Short answer: Holding Argentine temporary or permanent residence does not automatically make you an Argentine tax resident, nor end tax residence in Hong Kong, Taiwan or elsewhere. Tax residence often turns on days present, home and centre of economic interests. Migration and tax planning should run in parallel.

What are common myths?
| Myth | Reality |
|---|---|
| Residence permit = Argentine tax residence | Presence facts still matter |
| No local return means no duties | Home-country and account-jurisdiction rules may still apply |
| Citizenship forces single nationality | Dual nationality and tax residence are separate issues |
| Immigration counsel equals tax advice | Use a qualified tax adviser for tax conclusions |
Does CRS exchange data?
Under the Common Reporting Standard, institutions may report account information to jurisdictions of tax residence. Self-certification must match objective ties (home, family, company). See Argentina residence.
Is under 183 days always non-resident?
Not always. Some tests also look at home and centre of vital interests—not days alone.
CRS and overseas accounts
False self-certification is high risk. Bank onboarding declarations should match reality.
