Tax profile

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

• normal place of abode in Liberia and present in Liberia at any time during the tax year
• more than 182 days in any 12‑month period that ends during the tax year in Liberia
• employee or official of the Government of Liberia posted abroad during the tax year

Tax residency is based on physical presence and a normal place of abode, so ceasing residency is generally achieved by leaving Liberia for long enough and giving up one’s normal place of abode, with no special long‑tail or citizenship/domicile rules indicated.
