Tax residency
Easy to leaveWhat makes you a tax resident — and how hard it is to stop being one.
- permanent place of dwelling in Senegal
- permanent residency in Senegal
- professional activity in Senegal (other than merely subsidiary activities)
- centre of economic interests in Senegal
- centre of business in Senegal
- physical presence of more than 183 days in any 365‑day period
Tax residence is based on factual connections such as permanent home, economic interests, business activity, or 183+ days of presence; ending residence is generally achieved by relocating so these conditions are no longer met and falling below the 183‑day test, with no explicit multi‑year tail or citizenship tie in the official criteria.
