    Does that mean I can safely give the TIN of my previous EU tax home?

    DeGiro is asking for my tax residency and CRS status

    Thanks, I'll try to get a Thai Tax Identification Number. I hope I won't have to do a Thai tax return every year. I'm OK with losing my DeGiro account, if they don't accept customers from Thailand.

    What are the best investment brokers outside of the western world? (EU / US)

    Due to the hostility in the western world with regards to world, I'd like to diversify my assets. I spend a lot of time in Asia and it seems Asians seem more welcoming of wealthy and successful people. In the EU, recommended stock brokers are DeGiro, InteractiveInvestors, Trading212 and Saxo...

    DeGiro is asking for my tax residency and CRS status

    I'm travelling and working around the world as a digital nomad in 3rd world countries and not spending more than 6 months in any specific country. So far I've been fortunate to leave my home tax country and not be in the tax net of any country. However, I have been investing money with...

    Are there cheap international banks outside of the Netherlands that will easily accept most international Dutch IT companies?

    I already have a Business Bank account at Revolut and Transferwise, but I'd love to have an international business bank account with 1 or 2 internationally respected banks aside from the current business bank account I currently have with a Dutch bank. Are there cheap international banks...

    I currently have €30k in Kraken and €30k in Binance, how secure is that?

    I've already emigrated from my European home country a while ago, but I'm a bit paranoid. How secure is it for me to keep storing my €60k in Bitcoin on the Bitcoin Exchanges Kraken and Binance? Is it really much better to move my Bitcoins to an offline hardware wallet?

    Any Swiss or Singapore personal bank accounts that I can open remotely because of covid-19?

    I'm emigrating in december this year and I like the idea of mostly using a new more international personal bank account. I'm not sure if it's realistic to obtain a personal Swiss bank account. An alternative would be to use N26 and TransferWise, but they seem more likely to lock/freeze your...

    Should I avoid working for customers from my home country?

    I'm from a small Northern European country, I regularly get the chance to work a juicy contract for the government or for a large corporation from home, while sitting on my a*s all day. Will accepting customers from my home country increase the chances that I'll get problems with the tax...

    What are options for tax residency as a digital nomad that never spends more than 3 months in a country?

    I'm also pretty confident that in 3-5 years my personal situation will be extremely different than it is now. I might have met a latina girlfriend and might want a family and children, want to stop travelling. Right now the main priority is to get my own government off my back and getting...

    What are options for tax residency as a digital nomad that never spends more than 3 months in a country?

    I'm starting to get mixed feelings about which information I can trust and which I cannot. I kind of wishes I moved my tax residency last year to Thailand or the Philippines, when I was there. At least I would've already officially left my home country, which puts me at ease. I'll just...

    What are options for tax residency as a digital nomad that never spends more than 3 months in a country?

    I was planning to live in South America and Southeast Asia, not spend more than 2 weeks yearly in my home country or possibly not visit at all anymore. I don't have any clients from my home country, nor a house.

    What are options for tax residency as a digital nomad that never spends more than 3 months in a country?

    That's the thing... there is no minimum time you have to live in the country. You don't need to live 6 months per year in the country. Also, I read that most young people in Tbilisi do speak English. I haven't been there, but apparently it's not like in Ukraine, Thailand, etc. But I'm looking...

    What are options for tax residency as a digital nomad that never spends more than 3 months in a country?

    Is there any advantage for moving from Northern Europe to Cyprus and then to Georgia instead of directly to Georgia? Just because EU regulation enforces that EU countries play nicely with each other? Georgian tax residency does seem like a dream. Thanks, I regularly have clients from the EU, but...
