Talking about taxation probably isn't the most exciting task on your to-do list when you move abroad. But once you're settled and worked a little on your tan, you might want to make sure all is well as your formally become a tax resident of your new home country. Things can get quite complicated when understanding expat taxes abroad.

Making the right financial decisions as a expat is critical for success in a new country and its easy to make mistakes and difficult to find trusted contacts in a foreign language. Expatriates have the added complication of having to deal with the tax rules for more than one country at a time, when global tax scrutiny is at its highest. There may be some concessions to look forward to, however getting it wrong can lead to an unwelcome and unexpected tax bill for you or your heirs.

Why effective tax planning is so important

When it comes to savings and investments, is your main objective to preserve your wealth, provide an income or generate growth? Perhaps it is all three? How do you complete a tax return or should you find someone to do all the heavy lifting for you?

Whatever the answers, tax planning plays an important role in protecting and making the most of what you have. There are numerous benefits to strategic tax planning, especially for expatriates who have cross-border considerations. Its important to understand double taxation agreements and what the benefits are in both countries.

Getting it wrong can not only lead to an unwelcome and unexpected tax bill for you or your heirs, you could end up facing a tax investigation. It is important to make sure your tax planning is not done in isolation or as an afterthought - it should be a fundamental part of your investment, pensions, estate planning and overall wealth management approach.
