@Dandyline that is awesome. Can you give me some reference to some page or law text that says it? So, I need to set up a business in Dubai to get the 2-3 year visa, and then do the 2 days per year and that's it. Will the Dubai government issue me a tax certificate if I ask for it?

(I presume I don't care about tax credits, why would I.) @jackfrost thanks for sharing your thoughts. Interesting. As for me, I am already resident from before in a pretty-much-zero-tax jurisdiction, so I don't have the problem most have of "what about when my home country wants taxes/asks...

@marioIT yes please feel free to share your past Italy experience with respect to business, taxes.

What interest does the US have in Malta? Also looking forward to your suggestions of any CFC issue mitigations in the separate thread

@Konstanz @Davis123 what is the minimum number of days one is really required to be in Dubai per yr, to keep the residence there? (E.g. you reside in Dubai on the basis of owning a company there that gives 2-3y visa that you then like to keep, and keep paying Dubai's zero taxes)

@BlueMist @jackfrost @Paper Chaser thank you for your excellent thoughts. So for me, I will have a Malta ID. This automatically means that I am "ordinarily resident" for tax purposes in Malta doesn't it, even if I only am on Malta even just 2 days per year, doesn't it. This in turn means that...

@aquarius Stock R what :) Cool how is the bond thing designed? interesting.

@blueweb @aquarius what are your thoughts about Mauritius generally? Pleasel feel free to share here or Mauritius experience! All about Mauritius thread :)

Just curious, the Maltese consolidated accounts setup, how does it work out in practice - so you have A Ltd. and B Ltd. both on Malta, A owns B, and you own A Ltd., and you are a tax resident on Malta only. B can then conduct any business (e.g. sell consulting services, facilitate sales...

@BlueMist that is super interesting. What about declaring taxes because you hold a Malta ID card, Malta will expect that won't they, if you don't file a tax return they'd fine you or??

Anyone knows anyone who had a court case in Mauritius?

Have you done business in Mauritius? Have you visited Mauritius or lived there? Do you feel Mauritius is a reliable place, with a future, that carries out the law meticulously, a welcoming resourceful place you want to be? Is Mauritius costly or too bureaucratic or too French? Are there any...

@jackfrost do you have any further reference to that CFC is subortinated to not-touch-Malta (remittance). This is great and like to understand how it works.

General Malta questions, please let me know what you think: (1) What is Malta's definition of "manage and control" actually, do you know where in their legal code it's stated? (2) If you are a Malta resident - that is you have the Malta ID on the basis of economic self-sufficiency and you have...

Praetorian, avoiding Mauritius is this specifically for crypto or generally, do you have experience of Mauritius?

The normal routes of public disclosure of directors and owners, are company registry excerpts and UBO directories, that's all right? A legal process could potentially also show this but I guess rather not. (Of course hidden to the public tax agencies and governments can share information...

If your country of citizenship does not ask you to provide any tax certificate from the country where you reside (e.g. Malta), will a tax certificate ever be needed?? I presume not... would a bank need it? The Maltese tax number (TIN) is on the Maltese ID card, right, that's what any bank would...

@jackfrost can you detail this? Malta has some CFC rules as of recently. If it's >750k€ turnover and you as Maltese resident have >50% control/ownership then it's taxed in Malta, I don't understand how this principle plays out, please feel free to share your thoughts.

@happyjohn , development is taking place where? Do Caymans and Mauritius have public UBO and directors registers, any more open register?

Why don't you simply set up your business in Malta? Normally a Maltese company that owns a Maltese company in Malta will only have like 5% total corp tax rate.. isn't there a way to make it 5% total here, no additional personal taxes for the Maltese resident? Also, with your suggested Estonia...
