Good morning all,
I have the bulk of my savings in a brokerage account abroad based in a country I used to reside in but am not a resident of or plan to return to – it does however have 0% capital gains tax. Total amount roughly 17-18M JPY
It looks like we’re going to be Japan for the long term, I have some vague idea of flying the money in ‘under the radar’ in drips and drabs should we retire here but haven’t idiot checked this with anyone. Considering I’m not yet a tax resident would it make sense to move it over here and slowly use it to load up a NISA? if I brought it over in one lump would it be regarded as income and thus taxed?
Any advice heartily appreciated.
