US policy entangles US citizens and permanent-residency holders in tax and banking nightmares for years. Often even after a person has renounced their citizenship or residency, banks in other countries will treat them as US tax subjects anyway and impose onerous and privacy-violating reporting requirements. I can’t imagine the USA becoming a popular country for e-residency until its tax policies are more similar to other countries.


Apologies for not being clear, this is to support digital ID modernization efforts, not support US e-residency for those outside of the US.
