Why this guide exists

Every adviser sees one piece.

Setup agents

Sell the licence and the visa, then tell you to "speak to an Australian adviser" about the part that decides your tax.

Tax and wealth firms

Know the ATO rules, but don't set up your company, your visa or your UAE bank account.

Global "Plan B" firms

Big-picture strategy across dozens of countries, usually built for Americans, with minimums to match.

The Exit Order puts the whole move on one page, in sequence: leaving Australia properly, landing in Dubai or Bali, and living there without surprises. It's the same order we work through with clients.
