- cm2187 7y agoThat’s pretty bad, you could end up with two countries claiming you are fiscally resident in their country at the same time. France has actually considered taxing French citizens abroad like the US. It comes regularly during presidential campaigns. I think the last serious attempt was Hollande. They backed down because it would require to renegotiate every tax treaty and they didn’t want to open that door. But I think it will happen one day.
