I have a base there now so quite a lot of time mainly working from home. Banking in both EU and Gib. EU banks updated to Gib address, no problems so far.How much time do you actually spend there? Gibraltar is turbo-small, with an EU passport you can disappear into the EU for unlimited amounts of time without issues. Do you bank in Gibraltar or in the EU?
So is this any better than what I can do with paraguay or dubai papers for a lot cheaper?I have a base there now so quite a lot of time mainly working from home. Banking in both EU and Gib. EU banks updated to Gib address, no problems so far.
If we think legally I can spend 1 day in Gib and then run around EU but have to be sure that I don't trigger tax residence anywhere (ex. neighbouring Spain). But as you mentioned if you have a EU passport it doesn't really matter. If you want to be safe make sure you "buy coffee" every morning in Gib and that these transactions are visible on your bank statement.
For me yes because I don't have to waste my life living in the barbie desert. Cheaper or no - it depends really, if your personal income is for example mid 6 to 7 figures per year I believe it's worth it. You're paying around 65k (tax+flat rent) and enjoying the benefits of having SoF and free movement of your funds which is rare nowadays.So is this any better than what I can do with paraguay or dubai papers for a lot cheaper?
requires that you live there right ?No problem with banking in Gibraltar.
If needed you can also have some basic retail banking in neighbouring Spain. There is also local Xapo if you are into crypto.
Xapo is pretty much open to anybody. Turicum bank I think as well, but I would not expect them to be cheap. Gibraltar International Bank and Novus are more selective, you will need to proof some ties to gibraltar to open a bank account.requires that you live there right ?
Yes you need a residence permit to open an account. Ties to Gibraltar - they won't open in 90% of the cases.requires that you live there right ?
For 500k? Which bank?Yes you need a residence permit to open an account. Ties to Gibraltar - they won't open in 90% of the cases.
Maybe some private bank can onboard you with a 500k deposit but what's the point if you are not a Gib resident. You can get Liechtenstein/Switzerland banking for the same amount
Turicum, Bank Jacob SafraFor 500k? Which bank?
If you place your money with a bank in one of these countries you risk that you have to pay withholding tax right ?Maybe some private bank can onboard you with a 500k deposit but what's the point if you are not a Gib resident. You can get Liechtenstein/Switzerland banking for the same amount
No. I'm not sure about Switzerland, but all other mentioned countries - 100% you don't have any withholding taxes etc.If you place your money with a bank in one of these countries you risk that you have to pay withholding tax right ?
yeah its just one solution out of many.From what I can gather in this thread, Gibraltar isn’t necessarily the 'new star' but rather an alternative choice for structuring a company.
I think many of these jurisdictions, Gibraltar included, are just as good as they used to be. Now it just requires knowing what you’re doing, and above all, it’s not the same as before when a simple company setup could provide extensive privacy and significant tax savings. It requires rethinking and relatively large, professional setups - which can be costly.
100% agree.Good for CAT2 residence only imho.
