Living abroad: Why ask the experts for help?

Global moving involves many complex issues, especially when it comes to financial assets. Sometimes understanding the destination country’s tax and fiscal laws can be difficult, making help from global moving experts essential.

The help of an expert is especially important (fundamental!) for those who have income from different sources, or high and diversified assets.

An expert can help you understand the tax and fiscal laws and regulations of the country you are moving to and help you deal with issues such as tax returns, insurance requirements, and importing your goods.

They will ensure that you are complying with all local laws and regulations and minimizing your exposure to tax and legal risks.

In addition, experts in global financial planning can help you understand the possible agreements that may exist between nations that offer special conditions for certain people, such as non-habitual resident status, offered by the Portuguese government, which may be more beneficial in some cases than in others.

Another important question that often raises doubts concerns issues related to pensions and passive income, such as the tax rate that must be paid in the home country and the new country.

Importance of tax security when living abroad

Tax security is a major concern in global moving. When you move to another country, you will be subject to a new set of tax and fiscal laws. It is important to ensure that you are complying with all local tax and fiscal laws to avoid legal and financial problems.

Customer Testimonial

Many of our clients tell us about their feelings of peace of mind when they have the support of specialists to take care of their tax issues in Portugal. It is worth mentioning that practically all of our consulting plans in the premium category offer the tax consultation service included in the value of the service (see conditions with our consultants).

The testimonial below, is from a 34 years old client, who acquired the digital nomad visa in Portugal and wanted to share with us his experience in hiring tax consulting services from BDO. For privacy reasons, he did not want to be identified.

“My experience was quick, I only had one consultation with them, but it was fundamental to appease my anxiety, because I needed to understand how my tax life was seen by the Portuguese authority. I received all my income from Brazil, but I was already living in Portugal. The BDO consultation gave me the peace of mind I was seeking by assuring me that my situation was not irregular. I was in a sort of tax limbo, but I did not need to do the IRS in Portugal yet. Only through the consultation with BDO I realized that, according to my income, it would be much more beneficial for me to do the tax return in Portugal, because here I could enjoy the non-habitual resident status and pay less tax than in Brazil.”
