    Easiest countries to get and keep tax residency

    You were asked, like, three times, why you call it useless and keep repeating that it's useless without any explanation. And now this wrong info regarding PE. Ok, I got it, you just don't know what you are talking about. @Alenka, not sure specifically regarding Belarus' rules (guess you should...

    Easiest countries to get and keep tax residency

    Why do you call it useless on the grounds it can not be used for double-taxation-avoidance treaties? It would be a bold move to buy an apartment in Georgia, apply for HNWI tax residency, live full year in France and pay no tax there claiming that according to DTT you are a tax resident in...

    Easiest countries to get and keep tax residency

    Could you please describe why HNWI program is useless for international tax purposes? I guess it would not hold if some other country considers you a tax resident and we are talking about double-taxation-avoidance treaties, but other than that?.. Georgia is not as good as many people would...

    Can't cash out my crypto and live my life...

    Ah ok. From my experience it will not help that much if you "find a plausible explanation" regarding transaction history and such. I guess it may be possible to find at least something and have a crypto-friendly bank that would accept it. But when you will try to buy real estate in Spain, for...

    Can't cash out my crypto and live my life...

    Hey mariodraghi, been in that situation, feel your pain :) Care to state your location (as precisely/vaguely as you can)? At some places it's easier to buy a real estate, at some places you would not be able to do it without passing SoF checks with a local bank. Also are you ready to pay tax on...

    Advcash KYC is a joke?

    Btw, you can try to ask them what was that. They have humans replying messages, not "according to our Bank internal policy we can not provide any details". Well, it used to be the case at least.

    Holding Company Jurisdiction

    Haha, for real? You ask the banker if they need to update the profile with your Russian passport and he goes like "Oh I could not hear you, by the way if someone had a Russian passport he would be better off not mentioning or compliance may have to close that account"? Hilarious. Do you do any...

    EU tax optimization

    Hi, Maybe you can ask your clients to pay partially in crypto. Depending on your country in may be not taxable until you sell it - so leaving you a chance to relocate later. Well, check with a lawyer, just an idea. Good luck.

    New Structure to cover Sark & Monaco

    You are in a good position regarding Permanent Establishment laws, I presume Sark does not have any as there are no companies in the first place. Just choose any country that you like =) If you are doing some B2B in EU, some other country in Europe I guess (Cyprus? Malta?), otherwise your...

    Transactional bank in CH / LIE

    Sounds like "we really don't want to work with you for some reason", not "everything < 1B is too small". ICBC is probably there just to facilitate business for Chinese corporations and people, but it would look hostile to just say that (racist or maybe even illegal), so they present this...

    Looking for open a offshore business bank account

    Could you please elaborate a bit? "not evading tax (resident in tax havens)" means "got a substance package from a provider" or you are talking about bona fide moving staff to reside there? Also if you could mention what are the "large sums" and which banks can be approached it would be...

    Cayman Islands vs BVI vs Bermuda for IT business....

    Would it be possible to finally get dividends out of Estonia without taxes? Could you please name an EMI where it is straightforward to open an account for a BVI entity? Especially if UBO is not in a EU country but in some less known place (like Georgia).

    Cayman Islands vs BVI vs Bermuda for IT business....

    Most of those countries like Belgium and Netherlands would be withholding taxes when paying dividends and those are quite high. Cyprus would not, I think (don't remember off the top of my head). 5% for Georgia.

    Seeking Recommendations: "Location of Accounting Records" for Panamanian SRL

    Let me chime in. I certainly don't have experience regarding Panama and believe that advice of @Sols was of a high quality. Just wanted to add that generally "Location of Accounting Records" should not be important if we are talking about tax residency (for Panama and even more so for other...

    Best Structure for Crypto Trading

    Can't comment regarding taxes, but exchanges themselves are fine. Weird security features, but work fine. Transfers to local bank accounts. Cheap, fast, good limits, no SoF nonsense questions at all. The same for banks. You would not be able to transfer money internationally though, capital...

    Potential Issues with setting up Interactive Brokers Account then changing tax residency....

    I've done that. IB have a few legal entities for different regions, I was moving between two countries served by the same entity, so no transfers of stocks. Very easy. If I recall correctly they wanted to see address proof (utility bill) and to know the new TIN. Maybe there was an option to...

    Question Most/least aggressive tax offices in Europe?

    In the middle of the dial right now. I have found a property that I like, paid the 10% deposit and planning to transfer the remainder in the coming month. Banks and notaries were giving me lots of headache asking for documents. The weirdest thing was "we cannot accept the transfer if no taxes...

    Regulatory insanity for fiat on-ramping to Kraken

    When you choose it from the list you will see deposit instructions: please send money to account 12345 in the name of Abc Ltd at Bank Frick (BFRILI22XXX) with unique reference message. Kraken asked me for information/KYC once, but it was nothing like what you listed above. I guess condo sale...
