Decide what your tradeoff will be and pull the trigger. Whether it makes more sense to form a new company in different country or transfer your current company is a discussion to have with someone that will help you set up in your new country. Without knowing the specifics of your situation, I...

Response time got longer until I stopped hearing back when looking for specifics like the exact statute that would allow for straight citizenship by investment and seeing that it is still valid. Everything he had in English was taken off the net. In this case I think he found the hard way that...

Russians still trust Swiss banks? lolwut? That's so 20th century. Swiss banks about are about as safe as US banks, reasonably stable but zero privacy. Why would someone want to live in an expensive part of Europe? The same reason someone would want to live in Bel Air. If you have money to the...

PH is a place that works for some people but you will think the food is absolute garbage if you go in expecting it to be on Thailand's level. I've only been to Angeles, but the only place I found to get consistently good meals was the Angeles Beach Club hotel. Authentic PH Jollibee is less gross...

Approximate costs are mentioned in the thread, but exact figures aren't mentioned here or on your website. Adding this information to the OP could save you some "how much is..." questions in the future.

I'm not sure what you are not understanding. You are going to be a bigger catch in Colombia than in Russia, Ukraine, Moldova or any other white country, so naturally the quantity and quality of responses you get will be higher. I thought we just covered that? You must really come across as a...

I don't have any experience with the intricacies of dealing with Germany's tax code, but I have been through the ringer with the US' IRS and HK's IRD. I would very strongly advise you against starting a new company in Hong Kong. You will have to prove that you are compliant with every box that...

If you come from a normal western perspective Colombian women have the potential to suck even more than western women. You get all of the drama you already know, plus a Latin temper, plus questionable English (or limited by whatever your level of Spanish is combined with your ability to adapt to...

Theoretically you could do everything on the ground yourself for minimal marginal cost beyond travel, but unless you speak great Spanish and are a masochist I wouldn't recommend it. As an example https://jlcauditors.com/en/rates/ has options in the $1300-$2000 range for the company setup. It...

You can do that to get residency in both Colombia and Dubai. For Colombia you will start a new company there and get a TP-4 visa to work as an employee of your company. That's good for 3 years and you can renew it as long as you keep paying your company's annual fees in Colombia. @Fred would be...

The only city in Colombia where I've spent any time is Medellin. One of the quirks of the city is that whenever you ask a question you are told whatever the other person thinks you want to hear, whether it's true or not. Is this a Colombian thing or just a Medellin thing? Any tips on buying...

Canada's decline is very similar to that of the United States. The country has taken in about 2 million third worlders recently, which bring third world crime, living standards, corruption and everything else undesirable about their home countries with them. They congregate together, turning...

Cost effectiveness limits your options. Dubai is a good choice as long as you go are fine with going there every 180 days to keep the structure working the way you want and are on top of renewing your visa every 3 years. If you can/won't/don't want to make the visa runs looking into a Panama...

Canada does not have citizenship-based taxation and is the only passport in the world that has visa-free access to the US. Other first world countries are part of the visa waiver program, which is not the same thing. You have to pay a fee to apply for it every 2 years and then have the fun of...

If you are okay with living in DR it may be worth considering. Speaking only for myself I've been there a week and that was 5 days longer than I needed to know I would have no desire to live there. As a point of comparison, that was one day less than I needed to know I would never want to live...

Thailand Elite is a good value...IF you will use everything you get with it. Do you golf? You get 480 rounds of golf (24 per year) with your visa. Using that makes the net cost about US$12000, assuming green fees don't increase in the next 20 years. 480 spa treatments come with it too. You can...

Russia did away with forcing you to renounce other citizenships in 2020. Prior to that it wasn't legally binding, like Singapore asking if you renounce any other citizenships as part of their naturalization process. Russian agents don't go with you to the US embassy and watch you go through all...

Never trust a guy that would take a bribe to keep his end of the bargain, especially in a place known for corruption. Payment on delivery, after you watch him put everything through to your (and potentially your lawyer's) satisfaction.

What's the point of getting an additional passport without the CBI stigma? No one reading this website should ask that question. To say nothing of the fact that the US is determined to turn itself into a third world country with a worthless currency. You are clearly thinking short-term. Even if...

@JohnnyDoe suggested making a thread about getting Russian citizenship when I mentioned its availability in another thread, so here it is. I have not done it yet nor do I have a reference for someone like Fred providing white glove service to handle the details. If anyone can provide such a...
