What makes you a tax resident — and how hard it is to stop being one.

• domiciled in Greenland (have a residence/home in Greenland)
• remain in Greenland for at least 6 months including short stays outside Greenland for holidays etc.

Tax residency ends when you no longer have a residence (domicile) in Greenland and no longer stay there for a 6‑month period, so cleanly leaving generally requires giving up your Greenland home and limiting time spent back in Greenland below six months. There is no citizenship‑based or explicit multi‑year tail rule, but a continuing home or long stays can keep you resident.
