Flamingo Compliance is not just a day counter. It combines automatic travel tracking, tax residency monitoring, visa tools, alerts, and exportable records for broader cross-border compliance.

A tax residency tracker helps people who live, work, or travel across borders monitor physical presence, count days against relevant thresholds for multiple years, and keep records for tax and visa compliance.

Yes. Flamingo helps users monitor physical presence and track jurisdiction-specific thresholds so they can act before accidentally triggering tax residency or related compliance issues.

Yes. Flamingo automatically records movements between countries, US states, and select cities, helping users maintain a reliable physical presence history for tax residency and visa tracking.

Flamingo Compliance allows you to export detailed audit-ready reports of your travel history and residency data — perfect for sharing with CPAs, lawyers, accountants, tax advisors, or immigration specialists. These reports give you a clear, organized view of your movements and presence across different jurisdictions, tailored to your needs.

Yes, Flamingo Compliance’s alerts and notifications help you stay compliant with key travel and residency rules by keeping you informed — before you cross critical thresholds. You’ll receive in-app alerts and optional push notifications (if you turn on notifications in Settings) at 10, 5, and 3 days before triggering a rule related to tax residency, domicile, visas, permits, and more. In addition to countdown warnings, Flamingo Compliance also provides predictive tips based on your current pace. You’ll see how many days you can stay or need to leave to stay on track with your selected goal — whether it’s evading tax residency or securing a permanent status.

For accurate automatic travel tracking, it's essential to set Location Services to "Always" instead of "While Using the App." This ensures Flamingo Compliance can track your movements in the background, even when the app is closed, eliminating the need to open the app each time you cross a country or state border. Rest assured, extensive testing has been conducted to ensure minimal battery usage with this location setting.

We recommend opening the app approximately every month, as the iPhone operating system may block an app’s tracking feature due to inactivity. Regularly opening Flamingo ensures continuous and accurate travel tracking without interruption.

Flamingo Compliance never tracks your precise location. Instead, we use city-level geolocation to determine your general location for the purpose of recording your movements between countries, US states and cities. This approach ensures complete privacy for you and barely has any impact on your battery power.

Yes, you can add your past travel information to the app. There are two ways to do this: manually add each trip to your timeline one-by-one to track your travel, or if you usually take many photos, you can automatically reconstruct your travel history by scanning your Photo Library without re-entering it manually. We do not upload or see any of your photos; we only scan their location and timestamp information, so the scanning process takes just a few minutes.

Yes, you have the option to track individual UK countries (England, Scotland, etc.) separately or combine them and record all visits as the UK. Additionally, you can track your visits to the islands of Jersey and Guernsey separately from mainland UK.

The Flamingo Compliance is not yet available on Android, but we are actively working on its development. Stay tuned for updates!

Flamingo Compliance is designed with complete privacy at its core. Your travel, residency, and visa data is encrypted and stored locally only on your device — we do not collect or store this information on our servers. If you have a paid Flamingo Compliance subscription (Settler, Resident, Globetrotter), you can enable iCloud sync to keep your data consistent across multiple devices. Your information still isn’t stored on Flamingo Compliance’s servers—only within Apple’s secure ecosystem. We also maintain bank-level data security measures and employ multiple layers of backups, so you can travel with peace of mind, knowing your valuable records are protected.

At the moment, Flamingo Compliance does not support multiple travelers under one account due to our privacy architecture — all travel data is processed and stored locally on each user’s device and isn’t transmitted to central servers. However, if you need to share your travel data with other people, such as your spouse, relative, advisor or lawyer, you can instantly generate and share reports. You can select exactly which data to include (country, state, date range, etc.), export the report, and send it directly to the person. The process is quick and fully controlled by the user.

Flamingo Compliance offers corporate and partner programs for companies that work with globally mobile employees or clients. Organizations can purchase bulk Flamingo Compliance licenses to provide to their team members. Our partnership program is commonly used by companies with international staff, remote teams, frequent business travelers, or employees relocating across borders. They help reduce compliance risks by giving employees a simple way to track physical presence in different jurisdictions and document their travel history when needed. If your organization is interested in providing Flamingo Compliance to employees or clients, you can learn more about the partner program or contact us to discuss partnership options.
