@@nomadcapitalistgreat do you list each country someplace? Even a top 10 ranked by these criteria would be wonderful and offer a great conversation started with your company.
Coming from the perspective of a nomad capitalist who’s trying to build a passport portfolio, I think overall; France won this. Dual citizenship, slightly lower taxes, and visa free access to Vietnam takes the win in my opinion.
1:56 As a french, I confirm that the average french population does not speak english 😀 That said, I'm a little surprised at the lenient tax score you gave for France. In reality, it should be more Lenine than lenient. The effective tax rate is super high, fragmented in many little taxes with different names and wording, like "taxe", "impôt", "cotisation", "salaire différé", "TVA", "flat tax", "droit de succession" and so on. And they multiply alltogether. France is very creative when it comes to hide taxation through semantics. Government never communicates on the effective tax rate, or else it would be the revolution. I computed that the french effective tax rate is around 65% to 75%, rising up to 90% when someone dies. I call that a soviet country.

I really enjoyed this and love to see more of these. Personal, if offered a passport from either as a dual citizen of special circumstance, I would take the Netherlands passport.
The no dual citizenship thing is a deal-breaker for me. The Dutch overseas territories does present an interesting way in, but having to swap my Canadian travel documents for The Netherlands seems like a wash. I would agree, showing up with a Dutch passport is likely to be about as well received a passport as you will find in the world. I do like the people in The Netherlands much better.

Even more than a few of the women are north of 6'. I don't think the same can be said of Frenchmen, so for all the single ladies looking for a man you can wear heels around, The Netherlands beckons. Ah, but France. If I had to spend a lot of time in one of the two, it has to be France. I feel like you could spend months, even years exploring France. The Netherlands, I feel like a couple of weeks and you would have a good handle on the place. And unless the Dutch are going to be taking territory from another European nation, they can't compete with France's spot on the Med. Where better to spend the summer months? I do wonder who would win the cheese showdown. And yes, Schiphol over CDG any day of the week!
As far as I know you can keep your Canadian citizenship if you marry a Dutch person for example. Also if your parents have dual citizenship then you are allowed to have it too. The govt only screws over the native Dutchies, as usual.

Excellent video this plus and minus sketch works well for me. Best advice I can give is draw up a list on a piece of A4 paper one side pluses otherside minuses. As a dual citizenship guy it helped me zoom in on the two countries that fit my life style choice's How about a SWOT analysis?,. Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats.
Nice game show feel, a fun video. I would not want either passport because of the taxation, but I think they are pretty evenly matched. I would like to see a South American country versus a European country.
I love this video format! I love all European countries, but I notice that Dutch people speak excellent English, while bigger countries like Franch and Germans feel like they're big enough that they don't need to learn English. Also, in terms of preception, France has more colonialism in Africa and Caribbean (Haiti), so preception is more about what not to do, and there smaller countries win. I think Netherlands slightly wins, if I had to pick a winner.
The Ducth lady says that EU citizen don't have to give up their other EU passports when taking Dutch citizenship, is that true? I can't find anything about this exception.
How can you have dual? I'm looking into it as well as my mother was born in Holland. However I live in Canada and don't want to give up my Canadian citizenship.
It’s clearly France that won but The Netherlands did promote their selfs well. Infrastructure I always see The Netherlands on number 1 but literally did we know that easy Storm poly can actually Destroy the infrastructure of The Netherlands. And because the infrastructure of The Netherlands is never tested and never properly explained infrastructure goes also to France. France and Netherlands both have good health care so both getting the point i can more argument why France is the winner but that will be to much
This was something different seeing both of them on the same screen at the same time.In my opinion even though taxes are higher in the Netherlands I still choose the Netherlands the quality of life is much higher than france.A lot of people don’t understand that france doesn’t produce the goods they used to,france used to make a lot of cloths,purses,shoes,textiles but not anymore.And so even though the taxes are a little bit cheaper but keep in mind when a country doesn’t produce as much raw materials,goods and other services you wined up paying more for them.On the other hand there is way more economical stability in the Netherlands than it is in France.To me france just has a long way to go the entire United Kingdom for that matter,yes the Netherlands do have some flaws as well but they can be resolved easier much quicker than france.
I am Dutch and what is also bad in the Netherlands is that you can't change your last name (only by a few exceptions where you need approval from the King). I found this out myself the hard way after marrying abroad. Netherlands is only one of the few countries where you can't change your last name unfortunately.
Is there a "best passport for freedom" by nomad capitalist? I'd pick countries like Switzerland over France or Netherlands, I don't want the WEF to push "de-growth" agendas on me or the society I'm living in.

