Tax rates are estimates based on published effective rates. Actual obligations depend on residency status, tax treaties (US has treaties with 60+ countries), and individual circumstances. US citizens owe US taxes worldwide but can use FEIE ($126K exclusion) and FTC. Consult a qualified international tax advisor before making relocation decisions.
