Tax residency
Days spent in a country are a key factor in determining tax residency. While 183 days is common, countries may use a calendar year, tax year, or rolling 12-month window. Our tax residency guidance explains thresholds, day-counting rules, and how personal or economic ties can affect your residency status.
