Meet the Founder
Melanie D. Vance
International Tax Advisor & Founder of intltaxexpert.com
With more than 12 years of experience in international tax, I have helped hundreds of expats and digital nomads from over 40 countries optimize their tax position while remaining fully compliant with IRS, OECD, and local tax authority rules. Previously, I worked as an international tax consultant in Southeast Asia and with a Big 4 accounting firm. I hold a degree in Accounting and Taxation and am a certified tax advisor. As an expat myself, I understand the real challenges you face every tax season.
All articles on this site are researched from official sources (IRS publications, OECD guidelines, tax treaty texts, and the latest regulatory updates) and are regularly reviewed for accuracy.
