What Are
Non Dom Residents and Non Residents?

In the UK tax system residents non residents & non domiciled residents are treated differently and Each category offers unique tax planning opportunities.

Non Domiciled Residents

Foreign nationals living in the UK may be classed as non-domiciled residents. This status means they are considered UK tax residents but their domicile remains their country of origin.

How We Can Help
Taxation of Non-Doms and Non-Residents

UK Non-Resident Tax Planning

Clarifying your tax residence status can be complicated. Even if you no longer live in the UK you may still need to file a tax return (if you are a director of a UK company or if you make gains from UK based assets). t is highly advisable that you consult with a chartered tax accountant to avoid penalties paying disproportionate amounts of tax and to ensure that all necessary information is disclosed to HMRC.

If you plan to move abroad from UK preparation and planning is essential to make certain that you avoid any pitfalls. An IBISS & Co tax accountant will help ease the transition process, overseeing a range of matters related to taxation of non-doms and non-residents, including:

Non-Dom Tax Planning

Non-UK dom individuals can elect to be taxed on the remittance basis. Provided that specific conditions are met electing to be taxed in this way allows the individual to avoid paying UK tax on non-UK assets and income. However when it comes to taxation of non-doms, the rules are complex and there are various limitations in place; moreover – as with all legislation – regulations are subject to change. If you are a non-dom, it is therefore crucial that you engage an experienced tax consultant to formulate an effective tax strategy.
