Hello everyone!

my name is Nestor, Im 19 years old, I work online as a programmer. I would really like to move to Uruguay using rentista program. I made some research about it and everything seems clear to me. Nevertheless, I am a bit confused about the "Proof of income" part. What are sufficient ways to prove it?

Thank you in advance!

Hello Nestor, as a retiree, l had to prove my income by providing my notary with pension statements and corresponding bank statement entries. The notary then makes a notarized document to present to imigraciones. In your case, l would imagine you do it with salary slips.

Hi Nestor, if you work as a programmer, then you are not a "rentista" (a person whose income does not come from work, but from dividends, real estate earnings, retirement etc) . You will have to register as a sole proprietor in Uruguay to develop your activity. Export services income is exempt from local VAT and other charges, but you will have to pay yearly income tax.
