[El Salvador Optimizes Immigration System, Temporary Residents Enjoy 0% Tax Rate on Bitcoin Gains and Foreign Income] BlockBeats News, June 13: El Salvador is continuously optimizing its immigration system to attract high-net-worth foreign talent and capital (including families). According to Decree No. 531, which takes effect on March 31, 2026, the residency requirement for temporary residents has been reduced from a mandatory 9-month stay within the country each year to just 90 days, either cumulative or consecutive, per year. This adjustment primarily targets entrepreneurs, investors, and remote workers who need to travel across borders frequently. El Salvador offers one of the most attractive tax regimes in Latin America for individuals with foreign-sourced income. The country operates on a territorial tax system, meaning only income generated within El Salvador is subject to taxation. A significant income tax reform in 2024 further clarified that both residents and non-residents are exempt from income tax on foreign-sourced income. This means freelancers, remote workers (such as content creators, developers, and entrepreneurs with overseas income) can enjoy a 0% El Salvador income tax rate on their foreign earnings, with no cap on the amount. Additionally, under the country's laws, capital gains related to Bitcoin are not taxed, and there are no wealth taxes, inheritance taxes, or gift taxes. The real focus lies in whether an individual's home country recognizes this arrangement, as most countries are reluctant to relinquish their taxation rights over their tax residents and often conduct strict reviews and enforcement regarding tax residency issues.
