency and it is not in general rented out all the time to a 3rd party (this is the only case where it is ok to own...

How would you go at holding shares <20% in a US LLC for the purpose of asset protection should you get into muddy water some day? The dividend payout of these shares is low-mid 6 figures, the worth low 7 figures. Cost should be <10-20k / year. Dutch stak foundation probably with a combination...

- local tax laws that give benefits to offshores e.g. Malta with its tax refund / full imputation system needing an additional offshore - regulations usually igaming or crypto related - (somewhat more) privacy - better legal shielding - corporate taxation - way of accounting - some business is...

It is about your passport / citizenship / domiciled country. Owning a house in some other country does not trigger tax residency (probably local property taxes and if you rent it out maybe also income tax). Owning a house in your passport country that you moved away from wanting to take up tax...
