Taxes for Expats |
| - The
Foreign Earned Income Exclusion coupled with Offshore eCommerce equals
tax free living abroad. "There is another way to make more than $80,000
net and still reduce our taxes to zero. By using offshore eCommerce coupled
with a Panamanian International Business Corporation (IBC,) we can make
any amount of money into the IBC and still keep our tax basis at zero.
If we purchase our house in the name of the IBC, we can rent the house

are an expat you may end up paying not only local taxes in the country

| Want
to Really "Escape"? Start Your Own Tax Free Small Business |
| - Start
Your Own Tax Free Small Business - by John Schroder - If it is going to

located in one of the tax free zones in the Dominican Republic would be
one idea. If the argument is that you may have a tax liability based upon
where your "office" is located, then place your office inside one of the
tax-free zones as well. - 27-Aug-03 |

Tax Information Exchange Agreement with Antigua and Barbuda |

with business there. The agreement will also restrict the economic growth
of that tiny island nation. Is it a blueprint for the future of tax havens
and some developing countries? - 28-Mar-02 |

sitting next to you at the bar that once you leave the U.S., you no longer
owe any taxes. That is true for citizens of some countries, but not of
