    Any experiences with the Italian inbound regime?

    That's being replaced. "Italy is to extend its SdI e-invoicing regime to cross-border invoices, and will withdraw the requirement to complete an Esterometro return. This will apply from January 2022." https://www.avalara.com/vatlive/en/vat-news/italy-extends-e-invoicing-to-cross-border-2022.html

    Any experiences with the Italian inbound regime?

    "In the business-to-government (B2G) sector, Italy is already following the international standard and trend towards electronic invoicing. However, electronic invoicing is now also mandatory in the business-to-business (B2B) sector. Since 1 January 2019, every invoice in Italy must be exchanged...

    Any experiences with the Italian inbound regime?

    If you're pulling in enough cash, you can always pay one of the big four enough for creative arrangements, sure. And servicing costs to ensure that you have a managing director etc in a more business-friendly country. Another aspect to consider (this is also true of Portugal) is that, in most...

    Cyprus Exit taxation and getting out of the EU

    Difficult to see what kind of assets would be taxed; if one has a services business and pays a small salary and withdraws the rest at 2.65% dividends, what is it they expect to apply exit tax to? And presumably if one strikes the company off that's that.

    Cyprus Exit taxation and getting out of the EU

    I've read @Martin Everson in multiple places warning about the EU, get out before it's too late, etc. This poses a slight difficulty to those of us wanting to hedge against Brexit a little by establishing residence in an EU member state before the end of the transition period. (Easier service...

    Requesting Cyprus non-dom *and* 60 day tax residence in the same year

    Has anyone requested non-dom status and 60 day tax residence in Cyprus in the same year? I was told by a couple of people that the tax office can regard this as overly aggressive and prefer you to stay for 183 days for the first year. Also, should one ask for the 60 day TR as early in the year...

    What are the actual chances of getting caught?

    You can bet that they will use the increased information sharing and lower cost of machine learning to optimise this in future, in ways none of us can guess at the moment. And they have many years to go back. There will still be human intervention to see if the algorithm has bubbled something up...

    Best company to operate from Cyprus

    Looking to transfer my tax residence to Cyprus. I have a UK company already, and one other director (not a shareholder) in the UK. I may render this dormant and close it. I'm planning to set up a Cyprus company. To my mind, the main advantage of doing this is for the 60d tax residence. It's...

    3 motives: Tax efficiency/ tax residency status/ residence for Schengen after Brexit

    For the most part I agree with this list. Portugal are already making very favourable noises. Greece I'm less sure about. But I will add that some Western European countries that are very difficult to get a visa for longer stays -- France, Italy especially -- if they haven't made exceptions for...

    3 motives: Tax efficiency/ tax residency status/ residence for Schengen after Brexit

    Disproportionately in favour of Spain; Travel trends - Office for National Statistics But e.g. more US visitors to Italy than there were UK visitors in 2019. They have a stronger currency and spend more. So I'm not sure how your statement would hold up. As for proximity, I don't see why they...

    Any experiences with the Italian inbound regime?

    'i lavoratori non sono stati residenti in Italia nei due periodi d'imposta precedenti il predetto trasferimento e si impegnano a risiedere in Italia per almeno due anni' The worker was not resident in Italy in the previous two fiscal years and undertakes to remain in Italy for at least two...

    3 motives: Tax efficiency/ tax residency status/ residence for Schengen after Brexit

    We'll see if Britain's spending power succeeds where America/Canada/NZ/Australia's has failed.

    3 motives: Tax efficiency/ tax residency status/ residence for Schengen after Brexit

    Some countries, very heavily reliant on British tourism. I mentioned Spain and Portugal, one could add Cyprus and Malta. But they cannot treat Brits better than EU citizens, or not without leaving the EU which Brexit has made a very unlikely prospect. For example there's absolutely no legal way...

    Have UK LTD, planning move to Cyprus

    Yes, I agree with this. Every adviser I spoke to so far though said that re-domiciling a company in Cyprus is a huge pain in the balls and to be avoided at all costs. Costs yes, but bureaucracy is the bigger consideration. Besides which, there is exit tax in the UK, even if not often spoken...

    3 motives: Tax efficiency/ tax residency status/ residence for Schengen after Brexit

    One important mistake in this thread. UK citizens from next year will be limited to 90 days in a rolling window of 180 in the overall Schengen zone. No visa needed. No use of EU citizen queue so it will be slower to get in and out of Schengen and there may be interviews, you should really have...

    Have UK LTD, planning move to Cyprus

    To the extent that I'm working in Cyprus via the UK LTD, I'm concerned the UK or Cyprus tax offices could consider that the company has been re-domiciled (more likely Cyprus, as the UK will be getting its corporation tax share). I'll keep a director in the UK and try to avoid anything strategic...

    Have UK LTD, planning move to Cyprus

    Currently UK tax resident and sole director/shareholder of UK LTD doing IT services. Clients tend to be UK/Swiss. Planning to move to Cyprus partly as a hedge against Brexit, although some other reasons as well. This is already quite far along. (In some ways Malta would be preferable for access...

    Cypriot Citizenship Alternatives

    What about Portugal Golden Visa? The residency requirement is extremely low, you can benefit from NHR, and after six years you're eligible for a passport (of course, a certain processing time should also be allowed for). That's longer than Malta for sure, but it's also far less cash down. There...

    Any experiences with the Italian inbound regime?

    Lol, Turkey and Brazil take the prize. Tasse, siamo davvero il Paese più tartassato d'Europa? | Milena Gabanelli The stat about the days needed to collect all the documentation together is alarming. To be fair, I've frequently read the same thing about the UK, although in reality what it is...
