IANAL but I have been DN for a few years, albeit not a US one. In my reading, US citizens are responsible for US income tax regardless of where they are in the world. Some of that is balanced by double taxation treaties, but this doesn't apply if you're floating from one place to the next. While it's possible for some digital nomads to become a (tax) resident of nowhere, falling into a loop hole, it was my impression that this was not the case with US citizens. It's anyone's guess as to how long this will last, especially with this years uptick in remote work (if that is coupled with a return to the ability to travel after COVID). In the case of self employed digital nomads it's possible to structure your businesses to legally minimize taxes. I run my business out of Estonia, which may not be the cheapest tax wise but has the benefit of being an EU country, and somewhat transparent about tax. Estonia has flat 20% tax on share distributions. This is also great for startups. Money that comes into the business and stays in the business isn't taxed, simplifying growing your business. https://nomadcapitalist.com https://nomadcapitalist.com has some good reading on the subject, both blog or book.
