In Chile, tax residents—those living or domiciled there for over six months—are taxed on global income; new residents pay only on Chilean income for three years (extendable). Nonresidents are taxed solely on Chilean income. Pensions and social security are tax-exempt, while VAT (known as IVA) is 19%. Income tax rates are progressive, ranging from 0 % up to 40 %.
You become tax resident in Chile if you spend more than six months in-country or are domiciled in Chile. But, if you are a nonresident, you pay taxes in Chile only on your income generated within the country.
Chile taxes on worldwide income. But, as a new resident, you will pay tax only on Chilean income for the first three years, which can be extended for an additional three years.
