Who runs The Global Plan

Lachlan MacDonald

Updated 13 November 2026

I help Australians and people who work online get a second residency, and set up the company that goes with it.

I run The Global Plan from Sydney. It brings together The Paraguay Plan, The Hong Kong Plan and China Plan, plus company setup in the UAE and the US. I went through Paraguayan residency myself, so I know which parts are quick and which take months.

Where I can help

• Paraguay. Temporary and permanent residency, the cédula, and the path to citizenship. More on The Paraguay Plan.
• Hong Kong. Company setup and help with bank onboarding. The Hong Kong Plan.
• Mainland China. A written plan first, then the company. China Plan.
• UAE. Dubai companies and residency, with a licensed partner on the ground.
• United States. A Wyoming or Delaware LLC and the ITIN.

Where to start

Most people don't need every country. Tell me where you live, where your income comes from and where you want to spend your time, and I'll tell you which one fits. If none of them do, I'll say that too.

A note on tax

A second residency or an overseas company does not end your Australian tax residency by itself. The ATO looks at where you actually live. I'm not a registered tax agent and I don't give tax advice. I refer clients to a registered tax adviser before they move.
