Domicile' normally relates to the country or state which an individual regards as their permanent/ultimate home location. A person's domicile is established at birth and this remains until an individual resettles with the firm intention of remaining in that new location.
'Residence' is normally determined by an individual's status at a particular time. The rules vary from country to country, but in many cases presence in a country for more than 183 days in any one year is enough to constitute residence for tax purposes.
