Proposed changes include the repeal of personal exemptions for expatriates benefiting from the expatriate tax concessions that have foreign travel exclusion in excess of 25%, repeal the category of non-resident taxpayers who have an abode in Belgium; and potential increase of the amount of individual income tax due in certain circumstances.
