Детали программы

Category 2 is Gibraltar's flagship HNWI tax status, designed to deliver a predictable annual personal income tax outcome for qualifying residents.

In practical terms, Category 2 limits the income tax calculation to a capped assessable income basis (commonly cited at GIP 118K ), producing an annual tax typically between GIP 37K and GIP 45K .

Outside the Category 2 calculation, Gibraltar's broader tax environment is attractive to internationally mobile individuals: capital gains tax is generally None, and there is no inheritance tax or wealth tax. Gibraltar taxation is driven by source concepts (income accrued in or derived from Gibraltar), so treatment of foreign income depends on where activities occur and how income is received.

To access Category 2, applicants must typically show significant net worth (commonly at least GIP 2.0M ), secure approved accommodation in Gibraltar, and satisfy non-residency history and due diligence checks. Ongoing access depends on maintaining conditions and staying compliant with Gibraltar filing and payment requirements.