No question imo. France. Better in so many ways. Affordable housing (especially when compared to countries like Canada) and the quality of living is quite high (especially when outside the cities). Quality health care. Quality education. Geography is quite diverse, and extraordinarily beautiful from one side of the country to the other. This takes into account that worldwide, all these things are slipping from what they once were...
It must be one of the most beautiful countries in the world, no doubt. Particularly if you don't go to Paris, the rest of the country is absolutely beautiful, but taxation makes it a NIGHTMARE, and the mentality of the people really sucks. They are so pro big-government top-down and anti free market and individual liberties as if they were like the last living part of the URSS... You wonder how these people were on the "West" during the cold war, because they have a Soviet mentality.
You can get a French passport after being married to a French citizen for 4-5 years (depending on certain conditions). Be prepared for certain checks though, they will make sure it is a real marriage, and not just for the papers (as they should). Also, marrying a French citizen resembles a bit like going through some kind of due diligence, I had to gather a nice bunch of papers (over 100 grams of them) to submit to the French authorities before they would allow me to marry my wife. They still go by some medieval system that a marriage has to be announced for 10 days in case somebody "objects"... so they will pin a paper somewhere announcing your wedding and providing there are no complains, they will give you the green light. I am not joking.
Saying that if u are a Netherland tax citizen or resident its almost impossible to leave it's very wrong.....Its not the USA were the taxes follow you all over the world. U can easily leave The Netherlands and live in a different country. If u unsubscribe yourself as a resident of The Netherlands with your local government, u do not have to pay taxes anymore. Also : if u want to stay an Dutch tax residenct u can still be in different countries for 8 months out of the 12 and stay a Dutch tax resident....
Not true at all, unregistering is simply not enough. The literal code says: it depends on facts and circumstances. Then you look at the court litetature and see that they have a huge list of things to call somebody a tax resident. Actually having a toothbrush is one of them not a joke.
Hmmm what kind of taxes are we talking about. If you just work for a company outside netherlands and have a bank account outside the eu you pretty much can skip taxes right?
@@burnout486 It actually is. I'm from The Netherlands and unregistered myself and still having my Dutch passport. they deliberately make it a vague concept in the law because there are many gray areas and then the government can apply how it suits them. Like u said : it depends on facts and circumstances. This is a very broad concept. If u unregister yourself and make sure u can proof u are an tax resident somewhere else, the NL government is not saying shit about this...Unregister and not being in the Netherlands for more then 6 months a year is surely enough not to get into any arguement with the government or what so ever.
There is a "hidden" but very obvious detail in this video that I absolutely adore. The painting in the center is a reproduction of a fresco called "White Angel" from the Serbian monastery Mileshevo (13th century). It is one of the great achievements of European art... but it actually has many meanings.
But speaking of the topic, passports. The Netherlands is bad because it doesn't allow dual citizenship, and that is game over. But more importantly, The Netherlands blindly follows American cultural dictate (wokeness) and ultra left marxism has a lot of momentum. There are a lot of privileged people mostly in the cities who vote for unreasonable parties and policies (the best term to describe them is "champagne socialists"). The recent elections in the NL showed how much the rest of the people are fed up with it, so the anti-establishment party (PVV) won the most votes - but not enough to independently form a government. The champagne socialists (woke) compete who is going to be more righteous, and in that competition they devastate the life standard, purchasing power of the middle class.
One more thing - The Netherlands is a tax haven, but only for ultra large corporations. The famous double Dutch Irish sandwich is a tax scheme used by such corporations. When it comes to taxing ordinary people and middle class - the NL is very efficient.
If I wanted to live someplace cheap, so I could save my current job income to be able to invest most of my income. What are some of the top suggestions the community would make? Georgia, Malaysia and Spain look like decent options so far to me.
Cute format. Netherlands is wining on points for English-only speakers (and its US friendship treaty), but is suddenly knocked-out for its dual citizenship prohibition. (However, pensioners might be able to circumvent this restriction.)
How much time have you spent in NL? Clearly not much and you seem to know little about actual Dutch culture and demographics. And you clearly haven’t paid attention to recent elections
Can anyone tell me if its a good idea to get the German citizenship? I have 2 years left and im taking German here at the university. A lot of Americans and Germans complain about Germany so im nervous. Please, someone help
For historical reasons, Germany requires your children to go to German schools: no private schools or home schooling. and so I don't know about other EU schools, but I wouldn't want Germany residency. Not enough personal freedom.
The Dutch woman says: "The Netherlands doesn't allow dual citizenship except in certain circumstances [like] if you come from an EU country". Can anyone give more details? Is that true? I can't find anything about EU citizens' ability to get Dutch citizenship without losing their other EU passport(s). Is that correct?
Im french . We out of competition France as the highest taxe rate in the world lol. 40% plus. Who wants to give alf of is hard earn money? No one obviously!!
Very funny: I prefer Air France to KLM Royal Dutch Airlines; but, I prefer AMS Schiphol airport to CDG Paris airport. This is a fun lifestyle competition.

