Right now no.
But if you have anything in mind let me know I will add that.

If you’re not a uk tax resident you can easily bring your UK Ltd profits to zero via bonus or salary so you don’t pay UK corporate tax (only applies to income after becoming a non UK tax resident). You don’t need to move your company or get another tax residency to reduce UK taxes… it’s advisable to do but the UK law is straight forward for minimising tax exposure there

I used that in india.

As far as I know for india 90 days one will not work.

DTAs are mostly used for disagreements between countries and to offset taxes paid in one jurisdiction. Focus on not being a tax resident where you don’t want to pay taxes

you need to pay tax on your salary in UK

If you are a tax resident of the UK, yes

I am non tax resident and was still paying PAYE

You have a bad accountant then

yeah, I was using Ember and they weren't focusing on non-residents

anyway, I am in the process of shutting it down

Is anyone here an eCommerce specialist?
I’d like to ask a few questions about tax residency in Paraguay and selling in Europe through my LLC on Amazon.

That is factually try, however, need to check if your non UK residency country will treat your UK LP as tax resident itself under local jurisdiction. Most likely it will, so local corp tax laws will apply. (This would apply for UAE residents as well)

Ah didn't know that was possible. Would definitely help keep things simple. Thank you 🙏

Has anyone used Doola to open up a US LCC as a freelancer? Or Stripe Atlas? What has your experience been?
I'm currently looking at options online to setup a company and setting up a US LLC seems like the best first step for a freelancer (maybe I'm wrong? Would love to hear what others are doing). Of course, the reason being tax friendliness and access to additional bank/finance services

i used easyfilling

What others are doing should not matter to you. Tax is a very personal affair and changes depending a ton of factors (citizenship, residency, tax residency, type of business, how you’re paid, etc).

US LLC depends a lot on how you structure it and in which state

I used Firstbase like 5 years ago and wyomingllcattorney for companies since

Turns out being a non-resident Philippine citizen makes you tax-free for all foreign income, then you can get a Wyoming LLC... that makes you effectively tax-free for life.

Just have to get that Philippine citizenship.

You mean if you're a Philippine citizen not living in the Philippines you don't have to pay Philippine tax? If that's what you mean, that's pretty much the default. You still have to watch out not to become a tax resident somewhere else.

Like 99% of countries in the world...

Not Australia, we're taxed on global income. 🥹

Well if that's the case for these 99% of countries, then that's good :)

I used Stripe Atlas, quite easy to fill the form online, straightforward and intuitive

Is that only for setting up the business, or for handling taxes as well?

I also used Stripe Atlas to set up my LLC. Now, I’m curious about how to handle taxes with it?

You’re right, for incorporation. For tax filing, I haven’t done yet. See if this helps? It’s for Delaware Corp though

Has anyone used taxhackers.io?

Interesting! Would be happy to hear any experience

sounds like bad advice in general because it puts you into a legal grey area in many countries, plus it's going to make it hard to do banking with most banks if you have no tax residency. I've lived like this from 2014 - 2019, it's a pain 😂 it's much easier to just get tax residency in a country which does not tax you on income outside of its borders, that way everything is completely legal and regulated and you still don't pay taxes.

Yup, I agree with you

If you’re running an active business, either as a freelancer, or a director, isn’t getting untaxed income outside of the borders of the country you’re a resident of a gray area too? I mean: your residency country won’t tax you, but if the income is not earned in your country of residency, then it’s earned somewhere else. And that “somewhere else” probably wants a cut from your income. If “but they don’t care/enforce” is the answer, then it’s a gray area to me.

as long as you are not a tax resident of that «somewhere else» contury - there is no way they can tax you, unless that income was generated from that spacific country (like renting out an aparment there, receving dividents/royalties or some other specific and limited cases).

I agree that’s what happens “in practice”. But the legality of it requires you being able to prove that you never do any actual work anywhere.

that’s a bizare thing to worry about to be honest.

It depends on where you actually plan to spend time.

That depends on where you earn your income. For example in my case I earn it in the US, so I regularly complete the W8-BEN to declare that I'm not a tax resident there according to US law

I don’t know the rules of all countries in the world. But my general understanding is that such income paid by US-based employer would need to be taxed at the place where you do the actual work. I’m guessing there’s some good, practical reason why my accountant always warns me not to expense any coworking space outside of my tax residence country for more than 3 months.

If you have Paraguayan tax residency, which European country would you recommend for setting up an e-commerce business and selling across Europe? Does anyone have experience with this?

That would be Paraguay. In Paraguay the law clearly states that this income is tax free because it never even enters Paraguay.

If you have Paraguayan tax residency, which European country would you recommend for setting up an e-commerce business and selling across Europe? Does anyone have experience with this?

Interesting, seems like a good setup then.

Estonia or Romania

CHANGES TO THE URUGUAY TAX REGIME 🇺🇾

With the latest legislative change, here are some of the positive and negative changes from the Uruguayan tax residency and tax holiday regime in 2026

NEGATIVE:
- DECOUPLING of the tax holiday and tax residency requirements: The option of investing ~590k and staying 60 days in Uruguay is only available now for tax residency, but not for the tax holiday. Meaning you would be a tax resident without the exemption on foreign capital gains, dividends, rentals and interest for 11 years.

