Check out our article 5 Developed EU Residences for Serious Entrepreneurs
Over the years, we’ve had plenty of established entrepreneurs looking to expand their businesses or develop their passport plan B by getting an EU residence.
Tax reduction remains a major reason for moving to another country. Yet, some entrepreneurs prefer to pay some tax in order to have access to better talent and a higher quality of life, such as that offered in EU countries.
In this video, Andrew shares his thoughts on the EU.

Great ECB crash is coming and building. Vast investment in defaulting Chinese bonds in the Trillions will crash EU in the interim.
Greetings from Coimbra, Portugal today…Sipping on a Gin @ tonic and life is good…Get Busy living…🇵🇹👊🤙✌🤟😎
NORWAY is NOT i the EU. You claim to be an expert, and sell your expensive services to people thinking of relocating.
Yet you get basic facts wrong inthe video, and mention Norway several times as an alternative in this piece about relocation to the EU. Though Norway is part of the Schengen travel agreement, it does NOT adhere to rules of residency and work permits that apply within the EU.
I suggest that people should think several times before paying for you advise…
If are an American citizen, or were born in the USA, you may have problems opening a bank account in many European countries. Mamy banks don't want to extra paperwork involved with Americans. Have any others had problems opening a bank account?
The EU is going in on the Global Minimum Tax and it will be high. Run.
Are they still offering hookers as a bonus in Austria if you get a booster? If I get an Austrian boost, can I select a Spanish hookie?

I grew up living in London, The Hague and Paris as an American oil brat. I plan to retire in France. The cost of home ownership there (France/EU) is much cheaper than in the USA—lower mortgage rates at only 1.5%, e.g. and much slower to rise, no double taxation as a US citizen, much lower property taxes, no need for a car if you live in any city or large town, superb public transit and excellent cheap healthcare. Pretty much the same throughout EU. Housing is also cheaper if you don’t buy in Paris or the city center of Lyon, etc. but you can find beautiful properties in smaller towns, villages near big cities (that you can train to very easily sans car), or in the countryside (where you’d need a car). Many Brits and other expats live and retire there. The French people are lovely, educated to a high standard (higher than in the USA), and many speak English fluently. Culturally there is no “woke” bullshite and overall EU countries are very much more diverse and inclusive, without talking about it endlessly, than anywhere in the US. We are second only to Apartheid South Africa in terms of tolerance here in America. Chew on that, conservatives. AND you can become a dual citizen if you’d like, but as a retiree you might not want to bother. Also France will not tax Americans on their social security “earnings.” There are tax treaties in place with US and EU countries. All in all, I will pay less to retire in France than if I stayed in Houston, Texas, where the cost of living is already much cheaper than certain parts of the US. I will have a much better quality of life, comparatively. Socialism in Europe has many advantages you don’t hear about in the US. Because conservatives don’t want you to know. Social conservatism backlash is overtaking common sense in the USA too, imho. I will not stay in a country that restricts medical care to pregnant women. And that wants to uphold fossil fuels as the main energy resource just to stick it to their political opponents. Dumb and dumber.

what do you think about north cypress
Europe is not worth it anymore
EXCELLENT ! Bravo !!!
Not sure I would recommend Europe that much anymore. The whole EU is getting more and more centralised, which is a horrible idea due to the enormous differences between countries imo. Also, their energy and food supply is rather unstable right now, and the European economy relied a lot on cheap Russian gas to stay competitive. Without it, Im not sure how much they could compete with cheaper Eastern industries. Also, yeah, your freedoms are starting to disappear more and more and for Americans, the freedom of speech protection would almost certainly be insufficient
Globalization killed the European “culture” and they don’t even know it
The western EU is a woke socialist shithole, I wouldn't recommend any US citizen to move there. Furthermore the EU parliament bureaucrats want to control and supervise everything you do, starting from any amount of money that goes into your amount (as little as 500 EUR or smth like that), to what speed your are allowed to drive your car with (the car will basically read the signs and reduce your speed automatically). Besides that innovation and progress is not encouraged, actually the opposite since they hand out free shit and for example a janitor earns 1.5-2 KEUR/month and a SW developer earns 3 KEUR/month.
The eastern EU is not there yet but I would estimate it will be the same in a few years because the western trend is spreading to the east as well and as long as you're an EU member there's not way out eventually.
So no, imo there is no discussion here, I would just stay away from the EU altogether.

