Residency

Residency trigger

Residence is irrelevant — no personal tax on investment income exists.

Non-resident treatment

Identical: 0%, with no withholding on outbound payments.

Notes

  • Foreign payers may still withhold their own tax at source — Monaco's small treaty network (about a dozen agreements) rarely helps reclaim it.
  • The old withholding on Monégasque interest paid to European Union residents ended in 2017, replaced by automatic exchange of account information.
  • Monégasque banks report account data internationally under the common reporting framework — privacy from tax authorities is not part of the offer.
