Non UK Resident Tax Planning
As you're probably aware, losing your UK resident status can be a very important tax break. If you're non UK resident you are exempt from UK income tax on overseas income and can avoid UK capital gains tax as well. Actually determining when you are and when you aren't UK resident can therefore have a big impact on your UK tax bill. This is currently a 'hot topic' with HMRC and they're looking in detail at the nature of many emigrants connections with the UK. The recent (Feb 2010) Court of Appeal decision in the Gaines Cooper saga has reiterated the importance of ensuring there is a distinct break when leaving the UK and avoiding substantial UK connections. In this section we include all articles concerning non UK residence. Join up today to read unique tax planning articles and obtain online tax guidance on achieving and using non UK resident status.
