Which Service Do You Need?

The UK tax system treats you differently depending on where you physically reside. Please choose the scenario that matches your situation:

I live in the UK

(Former Non Doms & New Arrivals)

You are a UK resident with foreign connections. The April 2025 reforms (FIG Regime) directly affect your worldwide wealth.

I live abroad

(Overseas Investors & Expats)

You are a UK resident with foreign connections. The April 2025 reforms (FIG Regime) directly affect your worldwide wealth.

Non Dom & New Arrivals

If you were a Non Dom, your tax strategy must change immediately to avoid double taxation.

1. The 4 Year FIG Regime For New Arrivals

If you are new to the UK (or haven’t been resident for the last 10 years). You can opt for the Foreign Income and Gains (FIG) Regime.

You pay 0% UK tax on foreign income and gains for your first 4 years of residence.

Unlike the old rules, you can bring this money into the UK freely to buy a home or invest.

We verify your eligibility and file the necessary elections to lock in this relief.

2. Transitional Planning: The TRF Limited Time

For long-term residents with pre-2025 offshore funds, the government offers a temporary amnesty called the Temporary Repatriation Facility (TRF).

Bring your old foreign income to the UK at a reduced tax rate of 12% (2025/26 & 2026/27) or 15% (2027/28).

Why Act Now: After 2028, remitting these funds could cost you up to 45%. We help you identify which funds qualify to maximise this saving.

3. Trusts & Global Wealth

The protections for Excluded Property Trusts have been removed for long-term residents. We review your trust structures to prevent immediate tax charges on trust income.

Living Abroad Non Resident Services

If you live overseas, the FIG regime changes generally do not affect you unless you plan to move here. Your primary focus is complying with UK tax on your UK-sourced income.

1. Non Resident Landlords (NRLS)

If you rent out UK property while living abroad, you must pay UK tax on that profit.

Our Service: We register you for the Non Resident Landlord Scheme (NRLS) so your letting agent stops withholding 20% tax at source. We then file your annual Self Assessment to claim deductions for mortgage interest 20% credit and repairs.

2. Selling UK Property 60-Day Reporting

Capital Gains Tax (CGT) rules for non residents are strict.

The Rule: If you sell a UK residential property. You must report it and pay any tax due within 60 days of completion.

The Risk: Late filing penalties are automatic. We handle the computation and submission for you.

3. The Statutory Residence Test (SRT)

Accidental Residency is the biggest risk for expats.

The Trap: Spending just a few too many days in the UK can trigger full UK tax residency, pulling your worldwide income into the UK tax net.

Red circular bullet point icon with white specks

Our Service: We provide a "Day Count Review" to ensure you stay firmly non-resident.

The Intersection: Inheritance Tax (IHT)

This affects BOTH groups.

The new Residence-Based IHT Rule (effective April 2025) has a long tail.

For Residents: Once you have lived in the UK for 10 years, your worldwide assets are liable to 40% IHT.

For Non-Residents (The 10-Year Tail): If you leave the UK after being a long-term resident, you remain liable for UK IHT on your worldwide assets for 10 years after you leave.

Action: Whether you are arriving or leaving, we must review your Estate Planning to protect your family.
