    0% plan and coming back from tax haven after 10 years

    You are so focused on the 183 day rule while it is irrelevant in the scenario you are describing, with your setup your center of life is clearly still in your home country because of social ties so you will be considered tax resident and your UAE domicile will be considered fake and tax evasion...

    0% plan and coming back from tax haven after 10 years

    you have no clue what you are talking about, in Belgium people have been considered tax resident because they still have a fitness subscription or a Belgian mobile number. I suggest you go talk with an international tax advisor. The fake domicile what you are describing is the oldest tax...

    0% plan and coming back from tax haven after 10 years

    The 183 rule is meaningless on its own in a lot of tax jurisdictions, it is just one of the parameters tax authorities use to qualify if you are a tax resident or not. "Substance" and "center of life" are much more weighted then simple calendar days. I can guarantuee you that in your example...

    Moved to Swiss - German Tax man is after me.

    Belgian tax authorities use whatever they can, Belgians have been prosecuted because they still had "substance" in Belgium. The "substance" we are talking about is a Belgian mobie number subscription or a fitness subscription.

    East European countries: Do they care about collecting Tax?

    Why do people keep making these treads thinking that they can pay no taxes at all in Europe (unless you live in Monaco)? Move to a country that has no taxes if you don't want to pay taxes. You probably can get away with your plan for a couple of years if you are lucky but at some point you will...

    Bulgaria / Cyprus for this?

    if you will manage this all from France then French tax authorities will find you. If you want to stop paying French taxes then you have to physically move. All these other schemes have the real potential to end before a judge because of tax evasion sooner or later.

    Andorra residency

    I am contemplating my move from a high tax Western-European country to Andorra or Bulgaria. One of the downsides I noticed is that in my case if you are doing some kind of consulting business then Andorra still has a little bit of a "shady" business image which could be an issue. It is also not...

    Where to drive a company car in Europe without Benefit in Kind-rules?

    Belgium has low benefits-in-kind on certain company cars. A Porsche Taycan for example is 100% deductible as a company expensive and benefits-in-kind is 3400 euro years added gross salary which comes down to paying 1700 euro in income tax.

    Bulgaria Self employed vs EOOD

    depends how much expenses you have. A lot of IT consultants are hard pressed to have more than 25% of company expenses of their revenue because there is simply not a lot of expenses to make for us. I gladly take the 25% no questions asked expenses and also have a much simpler accounting. To me...

    Bulgaria Self employed vs EOOD

    I have not read anything about that language requirement and that would be in violation with EU law that says that EU citizens are free to move from one EU country to another with the same rights as the locals. I think there is some confusion between freelance and being self employed (sole...

    Bulgaria Self employed vs EOOD

    I think for ICT consultants the Bulgaria freelance route is a good deal, yes it is not uber super low taxes but as an EU IT consultant myself this looks like the most hassle free way to do business in the EU as an IT consultant. It is especially interesting because social contributions are...