- Foreign-sourced capital gains and rentals, which were previously tax-free forever, are now also taxed at the 12% regular rate. Those on the tax holiday can keep the exemption

POSITIVE
- Besides 183 days in-country and 2 million USD Real Estate investment, there is now a 3rd option to obtain the tax holiday: Invest 100k USD yearly into a Uruguayan research and innovation fund, to be structured by the Uruguayan public administration

- Introduction of a transition regime after the 11 years are over. Now, residents will have the option of choosing between 2 regimes: 300k USD flat tax for 20 years, or a 50% tax reduction on foreign incomes (6% effective rate) for an additional 5 years. For the latter option, the person must invest another 1 million USD in real estate or continue investing 100k per year into the Uruguayan funds.

Noteworthy here: Uruguay can NO LONGER be considered a territorial tax-country!

Pre-2011, foreign sourced passive incomes were fully exempt for all residents under a truly territorial regime
Since 2011, "mobile capital" incomes, namely dividends and interest, were added as exceptions that were taxed even if foreign sourced. The tax holiday exempted them for new residents.
As of 2026, dividends, interest, capital gains and rentals are all taxed on a worldwide basis, with the exception for those on the tax holiday program

The country is now better qualified as a worldwide taxation country WITH a special temporary tax regime, as Portugal, Italy and Spain.

The issue with this setup is the bank account, its extremely difficult to have a decent one + the reputation

I’m (US based) attending a pricy conference in the UK, they’re charging me a 20% VAT, they sent me the invoice online, am I eligible for a VAT refund ?

we can solve the banking side, but yes, US LLC will def be easier vs EU setups

Yes UK or even US LLC are the best solution especially if Panama resident =0

I’d assume attending as part of a U.S. LLC would suffice

If you (you US legal entity) obtain UK vat number you can file a return and have the VAT paid refunded.
You can also claim refund after the fact, up to 4 years.

You can just File form VAT65A with HMRC

Thanks! Does it matter how I pay the invoice? If I pay on personal credit card for example

doesnt'matter

Yes

if all my clients are anonymous on telegram and pay through crypto. is it a problem for us pass through llc? was wondering is they ask for chats and source of income?

No better no, there's a special setups for this kind of shadow businesses

A CPA suggested this to me. Since I don't live in the USA, I will have 0% tax. What could be the problems with this?

Look, its easy if your business is legit nothing shadow than yes as IRS and any kind of administration doesn't care about anonymous client or being paid by crypto , the question is if you can justify your busness is Legit, in your case there's no bank KYC because you are using crypto so the unique issue here is if IRS suspect something and ask you to justify your activity ! Clear ?

ah okayy

strictly speaking you are also VAT liable if you provide services to eu private citizens

all of then are anon so i dont know where are they from

I understand but that doesn’t void your legal liability to do so

EU accept IP adresses as client location for VAT purpose

Imagine how much GDP could be created if all our entrepreneurial minds were not focused in on the detailed tiny little rules and regulations of what taxes apply across what jurisdictions under what circumstances etc. It’s such a drain on the world.

Other than UAE and Paraguay, what other counties are good options to set up as a tax residency without having to spend a lot of time being physically present in the country?

Cyprus

There are not many other candidates if your goal is to maintain your tax resident status while keeping traveling. Paraguay doesn't really have competition in this specific aspect.

What about Georgia

AFAIK they require 183 days stay per 12 months in the country to maintain tax resident status. In PY it is just a single day. Plus, there is huge difference between paying 1% vs 0% tax (almost no accounting needed).

I'm Italian but based in Dubai. Are there countries in Europe where I can open a company remotely and get a business bank account with it? I need an account to receive euros.

Try to apply for e residency in Estonia

Without even visiting? And how do I get business bank account there?

You can do that in Ireland too. And set up Revolut Business bank account online.

I already have a Wise account.. Revolut would be the same I guess.. I mean these are personal bank accounts.. I need business bank account and big transactions

Revolut has a business offering for enterprise. It’s different to personal banking. I use it for my own business. Connected to accounts software and payroll. And staff accounts so I can give my accountant access.

Do they accept Uae companies or only European ones?

No idea. I’ve never done business with UAE. Ask them.

Wise has good business accounts too. I have them. My concern will Revolut or Wise is parking large sums in these financial institutions. At least in Canada, they are not banks. Any missing money is not covered by insurance

Very valid concern. I had the same issue originally. I’m not familiar with Wise as it has no benefits for me. Wise is best for non-EU I think. But Revolut is a fully listened bank by ECB as of the last couple of years. And It’s now the largest bank in Ireland. Offers credit cards, mortgages, insurance products etc. Traditional banks in Ireland are cooked IMHO. Dinosaurs compared to neobanks like Revolut, N26, etc.

If you are based in Dubai (and I get you have emirates id and UAE company ) - why not go to UAE banks?

Wise doesn't accept Uae businesses

for SEPA payments? what is the solution that you found?

Banks in Cyprus will open that for you.. If you have good revenues..

thanks.

Welcome

hey, anyone know of any accountants in portugal that can help me to optimise my tax structure as a digital nomad who just recently moved here? ty!!

Check the sticky, they’re great

you should move with an optimization strategy in mind :)
