Tax residency by country
Am I a tax resident of Canada? The day-count rule
This page explains, in plain terms, the day-count rule that typically makes you a tax resident of Canada — and how to keep track of it without doing the maths by hand.
The day threshold
Canada looks beyond a simple day count: your home, family, and centre of economic interests matter, though roughly 183 days of presence is a common reference point.
Canada is not in the Schengen area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule does not apply to stays here.
