Other legislation
The Netherlands Antilles have an attractive tax legislation for non-local pensioners taking up residence in the NA. For more then a decade now, a group of several hundred "pensionado's" spends the larger part of the year under the Caribbean sun, and benefits from the financial benefits of being a Netherlands Antilles resident. The "pensionado" community has become an important economic contributor in the Netherlands Antilles.
The so called "Pensionado"-legislation offers many benefits to the retiree and his or her next of kin. We have included the basic information for your reference. You may contact our offices at any time to provide you with a reference to a tax advisor who will be able to assess how you can qualify for the "Pensionado"-status.
