Bahamas

Caribbean

The Bahamas has no personal income tax, no capital gains tax and no wealth tax, so the usual tax-residency questions barely apply here at all. Its BEATS permit, purpose-built for remote workers, legalizes the arrangement cleanly, though there is no tax treaty or social security coordination with any tracked nationality to fall back on.
