Business Database
Sortable cross-country tables: tax rates, VAT, incorporation costs, and nomad visas — aggregated from official sources.
Corporate income tax, top personal rate, and capital gains by country.
Standard and reduced consumption-tax rates worldwide.
Entity type, non-resident director and remote setup are checkable against each official registry; costs and timings are Richbay estimates, not official figures.
Income requirements, duration, fees, and tax treatment of remote-work visas.
When each country starts treating you as a tax resident — the primary test, the day threshold, and how the days are counted.
Statutory paid leave, the standard and maximum working week, probation limits and employer notice — each read off the statute or labour ministry, with its source.
