Tax residency
Easy to leaveWhat makes you a tax resident — and how hard it is to stop being one.
- stay in the Kingdom of Bhutan during an income year equal to or more than 6 months (183+ days in the calendar year)
Tax residency is based purely on physical presence of at least six months in the calendar year; dropping below this day-count and ceasing to stay in Bhutan is generally sufficient to stop being a tax resident.
