Most of the board levies nothing on what a resident owns. The map marks every place: gold where there is no annual wealth tax, red where there is one, with the top rate printed for each of the 7 countries that levy it.

64 of the 100 places levy no wealth tax. The other 36 sit in Switzerland, Italy, France, Spain, Liechtenstein, Uruguay and Argentina. Spain and Switzerland set the rate by region or canton, so places in the same country carry different rates.

Rates are headline top rates applied flat, before allowances and caps. Each place with a wealth tax has its own page with the rule and the source.

The Patrician Letter

The rules move. Be told when they do.

Sent when it earns the send, not on a schedule. Never shared, one tap to stop.

Income tax on the published 2026 rules. Social contributions, most deductions and treaties are not modeled. Figures are for a non-US single filer. Wealth tax, an exit and your passports are added when you run the engine on your own numbers. Not advice. Residence rules change often. Verify before acting.
