If you like turquoise waters, a laid-back culture, and a slower pace of life, then Belize may be the expat destination for you.
Further benefits include an English-speaking culture, proximity to the US, thriving expat communities, and easy residency programs. However, every American must still report their worldwide income to the IRS each year, no matter where they reside – and expats often have additional US reporting to do, too.
In our latest article, we cover what Americans in Belize need to know about their US tax obligations, how Belize’s taxes work, and how to minimize your tax bill.

Should US expats open a foreign bank account overseas?
If you’re living abroad (or planning to move abroad), you've probably already given this question some thought. From getting paid smoothly to paying local bills, opening a local bank account can definitely make sense, but before you do it, be aware that it may trigger US FBAR reporting.
While FBAR (Foreign Bank Account Report) filing doesn’t trigger tax, not filing an FBAR can result in steep fines.
At Online Taxman, we’ve helped thousands of overseas Americans stay compliant and optimize their US taxes, including reporting their foreign accounts and assets.
