Hi
I'm Irish but have been living abroad for the last 5 years in non-EU country which has a DTA with Ireland. Basically I would like to invest in shares via an Irish bank and not have to pay the Capital Gains Tax and dividend taxes.
From what I understand due to my residence status I'm not obliged to pay these however Im wondering what is the procedure enable me to avoid these taxes.
I presume
- I should fill out a non-residency declaration and then send it into the authorities?
- they evaluate it and give me a certificate?
- I then send that to the irish bank for confirmation that this tax doesn't apply
Or do I simply inform the bank and they take my word for it?
Any advice etc appreciated...
Regards
Eoghan
