I saw some posts about american wanting to move to Europe; so just before you guys make the move, double-triple check insurances/banks, because literally every time I (not american) do smth financially related in France, they ask me if I am american? If yes, they won’t even open accounts/ give me insurance etc… Sounds discriminatory but apperently because legal

I dont know if that expands to any other field

EDIT: lol i am now wondering what are people are downvoting for? You dont like that fact, so you downvote whoever told you that fact? Some reactions are hilarious

    Only people who make more than 200k/year or have more than 2 million in unrealized taxable assets have to pay an expatriation tax.

    There is no paying future taxes as that’d be asinine.

      You only have to pay taxes for 10 years after expatriation if you set foot on US soil for more than 30 days during that period.

        I would absolutely talk to an embassy or at least an international tax professional before making decisions and not rely on Lemmy.
