A Client, an individual, approached Interlegal regarding a change in tax residency. For the past few years, the Client had been residing in an EU country while continuing to fulfill obligations in Ukraine as a Ukrainian tax resident.
Interlegal’s task was to develop a step-by-step roadmap for changing residency and to support the Client at every stage of its implementation.
Tax residency issues are quite complex, as the process of changing tax residency involves a series of actions both in Ukraine and in the foreign country (the new country of residence). To address the requirements of other countries, Interlegal specialists engage their associated offices.
Projects involving a change of residency also require an analysis of the specific situation and the development of personalized recommendations. The action plan depends directly on the Client’s status in Ukraine and abroad (including their physical location, presence of assets, center of vital interests, etc.).
As of now, the Client has completed all necessary procedures and legally attained the status of a resident in the foreign country according to their personalized roadmap.
Interlegal provides consultation on tax residency issues in Ukraine and foreign countries and offers legal support throughout all stages of changing tax residency.
The project was handled by a team including lawyer Dmytro Bondar and leading lawyer Marta Sverdlykivska, under the guidance of the firm’s Partner Iryna Voievodina.
