I was born in Ecuador but grew up in the USA for most of my life and have both an Ecuadorian and USA Passport. From what I know the USA taxes its citizens no matter where in the world they live. So I am curious to know if I retire to Ecuador will I need to pay taxes to both the Ecuadorian government and the USA government being that I am a citizen to both countries? In short, I am not interested in renouncing either of my two passports but I am curious to know if double taxation is a reality for people like me? Or if there is some legal way to minimize the tax bill of either country? I would very much like to hear from Ecuadorian/American dual citizenship people like me to learn if retiring to Ecuador involve double taxation.
