Dominica
Dominica is measured on 1 of the 4 factors. No published figure exists for safety or cost of living or education, so it is not ranked: an average over some of the factors is a different quantity from an average over all of them, and comparing the two would reward the gap. The figures below are published as they stand.
How Dominica performs
Tax
On the high side. Taxes here are heavier than in most countries we cover (75th of 123). Worth taking tax advice before you move. Personal income tax 15-35%, corporate tax 25%, VAT 15%.
