These two terms are often used interchangeably, but when it comes to the financial and legal implications, they are completely different.

You can be a resident of many places, but you can only have one domicile. “Domicile vs. Residence in U.S. Law” https://blog.savvynomad.io/domicile-vs-residence-in-us/ 0:00 Introduction 0:06 Understanding domicile and residence 1:10 What is domicile? 1:43 What is residence? 2:31 Tax implications of domicile 3:19 Changing your domicile 3:52 Savvy Nomad services 4:07 Wrap-up and conclusion If you're a digital nomad, expat, or remote worker living abroad, you're probably paying more taxes than you have to.
