US citizen moving to Anguilla? Read this first.
Anguilla has 0% personal income tax, so the US-citizen math is dominated by FEIE plus self-employment tax.
- •FEIE (Form 2555) shields ~$130k of earned income in 2026. Income above that has no Foreign Tax Credit to offset US tax (no foreign tax was paid), so it's taxed at regular US rates.
- •Self-employment tax (15.3%) is owed in full — Anguilla has no totalization agreement with the US, so there is no SE-tax exemption.
- •Investment income (dividends, capital gains, interest) is taxed at standard US rates. No FTC because no Anguilla tax was paid.
- •Anguilla residency requires 183 days. State residency severance from a sticky state (CA, NY, VA, NM, SC) before international move is the highest-stakes practical step.
