Tax residency
Easy to leaveWhat makes you a tax resident — and how hard it is to stop being one.
- 183+ days in a calendar/tax year
- permanent place of abode in Antigua and Barbuda
- approved tax residency program with 30+ days per year
- maintain an Antigua residential address
- annual flat tax payment of US$20,000
- annual income of at least US$100,000
Official guidance indicates residency is tied to physical presence and/or approved program conditions, not citizenship or domicile. Leaving is comparatively easy because there is no citizenship-based taxation or domicile-based deemed-resident tail in the cited guidance; you mainly stop satisfying the day-count/program conditions.
