Meet Jeremy Savory, the founder of Millionaire Migrant and one of the most influential names in the world of citizenship and residency by investment. Raised in the UK by deaf parents, Jeremy’s journey started with grit and responsibility. By the age of 22, he had left the UK—ditching its 40% tax rates—and what came next is the stuff of legends.

Landing in Dubai with nothing but ambition, Jeremy founded Savory & Partners in 2009. Today, it’s one of the world’s top residency and citizenship by investment firms, trusted by over 11,000 clients and endorsed by multiple governments. His track record? A 100% success rate. Alongside his wife and business partner, Helena, Jeremy has changed the game for high-net-worth individuals seeking true freedom.

Jeremy’s life reads like a blueprint for sovereignty. He holds multiple passports, has travelled to 100+ countries, invested in real estate across 10 nations, and has met 11 heads of state. His children are already global citizens with more passports than most people have stamps in theirs. He’s a regular in Dubai’s most exclusive circles, always connecting with leaders who shape the future.

Jeremy’s roots run deep. As the custodian of a family legacy dating back over 200 years, he is dedicated to preserving his family’s heritage - a reminder of the power of resilience and reinvention.

Through Millionaire Migrant, he’s on a mission to share what he’s learned: how to break free from restrictive systems, reduce tax burdens, and embrace true freedom. He’s building a global community of ultra-high-net-worth individuals who refuse to settle for anything less than self-sovereignty.

Jeremy Savory isn’t just redefining freedom—he’s living it. Whether advising the world’s elite, investing across borders, or empowering others to take control of their lives, Jeremy’s story proves that the future belongs to those bold enough to build it.

Information about Jeremy: Apolitical Stance. Voted once but realized it made no difference. After leaving the UK, spent 20+ years traveling the world and found more opportunities abroad. Doesn’t subscribe to conspiracies (tinfoil people) but takes a pragmatic approach to governments and countries. Let countries compete for you, be in a position to choose for yourself. Era of meritocracy with Citizenship by Investment and programs like the Digital Nomad Visas.

Many countries actively compete for investments by offering incentives like nationality and tax residency. Jeremy believes this should not be conflated with patriotism; instead, it’s about finding places that truly value your contribution.

Both UAE and Portugal offered incredible opportunities, and Jeremy’s contributions—both direct and indirect—were met with reciprocal benefits.

Countries with large taxable populations, like those in Europe, abuse the fact that they can sit on their infrastructure and history. They tax people and companies more and more, especially targeting higher earners.

The more debt countries accumulate, the more ways they find to tax people. Meanwhile, smaller countries, like the Caribbean islands, don’t have much—no big infrastructure, limited flight access, or large taxable populations. So they offer incentives. Offer nationality, tax benefits, and light-touch banking. They essentially say, “Come and set up here.”
Govt overreach - more taxes, restrictions, and demands. But with technology, remote work, and post-COVID awareness, people are realizing they have options. Becoming culturally aware.

There’s a book Jeremy often quotes, The Sovereign Individual, which argues that governments won’t be able to control people as much. The only thing they still control is your passport.

People are tired. There’s a lack of trust in governments to spend tax money wisely.

Growing sentiment that entrepreneurs like Elon Musk, would be better leaders than politicians who often lack real-world experience.

Governments get it wrong too often, especially larger countries in the UK and across Europe. Meanwhile, smaller countries like the UAE, Paraguay, and Georgia are offering incentives to attract global talent.

It’s fascinating that in some countries, like Portugal and Greece, you can leave for 10 years, return, and pay almost no tax—even if you’re originally from there. Countries entice new people. All you need to be is new ( reinforcing the idea that countries are eager to compete for fresh talent).
