We are a firm of chartered accountants and tax advisors based in the South East of England but with an international reach providing personal tax advice to individuals all over the world.
We know that managing your own tax affairs can be stressful and confusing. We are here to help. Our aim is to keep things simple, to provide a great service and to give you confidence that your tax affairs are up to date and have been arranged as efficiently as possible.
The tax position for internationally mobile individuals can be particularly complex as special UK rules need to be considered in conjunction with other foreign tax rules. We are experts in advising British expats and individuals, including non-doms, moving to and from the UK.
Information on some of the areas of most interest to our clients can be found below. Please contact us for specific advice.
This is a question which often comes up, perhaps unsurprisingly as domicile is a very British concept and is not recognised by most of the world.
For UK tax purposes, residence and domicile are two very different concepts but both have a big impact on your tax position in the UK.
UK expats and other non-UK residents are, generally, not liable to UK capital gains tax (CGT), even on disposals of assets situated in the UK. However, there are some exceptions to this general rule, for example in the case of disposals by individuals who are temporarily non-UK resident.
Under the SRT, you are normally either UK resident or non-UK resident for a full tax year (which runs from 6th April to 5th April) and at all times in that tax year.
Because we will provide a great service! Here’s what our clients say about us:
