Relocation for High Net-worth Individuals

 

Recently we have seen an increasing number of high net-worth individual clients world-wide interested in relocating to a new domicile country, due to economic, political, physical, legal and tax uncertainty as well as world-wide exchange of information initiatives resulting in financial information reaching their domestic tax authorities. A trend which the COVID-19 pandemic has increased.

Some of the most frequently used schemes attracting interest from HNWI clients are:

 

Andorra

 

Andorra offers several residency by investment programs. The most popular one requires a permanent and minimum investment of EUR 400’000 (approximately USD 475’000) in either real estate, participation in a local company, debt issued by a local company, a public debt instrument from Andorra, or securities with the Andorran National Finance Institute.

Another investment program provides residency to investors in order to operate a business with a minimum of 85% of the business outside of the country. A business plan will be required and the headquarters has to be in Andorra and may only hire one employee (otherwise another program will have to be chosen).

For both programs, the investor will have to produce evidence of sufficient means by proving a yearly income of 300% of the minimum salary (currently about EUR 13’000 or approximately USD 15’000) plus an additional 100% for each family member. Residents are subject to worldwide income and capital gains taxes (only applicable for holdings of over 25% of a company) of up to 10%. There are no net worth or inheritance taxes in Andorra. There are no gift taxes in Andorra either, but capital gains taxes may be applicable to the donor when gifts are not to close family members.

Further comments 

 

Some additional points have to be taken into consideration when planning a relocation: The current country of residence may impose an exit tax on your leaving the country. Lately quite a number of countries have enacted laws trying to deter individuals or companies from leaving their tax jurisdiction. In many cases the tax authorities of the jurisdiction which is being left will also monitor or even audit the individual leaving or his family as to the substance of the relocation, i.e. check whether the center of vital interest as such has really moved away from their jurisdiction or not. The enter of vital interest includes establishing where the family of the individual in question is, where the social ties including club memberships are, the positions held, participation in political and cultural events, places of business and management of the family wealth, including where the pets are kept. They may also check whether the personal and economic relations to the new jurisdictions are in fact closer than to the jurisdictions being left. If the tax authorities come to the conclusion that the relocation does not have enough substance, i.e. that the center of vital interest and/or the personal and economic relations to the new jurisdiction are less than to their own jurisdiction, they may try to continue to tax the individual leaving as if he/she still remained resident. 

Entrepreneurs may also encounter the following issues: If there are participations in the jurisdictions being left, dividend distributions may be subject to a withholding tax. Depending on a potential double tax treaty with the new jurisdiction, the impact of this withholding may however be reduced. Further, if the individual relocating to the new jurisdiction remains in full control, the new jurisdiction may want to tax the company as a local company due to place of effective management rules: The place of effective management is the place where key management and commercial decisions of a business are effectively made. The place of effective management will usually be where the most senior person or group of persons (for example a board of directors)takes its decisions.

Many jurisdictions also have non-residency or temporary residence programs with a minimum number of days per year to be spent in that jurisdiction, but under the condition of not staying more than roughly half the year in the jurisdiction or any other jurisdiction, as well as not having any other tax residence. Some of those jurisdictions even issue tax residence confirmations for qualifying non-residents. This article has not reflected any of these programs given the increased risk that other jurisdictions, especially the one of the last tax residence of the taxpayer, will not accept such a non-residency program as a regular new tax residence. The risk is even higher when considerable economic substance of an investor remains in the jurisdiction he/she is leaving. When this is the case, such jurisdictions may continue to tax the taxpayer fully, as if he/she had never left.

Whereas many of these relocation programs provide considerable tax advantages, careful prerelocation tax planning based on tax advice obtained in the old and the new jurisdiction is strongly recommended.
