Anguilla is one of the Caribbean’s most luxurious and, what’s more, private islands. Picturesque white sand beaches fall away into inviting turquoise waters.

But it isn’t just the idyllic geography that attracts successful people to this island’s shores. Anguilla also operates one of the world’s most attractive tax regimes – with no direct taxation.

OPTION 3. Establish Your Tax Residence in Anguilla

For this option, you must make an annual $75,000 lump sum tax payment to Anguilla’s Inland Revenue Department for at least 5 consecutive years. For a family of 4 persons to qualify, the property must be worth a minimum of $400,000 at the time of application. You must also demonstrate an ability to make the annual lump sum tax payments
