Friedland Trelcat Bonnici is a full-service international law firm bridging Asia and Europe. The firm supports, and business law guiding private clients and corporations through the complexities of cross-border structuring, residence, and citizenship by investment.
We welcomed Tom Wong, Partner at Friedland Trelcat Bonnici. Tom heads US/Asia business development from Bangkok, focused on residence & citizenship planning for HNW families and founders.
Key Takeaways from our conversation on The Golden Quarter Show include:
Outbound US demand is surging for second residence/citizenship—drivers range from political volatility and safety to remote-work flexibility and education planning.
Europe still pulls: Portugal remains a top EU residence path via funds/HQA/D-7 visas but diligence is essential as rules shift.
New Zealand’s Active Investor Plus is back on the radar for UHNW Americans after 2025 rule relaxations.
Asia as a lifestyle hub: Thailand’s LTR framework keeps drawing long-stay professionals and retirees.
Do it right, not fast: Immigration, tax, banking and asset placement must be planned together
