Tax residency in Barbados
Barbados determines individual income tax residence by reference to the calendar year. An individual is resident for a year if they are ordinarily resident in Barbados during that year, or if they are present in Barbados for 183 days or more in the aggregate in that year. Ordinary residence is a question of fact reflecting where the person habitually lives with continuity; relevant indicators include maintaining a permanent home available for personal use in Barbados and having the centre of personal and economic interests there, and temporary or occasional absences do not, by themselves, break ordinary residence. Domicile is a separate concept and is not determinative of residence.
