Residence Fraud In Monaco

Monaco 2016 - 2020

Monegasque police officers would have been bribed by several Belgians in order to get a resident card for tax haven Monaco while actually living in Belgium.

Six Belgians  from Brussels, Knokke-Heist and Namur  were  taken to the police station in  November 2016 for questioning. The investigating magistrate in Brussels, Michel Claise, (Le Soir, 2016) will later decide on a possible arrest.

The Federal Service for Combating Corruption (Office Central pour la Répression de laCorruption (OCRC) has made nine raids Monday in Brussels, Knokke-Heist and around Namur.

This was done at the request of the Monegasque authorities for police officers from the Principauté suspected of corruption.

According to tax experts, it is a fraud, "In Monaco people pay no income tax. Illegally trying to obtain a Monegasque residents card is a trick to pretend you're a resident of Monaco and therefore not taxable in Belgium. The place where you are registered as a resident is not the place where you are liable to tax. That is the place where you live. "

Carte de séjour in Monaco
If you want to get  "carte de séjour" in Monaco, an in depth investigation  is done by the Monegasque police ; so you must prove that  you have  financial resources, a lease in Monaco and there is a background investigation.

How to make money with tax data ?

Brussels - 01 October 2016

Denmark is buying tax data.
It now plans to investigate whether 500-600 Danes who feature in the offshore archive may have evaded tax.
Denmark’s tax minister said he will pay up to DKK 9 million (EUR 1,2 million) to buy leaked data from the Panamaniam law firm Mossack Fonseca.

He said an anonymous source approached the Danish government over the 2016 summer. The source sent over an initial sample of documents and the government reviewed them. After concluding they were genuine, it secretly negotiated support for the controversial deal from political parties in parliament, the minister said.

https://www.theguardian.com/news/2016/sep/07/panama-papers-denmark-becomes-first-country-to-buy-leaked-data

France has passed a new law in 2016, enabling its Ministry of finance to buy fiscal data.

Germany is already buying fiscal data  since 2010
in 2008, Germany paid EUR 5 million for leaked data from Lichtenstein. Germany could so recover  EUR 180 millions.

HSBC's private banking arm accused of tax fraud by Belgium

17 November 2014 - Brussels

Authorities in Brussels have charged HSBC's private banking arm, which is based in Switzerland, with helping wealthy Belgians to avoid taxes.

Prosecutors allege that hundreds of clients - including diamond dealers in Antwerp - moved money to offshore tax havens with the help of the bank.

They said it resulted in hundreds of millions of euros in lost tax revenue.

			1150 Woluwe-Saint-Pierre

In August, HSBC warned that the penalties in relation to such allegations "could be significant".

In a statement, Belgian authorities accused HSBC of "having knowingly eased and promoted fiscal fraud by making offshore companies available to certain privileged clients".

These companies, which are based in Panama and the Virgin Islands, exist for the sole purpose of tax evasion, they added.

Over 1,000 taxpayers are alleged to have been involved in the fraud, which saw funds amounting to several billion dollars transferred out of Belgium since 2003.

Responding to the announcement by Belgian authorities, HSBC said it had been notified of the investigation, and of a similar investigation by French authorities, and that the bank would "continue to cooperate to the fullest extent possible".

'Illegal'

Banks operating in Switzerland are bound by the European Union Savings Directive to counter cross-border tax evasion, by collecting information on the savings income foreign residents receive outside their resident state.

Belgian authorities also published emails and other correspondence between HSBC and Belgian clients, which appear to show the bank offering tax evasion services.

Prosecutor Michel Claise accused HSBC of "fraud, money laundering, criminal association and illegal exercise of the profession of financial intermediary".

In October, Belgian police raided the homes of approximately 20 people with private bank accounts at HSBC's Swiss subsidiary, to gather evidence against the lender.

HSBC has been subject to a series of fines for misconduct in recent years, most recently in relation the manipulation of foreign currency exchange rates.
