🚨 GLOBAL TAX & VISA MOVES – MID-2025 EDITION
From Europe’s new barriers to emerging opportunities, this week’s breaks down what’s shaking investor stability—and where new doors are opening.
ITALY TIGHTENS DESCENT PATHS—Effective May 2025, Italy will require a genuine parental link to grant citizenship by descent. Distant lineage no longer qualifies.
📆 Rush to file before March 27, 2025, for legacy-based claims.
PORTUGAL GOLDEN VISA SHAKE-UP—Portugal may tighten its Golden Visa rules—longer paths to citizenship and stricter stay requirements loom. Qualified fund-based residency routes still offer fast-track access to the EU.
🏛️ Optimize timing and legal structure now.
🏦 BVI BANK OF ASIA FALLOUT—The Eastern Caribbean Supreme Court has placed Bank of Asia into provisional liquidation. Insured clients are protected up to $100K—others face long delays.
📉 Signals risk for offshore banking and asset confidence in the region.
🔁 UK TAX REFORM BACKLASH- Critics warn the UK’s non-dom tax changes could backfire, weakening its reputation as a premier wealth hub. Short exemptions, IHT concerns, and poor incentives are driving capital outflows.
⚠️ Plan cross-border moves with tax foresight.
PORTUGAL WANTS YOUR TALENT—Portugal is doubling down on becoming Europe’s top gateway. Expect stronger tax perks, broader access, and startup-friendly residency.
🧠 Perfect storm for tech talent + investors seeking EU mobility.