If u unregister yourself and make sure u can proof u are an tax resident somewhere else, the NL government is not saying shit about this...Unregister and not being in the Netherlands for more then 6 months a year is surely enough not to get into any arguement with the government or what so ever.
@@luka1790 It depends where your residency is...
One note : IF u dont have any income from The Netherlands
There is a "hidden" but very obvious detail in this video that I absolutely adore. The painting in the center is a reproduction of a fresco called "White Angel" from the Serbian monastery Mileshevo (13th century). It is one of the great achievements of European art... but it actually has many meanings.
But speaking of the topic, passports. The Netherlands is bad because it doesn't allow dual citizenship, and that is game over. But more importantly, The Netherlands blindly follows American cultural dictate (wokeness) and ultra left marxism has a lot of momentum. There are a lot of privileged people mostly in the cities who vote for unreasonable parties and policies (the best term to describe them is "champagne socialists"). The recent elections in the NL showed how much the rest of the people are fed up with it, so the anti-establishment party (PVV) won the most votes - but not enough to independently form a government. The champagne socialists (woke) compete who is going to be more righteous, and in that competition they devastate the life standard, purchasing power of the middle class.
One more thing - The Netherlands is a tax haven, but only for ultra large corporations. The famous double Dutch Irish sandwich is a tax scheme used by such corporations. When it comes to taxing ordinary people and middle class - the NL is very efficient.
If I wanted to live someplace cheap, so I could save my current job income to be able to invest most of my income. What are some of the top suggestions the community would make? Georgia, Malaysia and Spain look like decent options so far to me.
This episode was quite enjoyable. Great idea to do debates. Piers Morgan watch out 😅
This is entertaining
Make Argentina VS Uruguay and Brazil VS México
italy vs germany plz
What about a tournament? One v one. The winners go to next level until there are only two left. Here I would say France wins
Casting Couch Countries: Netherlands vs Spain
netherlands all day long
Netherlands we are under water, it is dry but who knows how long
Cute format. Netherlands is wining on points for English-only speakers (and its US friendship treaty), but is suddenly knocked-out for its dual citizenship prohibition. (However, pensioners might be able to circumvent this restriction.)
Round 1 France
Round 2 Netherlands
Round 3 tie
Round 4 France
Round 5 Tie
Round 6 France
France wins but not a knockout.
Taxes that works but nothing like California or New York
No benefits, both are in the EU and Schengen zone.
Taxes are high. Look what you get back.
Netherlands amen for your love of people
Netherlands is too woke, France, yea used to be, where are the French?
In Morocco
No French in France.
How much time have you spent in NL? Clearly not much and you seem to know little about actual Dutch culture and demographics. And you clearly haven’t paid attention to recent elections
France is as woke as The Netherlands.....really no difference in the bigger cities...It's all over western-Europe.
Canada is the most woke
I am Dutch but I dont think she is Dutch at all, she sounds like she isn't a Dutch native speaker.
She is not Dutch, she was just representing the Netherlands.
@@nomadcapitalist Clear, she did a great job representing though!
@joelr7208 here the confirmation :)
Neither one of those countries is a winner!
Can anyone tell me if its a good idea to get the German citizenship? I have 2 years left and im taking German here at the university.
A lot of Americans and Germans complain about Germany so im nervous.
Please, someone help
For historical reasons, Germany requires your children to go to German schools: no private schools or home schooling. and so I don't know about other EU schools, but I wouldn't want Germany residency. Not enough personal freedom.
@@Tee55118 on the flip side, Germany is about to accept dual citizenship and reduce naturalization time from 8 to 5 years.
U can have Dual Dutch if you marry a foreign person in that country and if you immigrated before you were 12 years old in that country ie Australia
The Dutch woman says: "The Netherlands doesn't allow dual citizenship except in certain circumstances [like] if you come from an EU country". Can anyone give more details? Is that true? I can't find anything about EU citizens' ability to get Dutch citizenship without losing their other EU passport(s). Is that correct?
Fun video
Im french . We out of competition France as the highest taxe rate in the world lol. 40% plus. Who wants to give alf of is hard earn money? No one obviously!!
which of this two countries has a cbi program?
Netherlands ❤❤🔥🔥 All Aspects
What’s so great about a French passport if everyone wants another one besides? BTW beer over wine every day 😂
Doesn’t France gives their passport in 2 years if you graduate at France higher education?
When going through the process, you'll find that it's still a standard 6 years to obtain.
However, yes, it is offered as such.
I think you also have to work in the country for a period of time after graduation.
Depends of the type of education have to be doctors or lawyers to qualify
Usa vs Canada please
Stay tuned :))
Very funny: I prefer Air France to KLM Royal Dutch Airlines; but, I prefer AMS Schiphol airport to CDG Paris airport. This is a fun lifestyle competition.
Air France owns KLM I think ...
