No tax residence: how much you would pay on your LLC profit

The 'perpetual nomad': if no country treats you as tax resident, nobody taxes the LLC profit. The most sought-after box and the hardest to hold: countries do not stop treating you as resident because you say so, but when you stop meeting their tests.

What we assume
  • No country treats you as resident (under 183 days in each, no permanent home or centre of interests anywhere).
  • The LLC still files Form 5472 every year in the US.
What can change it
  • Spain, for example, keeps treating you as resident if your spouse and children live there or your centre of economic interests is there, even if you travel all year.
  • Without a tax residence, banks and payment processors increasingly ask for a residence certificate you cannot provide.
