Optimize taxes: Strategies for international business activities
Use the territorial tax principle for tax-optimized profits
In many countries that follow the territorial tax principle, both companies and individuals are taxed primarily on domestic income. Accordingly, foreign sources of income, such as profits from foreign branches, dividends or service income, are only subject to tax if they are transferred to the respective country or are considered to have been transferred. If this income has already been taxed in the country of origin, double taxation can be avoided.
The remittance basis of taxation and the non-dom status
In the context of the non-dom status, the so-called “remittance basis of taxation” plays a central role. This term makes it clear that only foreign income that has been transferred (“remitted”) to the country of residence or consumed there is subject to tax.
Target group for the non-dom status
The non-dom status is particularly suitable for people who are internationally active both privately and professionally and who earn foreign income of more than €250,000. A key criterion is the possibility of generating passive income abroad.
Particular interest for company founders
The Non Dom status offers attractive advantages to company founders and entrepreneurs who generate high sales with foreign subsidiaries and want to receive these tax-free.
Example scenario: Tax optimization through a US LLC
Let’s assume you set up a tax-free LLC in the USA. This generates commissions of $500,000 by working with Asian partners (you can find more information on setting up a company in the USA here). As a Non Dom status holder, you enjoy complete tax exemption on these $500,000 as long as they are not transferred to an account in your country of residence.
Disclaimer:
Please note that this is only a general overview and individual tax advice from an expert is required to assess the specific impact of the Non Dom status on your situation.
Tax-optimized choice of residence: paradises, alternatives and important aspects
The search for a residence with an optimal tax burden is a relevant topic for many people. Below we look at various options and the factors associated with them.
Tax havens with 0% tax:
Countries such as Vanuatu, Bahamas, Bahrain, British Virgin Islands and Cayman Islands lure with the promise of no income tax at all.
Countries with a low tax burden:
An attractive alternative is offered by countries such as Paraguay, Oman, Montenegro, Malta, Georgia, Albania, Serbia, Uruguay, UAE, Singapore and Mauritius. They are characterized by low income taxes and corporate taxes and at the same time offer:
• Higher standard of living and infrastructure: The quality of life and infrastructure in these countries are often significantly better compared to tax havens.
• Greater opportunities for international activities: The connection to the global economy and the opportunities for international business relations are better developed.
• Lower reputation risk: These countries generally enjoy a better international reputation.
Residence and company formation strategy:
The combination of residence in a low-tax country and the formation of a company in an offshore company with a low tax rate can further reduce the tax burden. However, the following applies:
Taxation of profit distributions: Profits distributed from the offshore company to the country of residence are generally subject to taxation.
Complexity and legislation: Implementing and managing this strategy requires in-depth knowledge of tax law and international corporate structures.

A critical look at different lifestyles:
Standard of living and culture:
In addition to tax considerations, standard of living and culture should also play a role in the choice of residence. Factors such as climate, geography, language, culture, accessibility of education and healthcare are crucial to the quality of life.
Geopolitical situation:
The current world situation is unstable and the threat of crises and conflicts is real. When choosing your country of residence, you should also consider geopolitical factors such as political stability, crime rates and especially the war propaganda of individual countries that even risk a third world war. Can you survive in Mauritius, BVI or the Cayman Islands when Armageddon comes?
In today’s world, we are faced with the choice of which country we want to live in. Should we choose a country that is rich in natural resources such as gold or minerals? Or live in a country that is one of the strongest economies through international trade, such as Singapore or Hong Kong?
These countries offer attractive economic opportunities, but are also threatened by the danger of being taken over by other major powers such as China or the USA.
The USA is known as a (former) empire that actively represents its interests worldwide and, when in doubt, intervenes militarily to pursue its own goals, often under the guise of the “common good”.
Andorra, on the other hand, boasts low taxes. But this advantage comes at the cost of total state control. Surveillance cameras on every corner and the ability for neighbors to withdraw permits create a climate of fear and paternalism.
Botswana, on the other hand, offers a quiet and safe environment. But the lack of dynamism and slow pace of life could seem monotonous to some people.
In some countries, such as Germany, France and the USA, the government seems to be increasingly taking control of the lives of citizens. Restrictions on freedom of expression, paternalism and even the regulation of diet are met with criticism by many people.
In addition, some of these countries actively promote war propaganda, which leads to further tensions and conflicts in the world.
For people who value traditional values, the question arises whether they want to live in a country like Germany, where identity politics and gender issues are strongly promoted. History books and children’s books are being rewritten to take 72 different gender identities into account.
In addition to the ideological aspects, practical factors also play a role in choosing where to live:
• Education: Where are there good international schools for children?
• Work: Where are the chances of getting a good job and where can you best realize your potential as an entrepreneur?
• People: Where are the people friendly, helpful and do they speak the language?
• Finance: In which countries can you conduct your banking safely and conveniently? Which countries participate in the CRS/OECD and exchange information with the country of residence?
Conclusion:
The decision for the “right” country to live in is complex and individual. There is no one-size-fits-all answer, as various factors such as personal values, life goals and priorities must be taken into account.
It is important to find out about the different life models and their advantages and disadvantages in order to be able to make an informed decision.