It's worth mentioning that Irish Citizenship includes the right to live and work not only in the Republic of Ireland, but also anywhere else in the EU and, uniquely, in the UK as well. No other EU or EEA citizenship / permanent residence option provides the option to live, work, or retire in the United Kingdom. Simply put, Irish Citizenship carries wider residency privileges than any other European country.
Evil Europe and America must collapse for world to breath fresh planet
Winter is coming
The ideal country – these days – would have it's own energy supply and food supply be non – EU, non-NATO along with all the other factors like banking and taxes. I'd like to see you focus on countries with food and energy self sufficiency with no WEF influence. Is that Mexico? Georgia?
🚩Citizenship in Paraguay, what are your thoughts and experiences with Paraguay for Americans by investment or retirement??? Thanks 🙏🏻
The comment on no alcohol in a Spanish restaurant is probably just made up. I haven’t seen that in my entire life and if that would ever happen it might just be a one in a million event. He is telling you that as if is common… lol.
The EU is headed for a collapse! There won’t be an EU in 10 years time!
There may be a Slavic Alliance of Nations that will compete with the EU. Which will be an interesting option….
For Americans, we should also be talking about DAFs, onshore and offshore trust options to bring taxes as close to zero as possible. Passive investments generally can also be done in solo 401Ks. There are alot of strategies for multi citizenships without giving up US citizenship and minimizing taxes. Also Puerto Rico.
How is parity and the inevitable fall below parity of the euro to the dollar impacting Europe and all of this?
North America is in serious decline in all aspects, Usa most expensive health care with Canada the worst health care, socialist woke radical democrats running both countries. I could go on all day about the negatives : Crime rampant with catch and release liberal policies, Becomming quickly unnafordable with massive future tax increases on the way. I would take my chances any day in Europe as a far better, safer and much healthier lifestyle. Leave your stressful life in North America and actually go and live. We did and wish we would have done it 15 years sooner.
Serbia?
Are you in Serbia? Asking because of the White Angel painting in the back.
Hungary is beautyful!!! You should do an complete tutorial about it! The future and key of Europa!!!
Thanks for the good and the bad….but what about the ugly? 👹
like your videos and leaving the home country may be an option for some – but i can’t leave US as wife doesn’t want to – for someone in my position
i haven’t found a better option than PPLIdon’t get culture change but at least get tax benefits – but if i was younger i prob wouldCome to the EU if you like how the WEF operated the world during covid. I live in the netherlands and I plan to leave this madness.
Why do you have to wear a suit working from home?
BTW – “Educated enough” doesn’t mean you speak English. A beggar in England also speaks English and I’m sure you aren’t educated yourself but speak real good. Get out of your English speaking supremacy.
As a dual citizen (Colombian-born and naturalized Dutch) who has been living in The Netherlands for 20 years and who lived in Portugal for sometime as well, I do not see myself moving back to Colombia or to Portugal for that matter (or perhaps even another EU country or the other 8 Mercosur countries I could easily move to). For holidays? Sure. Knowing how disorganized those countries are I’m also way too used to how perfectly organized and efficient life is in The Netherlands. I feel like living elsewhere would be a major step back. I find The Netherlands a good balance of German discipline and somewhat Southern European laidback-ness. Working too much is frowned upon. You don’t even need to own a car in this country cause you can use your bike for everything. The weather is also pretty ok here in the south of the country, where I live. It’s sunnier and warmer than elsewhere, but rarely extremely warm. I live by the sea too which is great.
what about Romania? 1% taxes, can you do a video?
You’re better off settling in a European country that has not adopted the euro such as Switzerland, Norway, Hungary etc…Currently, opening an account in euros or holding euros is simply asking for trouble both short and long term. For those who have capital, there are so much more attractive destinations than Europe and EU. It’s a sinking ship.
I would say get a passport but don’t become a tax residence
Thank You from Bulgaria.This gentleman deserves every penny he made.Deep knowledge which comes with very hard work and jump to harvest enormous experience to understand different mentalities and Nations.
Ireland English speaking?
Brilliant analysis. Thanks Andrew.
Yr geopolitical risks r way underestimated. How safe will EU be when the nukes go off?
Portugal is a great balance of western and southern European mentalities/cultures. I'm a tad shook after being in the EU for the past 2 years at the prestige people put on EU residencies. There are many EU countries that I would argue are at a disadvantage comparatively toward specific ASEAN countries. Also I don't understand the interest in Brand Names when it comes to citizenships. Germany for example not allowing dual citizenship sans special circumstances is a great example of a very limiting place to build a future. It always comes down to the individual and what they view as "Top Standards".
