About ExpatEngine

ExpatEngine is a practical global-mobility utility site: fewer lifestyle articles, more calculators, structured comparisons and source-backed planning tools.

A practical starting point for a move abroad

ExpatEngine brings three planning tasks together: screening inbound tax schemes, counting Schengen short-stay days and exploring residence-duration milestones. It is operated by Kattegat Studio, a Danish sole proprietorship (CVR 46761952).

What makes the tax finder useful

The database retains 33 schemes across 30 countries, including salary concessions, foreign-income regimes and legacy routes. Those mechanisms are not interchangeable. The finder shows the difference, keeps official conditions close to the result and avoids assigning a payroll number to rules that do not support one.

What we publish

Our guides focus on decisions a calculator alone cannot settle: comparing two offers, identifying the income actually covered, planning for expiry and preparing questions for payroll. Worked examples are labelled as illustrations. Sources identify the authority behind a legal or tax rule; they do not imply that the authority endorses this site.

Responsibility and limits

ExpatEngine provides general information, not personalised tax or immigration services. We do not claim that a tool result is an authority approval, a professional opinion or a quotation for your payslip. No professional credential is implied by publication here. For a binding decision, use the relevant authority or a qualified adviser.

Corrections and contact

Report a broken source, inaccurate rule or unexpected result to contact@kattegatstudio.dk. Include the page and public source, but leave out personal tax documents. Our editorial policy and methodology explain the approach.
