Antigua and Barbuda

Caribbean

Antigua and Barbuda charges no personal income tax on any income, and its Nomad Digital Residence visa, running since 2020, makes remote work for a foreign employer explicitly legal. There is no tax treaty or social security agreement with any of the major nationalities NaVi tracks, so home-country obligations, especially for US citizens, continue exactly as before.
