01 · DEFINITIONWhat Residence means
Residence is a core legal connecting factor across registration law, civil law, tax law, and immigration law. In many jurisdictions, maintaining a dwelling can under certain conditions already be enough to establish residence, even if the person does not live there full time. For internationally mobile individuals, residence is therefore not merely a mailing address but often a trigger for broader regulatory and tax consequences. It should be distinguished carefully from tax residency, habitual presence, center of vital interests, and purely formal address structures.
