Healthcare, taxes & language
The decisive three for a longer stay — with a source to verify each yourself.
Healthcare
Public care is universal via State Health Insurance but under-resourced; best facilities and private/international clinics are in Ulaanbaatar, and complex cases are often referred abroad (e.g. South Korea).
Tip: pair with travel-medical + medical-evacuation cover.
Tax on foreign & pension income
Residents are taxed on worldwide income, including foreign-source and pension income, generally at the 10% flat personal income tax rate, with a credit available for foreign tax paid.
Not tax advice — confirm with a local professional.
