One of the main reasons you might be considering moving to Dubai is to save on taxes, which is totally valid. In Dubai, taxes are around 0%, making it a highly attractive destination for businessmen and entrepreneurs.
When you decide to move from Spain to another country, it's important to evaluate several factors. In some countries, such as Estonia, it is convenient to establish the company there, but not necessarily the personal residence. In others, such as Portugal, it may be beneficial to reside there physically, but not to move the company. Therefore, it is essential to analyze where it is best for you to optimize your taxes. Here are some of the things to consider:
- The company
- The person
- Bank assets
- Heritage
- Investments (real estate, stock market, cryptocurrency, etc.)
Among all the factors mentioned above, the company plays a key role. The decision of where to establish your business depends on whether you can decentralize it or if it is a company with a physical base and face-to-face employees.
This is the most efficient option for optimizing taxes, since you can relocate both the firm Like the physical person.
In this case, we must study the situation, because it probably cannot be optimized directly, but other options must be considered. A solution would be to go to a country where 0% of personal income tax is paid, in this way your salary will come from the physical company, and in this case the best thing would be to establish a high salary, to save yourself the most amount of taxes.
Obviously, if you can decentralize the company, you can save a lot more taxes, but equally, you can also consider other options to save taxes from the company, but you have to study for each company individually.
With all of the above, Dubai presents itself as an excellent option for your business. Personal income tax is 0%, and corporate income tax is also 0% if business profits do not exceed 375,000 AED (approximately 93,000€). Starting from this threshold, a rate of 9% applies.
