    Dubai: Poor air quality

    Yes, definitely the weather in winter months is better, looking less pollute. You can see often clear skies and stars. It's a desert here, yesterday was very windy and the sand was flying with a high speed. But it's rarely like this, I can't remember if the sandstorm was there last year, maybe...

    Court just reminded me again why not to hold money in countries with s**t judicative

    And this assumption is based on what exactly? Frankly speaking PL banks are not that bad. Technically some of them are super advanced with features I have not seen anywhere else (and I do bank in few countries - both on personal and corporate level). Never saw them asking for any kind of...

    Is BullionStar safe ?

    2 people I know had the same request from their home country authorities to explain the funds in Singapore (although they never transferred to their home country bank). But that's pretty normal considering the AEOI I think?

    UAE announces new entry and residency rules

    It is voided. That's why for self employed executives I see no real benefits of golden visa vs company sponsorship visa.

    Maltese Limited Bank account

    https://www.finductive.com/about/ You can do the due diligence yourself. Founders are from gambling related and financial industry (all linked one way or another). E.g. former CFO of Tipico. I would trust Finductive more than some Emoney (not saying they are bad or something), I just know...

    Maltese Limited Bank account

    I send from Finductive company account to Wise personal account regularly without any issues. Interesting thing is transfer is credited somehow within minutes on the Wise side. BoC end of 2020 as a EU citizen but non EEA resident.

    Maltese Limited Bank account

    I have been using Finductive since 2 years without any issues for transfers in/out €200k+. No cards though. I have Bank of Cyprus account with debit card for Malta company. Last I heard Agribank is opening accounts for MT companies and they are SEPA member since Q3 last year.

    Is BullionStar safe ?

    I tell you why: safety, SG has one of the best paid government in the world which results in minimal to no corruption. No bs banking, banking secrecy, high liquidity (SG banks have more than 30% cash reserves), no banking failure ever. Still pretty much lenient KYC in my experience (no questions...

    Best FX exchange from AED to EUR

    I use Moneycorp for conversions the other way around EUR to AED. I have 0.018 spread negotiated with them compared to mid market rates that you find on XE.com . But if you would be sending them AED transfer to their UK bank account (their AED is in Barclays UK) then you would pay around AED...

    UAE: Emirates ID to replace residency visas in passports, says report

    I hope this will allow me to renew kids visa without going all the way to Fujairah from Dubai. Currently it works like that: I go to Fujairah typing center next to immigration office. They fill all the paperwork and then I go to immigration office to get the stamp in the passport. They did not...

    Advantages vs. disdvantages of private banks?

    I really wonder if it would be free. I spoke to my RM SC SG and he said they can offer to non residents loan value something like 50-60% of investment portfolio, which can be used for anything I want, so I can also withdraw it. The rates for EUR would be 0.25%, sometimes he said he is able to...

    parcelabc.com

    Yes, that's normal. There are plenty of such services probably also local in your country. They simply have different rates negotiated for bulk daily shipments. Imagine Amazon they never pay standard prices on international shipments. How they can afford for Amazon UAE Prime members to offer...

    What is the best method to exchange money to another currency?

    I use Moneycorp. You can negotiate heavily for large amounts, they will offer usually the best spreads on the market (in my experience). They will then send you money as SWIFT payment with OUR charges (covering all fees along the way).
