Which is the country in Europe with lowest capital gains taxes?

[Piyayo]

Let´s see is traders from everywhere in Europe could give advice about how much does capital gains have to tax on every country.

It would be great to have a list of tax-friendly countries in Europe to know better where to move.

I wonder how much tax would you pay in Hungary? Belgium? Austria? Romania? Latvia? Croatia? Ukraine? Bulgaria? Czech Republic? etc....

I will add to this post the data:

Thanks!

why settle for Europe, why not think bigger? Panama, now thats one of the best tax havens I know of

Everybody know many tax heavens with 0%, but let´s talk about countries in Europe please.

Many thanks!

Have a look at lowtax dot net.
Also I think the OECD website has a comparison - I remember seeing one once.

Hi Piyayo,

Are you familiar with spread betting? Spread betting accounts operate similarly to the standard financial trading accounts, but enjoy special tax-free status for residents of the UK and Ireland. As with any form of speculative trading, your capital is at risk when spread betting.

The Channel Islands are in Europe, outside the EU and use the Sterling. 20% income tax, 0% EVERYTHING else (CGT, Inheritance...)

 

[WhitennyJames]

I think its France and Denmark.

Belgium does not tax gains - only dividend income (although watch out for the Tobin tax).

 

[Vasco da Banana]

Best ask Amazon.

 

[scose-no-doubt]

Andorra I think. Can't member off the top of my head.

 

[NVP]

umm.......thinking .......Gibraltar....Monaco.....Andorra ........cyprus .....san marino (?)

all pretty low I think

[scose-no-doubt]

Gibraltar only has a beneficial tax system for HNWs and there are a lot of rules to get the benefits e.g. you have to be resident and own a property (inflated value ain't the word)... and it's a **** hole.

 

[Hakuna Matata]

I was gonna say Andorra too, but maybe Luxembourg?

 

[Hakuna Matata]

as far as I can recall, Gib is attractive for tax purposes because you can be like a "non-dom" but live there all the time... so if you qualify like, you can just pay 30 bags a yr and that's the end of your tax obligations.

(i never qualified )

 

[Hakuna Matata]

maybe try some of the peripheral scandies, but tbh it's gonna depend largely on what the capital gains are on and how they were made.

put too much into this now. talk to an expert.

Yeh but you need to bring x amount of net assets with you I'm sure.

Problem is that nobody wants to stay there cos it's a sh*thole so you need to have your income sorted or you can end up with dual residency in another (nicer) jurisdiction.

 

[NVP]

perhaps go further afield ?

st kitts & Nevis offers Zero Cap gains but you need to buy a property

plus I think the Caymans blah blah ......

[Hittfeld]

Forget about Andorra and the usual places - they raised their entry hurdles considerably. Forget about GIB plus second jurisdiction - this second will tax all your world income - and enforce it.

But aside from Bulgaria (10 %) GREECE is said to tax trading income at 0 percent. And Belize (British Honduras) earns recommendations as a preferred traders spot.
For few trades (up to 10 a month) NL !!

So I was told - unchecked!
