Changing tax residency

[slade991]

Hello,

I'm currently tax resident in a country with a lot of taxes ( 35%) and a tax residency policy where you become tax resident if you spend more than 183 days / year, which i do.
I was talking with chatgpt to try to figure out if it was possible to become tax resident of another country without having to physically move.

He suggested the following:

Country	Tax on Foreign Income?	Can You Become a Tax Resident Remotely?	Key Benefits

Panama

No tax on foreign income

Yes, with a bank deposit or investment

No physical stay required, tax-friendly

UAE

No income tax at all

Yes, via company setup (Free Zone)

No tax, easy setup, business-friendly

Paraguay

No tax on foreign income

Yes, via Permanent Residency

Low cost, no physical stay needed

Georgia

No tax on foreign income

Yes, via Individual Entrepreneur status

1% tax up to $155K, no stay needed

Malta

No tax on foreign income

Yes, via Global Residence Program

EU access, tax-friendly structure

Sorry for the terrible table formatting, i cannot seem to be able to format it correctly.
So basically my question is, is that true ?

Can i pursue any of those options in those country without leaving where i am currently and switch my tax residency ?

He says paraguay and panama especially have Zero tax and NO visits required

Thank you for your time!

In short, yes you can also become tax resident in another country. But that does not make you not tax resident where you actually live. In the worst case, you'll end up paying taxes in two countries due to the lack of a treaty.
