[2]
world personal income taxes are a major
[5]
source of revenue for governments around
[7]
the world and the discussion over
[9]
taxation has dominated recent elections
[11]
in the united states and europe most
[13]
countries now levy income tax which is
[16]
paid at various rates based on the
[17]
country's tax regulations income tax is
[20]
a type of tax that is levied on a

person's or a company's net income this

governments and must be filed annually
[29]
by the individual
[30]
sweden collected the highest income tax
[33]
in 2019 with persons with the highest
[36]
incomes paying more than 50 percent of
[38]
their taxable income the income taxes in
[41]
northern europe and the north atlantic
[43]
are often higher on the other side some
[46]
countries have very low or no income
[48]
taxes these countries are either tax
[50]
havens or have economies that are
[52]
heavily reliant on natural resources
[55]
like oil these oil-rich countries
[57]
revenues stabilize their economies to
[59]
the point where they can avoid
[60]
collecting income tax from their
[62]
citizens the oil-rich gulf area and the
[64]
caribbean islands are home to countries
[66]
with zero income tax rates these
[69]
countries are well known around the
[70]
world as preferred investment and
[72]
expatriate destinations join us on a
[75]

[77]
with no income tax
[79]
[Music]
[81]
10. qatar qatar is a small but
[84]
prosperous country that made its fortune
[86]
in the oil business its culture is
[88]
conservative but thanks to foreign
[90]
investment and influence it is rapidly
[93]
modernizing and of course the
[95]
government's oil and gas revenues allow
[97]
it to stay afloat without having to
[99]
charge an income tax
[100]
qaddar is an intriguing country because
[102]
of its high degree of development and
[104]
importance in global politics it has the
[107]
greatest per capita gdp in the world and
[110]
is widely regarded as the middle east's
[112]
most developed country qatar is a
[114]
relatively calm and pleasant area to
[116]
live and it is the only gulf country
[118]
that allows foreigners to stay
[120]
permanently however unlike most nations
[123]
without an income tax it is still
[125]
difficult for foreigners to obtain
[127]
permanent residence because the
[129]
conditions are stringent and there are
[130]
few lawyers that specialize in this
[132]
field to be considered you must have
[135]
resided in the country for at least 20
[137]
years and speak arabic fluently
[142]
9. oman because of its oil and gas
[146]
business oh man like most of the middle
[148]
eastern countries on this list is a
[150]
wealthy and entrepreneurial country that
[152]
does not require an income tax in
[154]
addition despite its vast oil and gas
[157]
reserves oman has made a concerted
[159]
effort to diversify its economy and
[162]
expand its market for investors
[164]
searching for new prospects in the gulf
[166]
this makes it a great option to the uae
[168]
on its website the amani government even
[171]
offers an investor residence visa
[173]
specifics such as minimum investments
[176]
aren't readily available and none of the
[178]
lawyers i spoke within oman specialize
[180]
in this field because a man like most
[183]
affluent middle eastern governments
[185]
isn't in desperate need of foreign
[186]
capital expats who want to relocate
[189]
their usually need a job or relatives in
[191]
the country because armani culture is
[193]
fairly conservative living there might
[195]
be a huge adjustment to buy a bottle of
[198]
wine you must first obtain a personal
[200]
liquor license from a local police
[202]
station oman is an interesting
[204]
possibility among tax-free countries but
[207]
most nomad capitalists aren't interested
[209]
in living there long term
[214]
8. nauru
[216]
nauru is a micronesia island country
[218]
that was given the moniker pleasant
[220]
island by european sailors but
[222]
unfortunately the island does not appear
[224]
to live up to its moniker most people
[226]
are only familiar with nauru as the site
[229]
of a contentious australian run
[231]
detention center for asylum seekers
[233]
although naouru boasts many of the
[235]
lovely traits that attract visitors to
[237]
other pacific islands the island's
[240]
economy has been devastated by the
[241]
phosphate mining industry due to rising
[244]
sea levels it may potentially be sinking
[246]
into the pacific ocean
[248]
because to the government's last ditch
[250]
efforts to keep the economy afloat nauru
[253]
is one of the world's countries with no
[255]
taxes now roone might not be your best
[257]
pick if you're seeking for a calm tax
[259]
hideaway in the south pacific
[264]
7. monaco
[266]
monaco has become a playground for the
[268]
european elite due to its status as one
[270]
of the top tax-free countries in the
[272]
world
[273]
this beautiful country on the french
[275]
riviera is safe and wealthy but it
[277]
levies no income tax on its residents or
[279]
citizens furthermore because the country
[282]
attracts high income tax adverse
[284]
individuals it will very certainly
[286]
remain among the countries with no
[288]
income tax in the foreseeable future
[290]
it's also one of the more
[291]
straightforward tax-free countries to
[294]
join although you'll have to spend
[295]
several million dollars to establish
[297]
your riches in order to become a
[299]
resident the residency process is quite
[302]
simple due to the popularity of the
[303]
resort
[304]
living tax-free in monaco may be the
[307]
appropriate decision for individuals who
[309]
prefer european flair to island life
[312]
[Music]
[315]
6. maldive
[317]
imagine being able to live in an
[318]
overwater bungalow without paying any
[321]
income taxes in the maldives a small
[324]
island nation in the indian ocean you
[326]
can potentially do that the maldive
[328]
doesn't see the necessity for an income
[330]
tax because of its numerous and
[332]
expensive resorts while spending your
[334]
