Move Abroad for Your Retirement?

One great advantage to being American is that English is nowadays the lingua franca pretty much anywhere you go, and with 18.2% of Americans speaking Spanish as well, there are very few places Americans can’t go without being confident of their ability to communicate – although this is not to say that there is not rich reward to be enjoyed in learning to speak the native language of your expat retirement destination.

However, moving abroad is not a decision that is to be taken lightly. Not only should you thoroughly research your destination of choice, the type of visa you will require, the healthcare on offer and the expat community that exists there, you will also need to look into the full spectrum of expat wealth management considerations such as the pension and retirement planning vehicles, double taxation treaties with the United States and more. You will also have to consider reporting regulations in relation to your income – simply moving away from the US is not enough to negate your tax liability in the country.
