I have just received confirmation from the UAE storage room renting company that they received my payment and the UAE address in my name is alive from now on.
I have decided to send a letter to the mailing address later today (which is my name and a PO box type number in Dubai - I was allowed to choose from a few other locations Abud Dhabi, etc.) to see if it gets bounced or it gets delivered in order...
Once this is done, I am going to do a cashout with a test amount (lets say €3000) before dec 31 (that is still in this tax year) so that I'll see how the tax authority of the country of︀ my residence reacts to the transaction. I think this is the smart thing to do,︁ and everyone should do the same when trying something new.
(
notes for Martin:
- no there were no invoices,
- yes, everyone here already knows you hate the user︂ the idea first originated from, please stop telling everyone
- no, I'm still not the︃ same person
- yes, I do already know you don't like the visuals of the︄ website I just linked, but it's still not an advisory firm, just someone renting out︅ storage rooms for expats
- no, some of us won't want to move our residence︆ anywhere, even if you already did and that is the only solution you'll ever believe︇ in
- yes, I do understand that this solution doesn't even work for you, because︈ you live in a country with no double tax treaty with the UAE, I'm sorry︉ for that but it is really not my fault, please don't punish me for it︊
- yes, I once again - really - promise there were no invoices involved in︋ this transaction, nor will they be, so please don't post anymore about how fake invoices︌ are not accepted as expenses by tax authorities as it is still irrelevant information to︍ this subject, and as you put it:
- so please do as you advise others to do, while I am testdriving the 'workable solution'.