days tax-free in the maldives may appear
[337]
dreamy at first
[338]
remaining there for an extended period
[340]
of time is nearly impossible to apply
[343]
for citizenship or permanent residency
[345]
you must be a sunny muslim even if you
[348]
are a muslim there is no scheme for
[350]
foreigners to become permanent residents
[352]
let alone citizens in the country while
[355]
you won't have to worry about triggering
[356]
tax obligations while lounging at the
[358]
cent regis most people won't be able to
[361]
afford to relocate to the maldives
[366]
5. kuwait
[368]
kuwait like many of the gulf countries
[370]
on this list does not need to charge an
[372]
income tax because of its thriving oil
[374]
business it's also one of the world's
[376]
most expat friendly countries kuwait
[379]
city is largely americanized and simple
[381]
to traverse with foreign nationals
[383]
accounting for two-thirds of the
[385]
population while i enjoyed visiting and
[387]
doing business in kuwait acquiring
[390]
permanent residency in the nation
[392]
usually necessitates having kuwaiti
[394]
family or regular employment there it
[396]
also has no need for for investment thus
[399]
citizenship through investment is not an
[401]
option it's nearly impossible to live
[403]
permanently in kuwait's tax-free refuge
[406]
so i wouldn't build your tax plan here
[411]
4. cayman islands the cayman islands
[414]
beautiful beaches like those of the
[416]
bahamas attract enough tourists to keep
[419]
the government viable without the need
[421]
for income tax
[422]
however if you plan to stay there for a
[424]
long time be prepared to invest a
[426]
significant sum of money if you want to
[429]
live in grand cayman you'll need to earn
[431]
145 000
[433]
a year and invest at least six hundred
[436]
thousand dollars in real estate or local
[438]
businesses and then you'll have to wait
[440]
another eight years for permanent
[441]
residency
[443]
furthermore as in most caribbean
[445]
countries the more money you invest the
[447]
easier it is to gain permanent residency
[450]
if you want to relocate to one of the
[452]
less popular islands such as cayman brac
[454]
you can invest a little less if you have
[457]
the funds to invest in becoming a
[458]
permanent resident the cayman islands
[460]
could be an appealing zero tax choice
[466]
3. brunei
[467]
this tiny sultanate on borneo malaysia's
[470]
largest island has enough oil wealth to
[473]
avoid paying income tax brunei on the
[476]
other hand is far more difficult to live
[478]
in than bahrain or the bahamas
[480]
when i first visited brunei several
[482]
years ago i was not a fan it is not very
[485]
welcoming to foreigners and the
[487]
administration is to put it bluntly
[489]
oppressive and totalitarian
[491]
due to local regulations and enforcement
[493]
methods i even encountered a fellow
[495]
expat who was afraid to communicate with
[497]
me
[498]
permanent residency and citizenship are
[501]
also out of the question unless you can
[503]
get the sultan's blessing brunei
[505]
primarily serves as an example of how
[507]
countries that do not levy in income tax
[509]
are not necessarily hotbeds of economic
[512]
freedom
[515]
2. bahrain
[517]
bahrain was one of the first persian
[519]
gulf countries to discover oil on its
[521]
soil with the discovery of oil it has
[523]
become one of the world's wealthiest
[525]
countries and one of just a few without
[527]
an income tax it is also rather simple
[530]
to live there while i am not especially
[532]
fond of manama it is a well-developed
[534]
city with a significant expat community
[537]
the issue with bahrain and many other
[539]
gulf republics is that obtaining
[541]
permanent residency is tough you must be
[544]
retired invest one hundred thirty-five
[546]
thousand 000 in real estate or invest
[549]
270 000 in a bahraini firm to acquire
[553]
permanent residence in bahrain while it
[555]
is possible to obtain permanent
[557]
residency in bahrain citizenship is a
[560]
different issue you must have lived in
[562]
the nation for 25 years and speak arabic
[565]
fluently if you're seeking for a
[567]
tax-free permanent residence in the gulf
[569]
bahrain could be an option but don't
[571]
expect to receive a second passport
[573]
there
[577]
1. the bahamas
[579]
it's no surprise that the bahamas
[581]
doesn't need to levy income tax to make
[583]
ends meet as one of the world's most
[585]
popular tourist destinations
[587]
the bahamas is also one of the most
[589]
habitable countries with no income tax
[592]
thanks to its beautiful beaches and fast
[594]
growing economy it's not difficult to
[596]
set up a second residence there as long
[598]
as you have the funds it's as easy as
[601]
paying one thousand dollars at the
[602]
immigration office to get a temporary
[604]
residence permit and it's renewable
[606]
every year the bahamas on the other hand
[609]
have recently begun cracking down on
[611]
foreign residents who use the temporary
[614]
permit to avoid making investments if
[616]
you want to live there long term you'll
[618]
need to invest at least 250 000 in real
[621]
estate to be on the right road as a
[624]
general rule the more money you invest
[626]
in the bahamas the more likely the
[628]
immigration office will treat you
[630]
positively while obtaining permanent
[632]
residence is mostly a matter of
[633]
financial investment obtaining
[635]
citizenship is a different issue the
[638]
country has toyed with the idea of a
[640]
costly citizenship by investment program
[643]
but nothing has materialized as of yet
[645]
you won't have to pay much in taxes in
[647]
the bahamas but you'll need a lot of
[649]
money to live there in the long run
[651]
though paying no taxes while relaxing on
[653]
the beach might be worth it
[658]
investing in any country is influenced
[660]
by a number of factors the most
[662]
important of which is taxation as a
[664]
result these are some of the countries
[666]
in which you can readily invest i hope
