One of the main benefits of non residence is the ability to sell certain assets free of UK CGT.

As UK CGT is charged at 28% for higher rate tax payers this can make a move abroad very attractive.

There are however a number of anti avoidance rules that apply to anyone looking to move abroad to avoid UK CGT.

In this guide we look at issues such as:

Selling assets when non resident to reduce UK CGT

When the anti avoidance rules will apply both before and after 6 April 2013

How to plan for a return to UK residence to minimise future CGT

Selling a former main residence as a non resident or after you return to the UK

How to sell free of CGT and avoid the 5 years non residence requirement

When HMRC can challenge disposals after you've left the UK

Delaying a disposal until after you leave the UK

Selling UK business assets as a non UK resident free of UK CGT

Using offshore trusts for CGT avoidance

CGT planning for trading stock and using double tax treaties

Steps to consider when becoming non resident to avoid CGT
