Question

Is there such a thing that even though they say today that the law of the land is the law, nevertheless, because I do not live in that country, the laws of that country do not apply to me, and therefore I can extract money from them because I am not obligated to the laws of that country?

Answer

Hello,

Since the laws of every country are binding, it is not permissible to violate their laws, whether you are in their place or elsewhere.
