Good morning....I do kno u can live in Belize and bring in money tax free...so if you do have any monthly income, u can receive it here without anything taxed here in Belize. You will need to go to Belize immigration monthly to pay for your monthly immigration stamp. After a year, you can apply for Permanent Residency with the right to work. However, if you are working online...and bringing in your money from your USA bank account, you can work online, pay for your monthly immigration stamps and then eventually apply to be a permanent resident

THank you Wendy.  THat sounds pretty good. I wonder what the monthly immigration stamp amount is? And if Belize banks have as good interest rates as Ecuador. Cheers.

@klind65, Belize does have their QRP which is for 45 and older where you can earn income tax free income in the US up to a certain amount (I think it's $250K), plus you can bring your stuff in duty free as well.

Monthly immigration is currently us$100 per month
Not sure about bank rates

Hi Wendy
 
ok. thanks.  Would you know if it is possible to get organic fruit in Belize? (not sprayed with poisonous chemicals).  If so, where is it most popular/prevalent? Cheers.

I kno The Greenhouse grocery store in San Pedro carries some organic....u can figure out where you like to shop once you are here...u can grow a lot yourself too with our tropical climate

Thanks! I do want to grow tomatoes and cucumbers and lettuces... but the fruits are top priority! I love Mamey Sapote!!

Immigration stamp varies by country, you can find it on the Belize Embassy Visa page. I currently am able to get a 3 month visa when I go in. Bank accounts are many steps to get, interest rates...not really. And you cannot get a mortgage.
