Pros of Bahamas Residency

- Taxes: Bahamian residents do not pay any income, capital gains or inheritance taxes. Bahamian companies don't pay corporate taxes either. The two main taxes in the Bahamas are VAT (0 to 10%) and property tax (less than 1% yearly).

- Minimum Residency: The goverment is planning on introducing a 90-day per year minimum residency for tax status. For now, no minimum is required.

- Quality of Life: The Bahamas offers top of the line real estate, resorts, amenities and schools. It is also close to the US (Miami 35 minute flight / New York 2h30m flight) and has direct flights to Toronto, Panama, London and Frankfurt.

- Sports Facilities: Many professional athletes reside in the Bahamas to benefit from the first-class sports infrastructures.

- MusicArtists: Many singers and producers enjoy the Bahamas for their recording facilities.

- High Yield on Real Estate: Homeowners benefit from a high return on their investment if they want to rent their property.

How to get the Residency?

- Economic Residency: The quickest way to get a Bahamian residency is with the economic residency. It lasts 1 year and can be renewed for 2 years every 2 years. The candidate has to show proof of domicile (leased or owned) and financial autonomy. The application process takes 1 to 3 months.

- Permanent Residency: As its name suggests, the permanent residency is for life. This is a very popular option and there is a fast track procedure for candidates who buy a property of USD 1.5M+. This procedure takes 3 to 6 months.
