I heard about the new wealth tax, which is fine for me since I’m not in that wealth bracket yet. However, are you saying there will be an increase in capital gains much higher than the current 23%? https://samuraifinanciero.com/fiscalidad-del-trading/#Fiscalidad_del_Trading According to this...

Interesting. Though I read that resident foreign trustees (your recommended local lawyer) cannot be in the business of providing trustee services. Who can we use as a local resident foreign trustee then? It also says that the foreign income of that resident foreign trustee might be tax exempt in...

Yeah the fact that an armed conflict broke out again within few years with Aserbaidschan is a major drawback. Serbia remains an interesting option too. Easy to open a company through which trading is possible. 15% corporate tax only. Not part of CRS and no DTAs with many countries either...

If the only factor is where you can save the most money, countries like Thailand, UAE or Argentina will be among the best options. For me however, factors like quality of life, ease of meeting people, language barrier, safety, quality of public institutions and the environment are very...

yes very certain, though I do believe it won't stay forever as all left-leaning mainstream political parties want to abolish it and make it subject to regular income tax, the same way they just did in Portugal.

In addition to finding out if regular capital gains tax will apply to trading in Croatia, Greece and Italy, what do you guys think of trading through an Armenian bank account? I believe you can fairly easy open a bank account in Armenia, without needing a company or local job. Armenia is not...

Does anybody have a list of countries in Europe or elsewhere, where countries don't differentiate between longterm and short-term capital gains? For example, in the Netherlands, Spain and Portugal trading income will be treated as regular income and therefore subject to regular income tax...
