How we can help expats optimise their tax planning
One of the great advantages of being an expat is the opportunity to earn a higher income. Plus by banking and investing internationally (using the services of a bank or investment manager located in a jurisdiction in which you don't live), you can often make the most of your status.
You will need an independent tax expert
You'll need the advice of an independent tax expert. Someone familiar with the tax laws of your home country and the country you're living in. But where do you go? Who do you ask?
We're one of the world's largest financial institutions and we specialize in helping expats. We can introduce you to a choice of tax professionals who can help meet your needs.
Tax laws vary widely from one country to another and there are many other issues involved as well. Every situation is different and your ability to take full advantage of tax benefits you are entitled to as an expat depends on many factors such as:
- the tax laws of your home country
- the tax laws of the country in which you're working
- your choice of jurisdiction
- any tax treaties that may exist between the countries
- whether you keep your resident status in your home country
- if you are an official resident anywhere
- the location of your legal domicile
- how long you will be abroad
- the location of your employer
- how you will be paid by your employer
- how long you stay outside your country of origin
You'll need solutions that are based on your home country, your host country, and the international location(s) most appropriate for your situation.
As you can see, every situation is complex and unique. And to fully capitalize on your expat status, you'll need solutions tailored just for you.
