If no definitive answer can be given to any of the above four criteria examined sequentially, the tax residence for treaty application purposes is determined mutually by the tax authorities of both DTT states.<\/p>\n<p>According to the commentaries issued by Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) on the model tax convention on income and capital (the \u2018Commentaries\u2019) \u201ca permanent home\u201d is to be understood as a house or apartment belonging to or rented by an individual, rented furnished room which is available to the individual at all times continuously, and not just occasionally for a stay, which, owing to the reasons of it, is necessary of short duration (travel for pleasure, business travel, etc.).<\/p>\n<p>The location of the centre of vital interests includes an evaluation of all available facts in order to ascertain with which treaty country the individual has closer personal and economic ties (family relations, political, professional and cultural activities, place of business, etc). Having a habitual abode in one country means that in that country the individual stays more frequently.<\/p>\n<p>In case of doubt as to in which country the individual has the centre of vital interest, if the individual stays more frequently in one country, that country is viewed as his residence country. Neither the treaty nor the commentaries give specific guidance as to what length of time the comparison must be made, however, it is clear that the comparison must cover a sufficient length of time for a sensible determination to be made.<\/p>\n<p>The nationality test may provide a definitive answer regarding the individual\u2019s residence in cases where all three preceding tests do not enable a specific determination to be made.<\/p>\n<p>As explained above, if the first test gives a decisive answer (permanent home in the expatriate\u2019s home country only), carrying out the remaining treaty tests will not be necessary.<\/p>\n<h2>Commentaries on leased personnel<\/h2>\n<p>Leased personnel typically refers to temporary workers or employees who are contracted through a staffing agency. These individuals work for a client company but are technically employed by a staffing agency or leasing company. The client company pays a fee to the staffing agency or leasing company for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>the services of these workers, and<\/li>\n<li>the agency is responsible for its payroll, taxes, and other employment-related matters.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Companies commonly use leased personnel to meet short-term staffing needs or to fill temporary positions.<\/p>\n<p>The definition of the leased personnel you will find <a href=\"https:\/\/breicis.com\/en\/taxation-of-leased-personnel\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Commentaries on social insurance contributions<\/h2>\n<p>The social insurance requirements for foreign employees you will find <a href=\"https:\/\/breicis.com\/en\/when-must-a-foreigner-pay-compulsory-social-insurance-contributions-in-latvia\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Benefits of being a tax resident in Latvia<\/h2>\n<p>This status will give you the right to order the Tax card and you will be entitled to a non-taxable minimum of EUR 70 and an allowance of EUR 175 per dependent registered in Latvia.\u00a0 The mentioned employee tax reliefs will decrease the taxable base for tax purposes in Latvia. Upon achieving tax residency status, you are eligible to apply for an electronic tax card.<\/p>\n<h2>If you do NOT qualify as a tax resident<\/h2>\n<p>If you do not qualify as a tax resident in Latvia:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Request from the Tax authorities in your home country \u2013 tax residence certificate or document confirming that you are considered a tax resident in your home country.\u00a0 The documents must be in English or translated into English.<\/li>\n<li>Submit an application to Latvian tax authorities asking them to register you as a tax non-resident in Latvia.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"w-full text-token-text-primary\" dir=\"auto\" data-testid=\"conversation-turn-20\">\n<div class=\"px-4 py-2 justify-center text-base md:gap-6 m-auto\">\n<div class=\"flex flex-1 text-base mx-auto gap-3 juice:gap-4 juice:md:gap-6 md:px-5 lg:px-1 xl:px-5 md:max-w-3xl lg:max-w-[40rem] xl:max-w-[48rem]\">\n<div class=\"relative flex w-full flex-col\">\n<div class=\"flex-col gap-1 md:gap-3\">\n<div class=\"flex flex-grow flex-col max-w-full\">\n<div class=\"min-h-[20px] text-message flex flex-col items-start gap-3 whitespace-pre-wrap break-words [.text-message+&amp;]:mt-5 overflow-x-auto\" dir=\"auto\" data-message-author-role=\"user\" data-message-id=\"aaa25555-1667-4a81-93a4-90f43af45053\">\n<div class=\"\">BREICIS provides payroll services, assistance for residency-related formalities, employee tax calculation services, and necessary reporting to the State Revenue Service for non-residents.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Information about employment<\/h2>\n<div>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>In accordance with the laws of the Republic of Latvia, foreigners fall into two categories:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Union citizens &#8211; individuals from European Union Member States, European Economic Area Member States (EU27 + Lichtenstein + Iceland + Norway), and the Swiss Confederation, who enjoy a status in Latvia equivalent to that of Latvian citizens.<\/li>\n<li>Third-country nationals: Entry into and employment in Latvia for this category are subject to additional conditions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Employing EU, EEA and Swiss citizens<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Right-to-work checks:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Foreigners from other EU and EEA countries and Swiss citizens do not need to obtain the right to employment.<\/li>\n<li>Employees can start employment relations in Latvia by entering into an employment agreement.<\/li>\n<li>After a three-month period employer need to receive an EU citizen\u2019s registration certificate, however, there is no need in such a registration for the period of up to six months if a Union citizen stays to find a job.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Employing third-country nationals<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Right-to-work checks:<\/p>\n<p>You will need a residence permit for work, which is most often arranged by your employer.<\/p>\n<p>Short-term employment:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The employer registers a job vacancy with the State Employment Agency if the employment is based on an employment contract.<\/li>\n<li>The employer submits an invitation request to the Office of Citizenship and Migration Affairs, including the employment contract or its draft, and the foreigner\u2019s educational documents.<\/li>\n<li>The foreigner submits documents to apply for a visa at the diplomatic or consular mission of the Republic of Latvia abroad.
