I don't know, but if you have sizable cash deposits to make every month, you could open two or three accounts in the bigger banks, break into smaller deposits and then periodically transfer amounts to a single account, or to your account abroad. Please keep in mind that while you can have USD...

In Georgia the best deal is private banking by solo.ge (Bank of Georgia), and the initial deposit requirements aren't strictly enforced. Only a passport is required, no utility bill.

Does the bank have the right, or even the obligation under CRS terms to send the information to the country they "guess" the client is living in? Is that legal?

So in a nutshell the theoretical scheme works as the self-certification is fairly easy to achieve

How about this scheme for a digital nomad whose home country requires a tax certificate in a new country before they will stop taxing you? - Get a permanent resident visa in Paraguay - Do not stay 183 days, but do stay enough to do some local (taxable) work, or buy real estate there and rent it...

Hypothetically, I am wondering how feasible would it be to dodge the CRS, i.e. the automatic exchange of information mandated by OECD countries where your financial data is sent by the country where you hold a bank account to your country of residence for tax purposes. Suppose Bob is a citizen...

I have a BVI company and US bank account.
