• Be aware of German exit tax implications, if you are holding shares >1 % in a corporation. Among other OECD countries, also Germany applies an exit tax if an individual abandons their German tax residency in these situations. Since certain conditions apply and as this also accounts for non-German corporate shares, careful tax planning options should be reviewed.
