The Expat Tax Calculator

Where does your money actually land?

Calculating
Tax assumption: All rates reflect standard employment income taxation as a full tax resident — i.e. you live and work from that country for 183+ days per year. Special visa regimes (Croatia DN visa, Malta Nomad Permit, Thailand LTR, Malaysia DE Rantau) show 0% only if you qualify and maintain non-resident status in your home country. Consult a local tax adviser before relocating.

Thailand* and Malaysia* show standard progressive tax rates — the realistic baseline for most expats. LTR visa (Thailand) requires $80k+ annual income or specialist skills. DE Rantau (Malaysia) requires a qualifying tech sector role. If you qualify for these, effective tax drops to near 0% on foreign income — consult an adviser.

Not financial or tax advice — consult a qualified adviser before relocating.
