I'm a french tax payer and French national and I can't express how a P-A-I-N I-N T-H-E *-S-* France is becoming. I turned Digital Nomad +3 years ago and I'm learning so much about your material. I'm off to check and do my own research and diligence around Mauritious Island. Cheers fellas !
Bro pleaaaase dit moi où est mieux 😭. Jai une double citoyenneté, Canada + France, mais les DEUX ME FONT PEUR!!! Its terrible here and looks terrible in France :$
I just left France because I'm poor but they still want tax and national insurance from me. In the UK where I now am tax resident it doesn't start till £16000 or some such, earned in the UK.

As a french citizen who've been to the US many times, I'll tell you. France and the USA are very similar in that they're great for leisure and tourism, but no so much as a fiscal resident. Countries can't be everything and have limitations, people have to factor that in their life or business goals.
As I understood it from my limited research on the French tax system, due to having family living there. It doesn't really matter where you live or where your companies are registered. If you're a French tax payer, they have global taxation.
@@dr.perfectsmile4175 Haha thanks for answering this gives me some hope lol . I’m hoping to purchase an apt in Paris in 5 years or a home in the south. I really enjoy France
France is way over rated. It's a communiste country. Healthcare: doctor ms dont accept new patient, youd better go to turkey or romanoa. Education : private school sadly home school I forbidden.
The government is the worst manager of money. Even if the taxes do go in part to pay for/subsidize services, it is far better that people keep that money to spend. I would love to help French people subvert their draconian government
As a Portuguese with the right to declare Frech citizenship, I will pass even if I could get access to interesting services like cheap education and good healthcare. The reason is just one, health tax and a possible exit tax in the future. Portuguese citizenship could be a problem by itself once the EU decides to be "special" like the US.
As a French national and French Tax Payer, I'm just considering now a Tax-Residency and Tax based passport somewhere FAR FROM the EU. Somewhere small, friendly and willing to stay this way for at least the next 10 years or so.
I was considering Portugal a while ago since they were very keen on bringing crypto investors onboard. Now when there’s a new tax incoming, I am no longer interested. But I do like Portugal :)
@@ladlem3 Georgia still has 0% on crypto :). You can go to Portugal if you structure well. I can come back to Portugal in a few years and pay the same taxes under the NHR, but the structure needs to be clever.
Belgium is only a de jure country, it de facto does not exist instead 3 countries exist which is Wallonia, Brussels Region and whatever that Dutch region is called. The only reason why Belgium exists is to act as a buffer between France and the Netherlands

10:07 “[France] with a large bureaucracy, and ehh so many restrictions - they have never been competitive in any way” 😂 they are “competitive” in the opposite way: how to squeeze max out of their heritage to live idle life.
Wow, the idea that a country may dictate where I can live is infuriating to me. How dare they dictate terms about my personal live. You should list all the countries that do or plan to do this so we can be vigilant.
It does not dictate where you can live, it only regulates how much you can write off in taxes by living somewhere else if you are still a french citizen.
@@nomadcapitalist Would like to know your perspective on Italy’s digital nomad visa program, plus listen to you uncovering some of the flat-rate tax incentives that exist in Italy for people/businesses earning high figures. Also would like to know your perspective on Canadians becoming an Italian citizen, living in Italy, and then using another EU country (or Italy itself) to move a company from Canada, or at least setup a branch/division somewhere in the EU, as part of your mantra to go where you’re treated best. Thanks! 🙌🏻
regarding canadians if you are out of country you pay pay 25 percent on all income any sugestions on voiding this lso how does compare to us citizens is this unique to canada i am living in thialand my us freind dont pay this
As a Canadian living in a country that doesn’t have a tax treaty with Canada, you pay 25% on CANADIAN sourced income, and this % can be negotiated down depending on the size of your income. Non-Canadian sourced income isn’t taxed in Canada, so if you reside in a country with no personal income tax, you won’t have any tax obligation. If you reside in a country that does have a tax treaty with Canada, you pay that % income tax, which is always less than 25%. If you’re resident in France for example you’d pay 15%. You need to consult a good tax advisor.

At least France 🇫🇷 gives you something eg healthcare , reasonable cost of education , and pensions . In the USA 🇺🇸 no deal
Property taxes in France are much lower than the U.S.
Countries that keep increasing taxes are _CLEARLY_ over-spending. They need to learn to properly actually budget...
U.S. is number one in that 🤣🤣🤣
... and since they won't learn, the only option is to avoid them
this is the “you’ll own nothing” that the world economic forum has been talking about
It looks like the start of a sick trend. Wait and see
As I understood it from my limited research on the French tax system, due to having family living there. It doesn't really matter where you live or where your companies are registered.

Makes me sad because I would love to live in France. Seems like the tax there is a nightmare
There's always a way if you really want it.

As a French, if you're wealthy it's a nice place to spend your money. Not so much to make it.

Very good post,learned a lot from this,thank you.
Glad to hear that.
Could easily see the EU imposing this type of system eventually.

Love this video. Raising taxes is a great way to decrease investment. That's why countries like Ireland and Portugal are so smart
This and the "exit tax" 🤦♂️
9:29 Portugal wants to start taxing on crypto.
I would love to hear your perspective on the Dutch tax system and if there are legal ways available there to lower your taxes.
I'm so happy that I moved to a so called third world country when I retired; it takes some balls to live like a King. Pura Vida
I once heard an Englishman refer to Belgium as a "pretty much a non country"
That Briton was absolutely correct : Belgium is divided into two main nationalities , cultures and languages who do not like each other AT ALL !
Belgium is only a de jure country, it de facto does not exist instead 3 countries exist which is Wallonia, Brussels Region and whatever that Dutch region is called. The only reason why Belgium exists is to act as a buffer between France and the Netherlands

Is Belgium a "real" country?
there are no nations there is only one world goverment
Great question
Has Gérard Depardieu not moved to Russia.
that's what I thought too
I think he moved to Belgium, then Russia
I doubt it. He spoke strongly against Putin Ukraine invasion. He gain Russian citizenship from Putin but he's a Dubaï resident.
Didn't the french actor guy go to Russia?
