Who we support
UK tax advice for globally mobile professionals
We support expats and digital nomads with UK tax obligations who require specialist UK tax advice.
Become non-resident and keep HMRC off your worldwide income
We help expats, landlords and retirees exit the UK tax system properly, using split-year treatment, non-resident status and double tax treaties, without leaving loose ends behind.
SRT
Residence planning
The exact day counts and ties you need to achieve split-year treatment and stay non-resident.
SA109
Non-resident planning
Limiting HMRC’s taxing rights on employment income, pensions and investments once you’ve gone.
P85
Reclaim what you’ve overpaid
We file your return, report your status and get PAYE tax back from HMRC each year.
Move to the UK with a clear, tax-efficient strategy in place
For new arrivals, returning Brits and long-term residents, we structure your first four years around the FIG scheme and double tax treaties so nothing is taxed twice.
SRT
Arrival year planning
Timing your arrival so residency starts when it should, not retrospectively from 6 April.
FIG
Four-year exemption
Foreign income and gains exempt for four years if you’ve been non-resident for the prior ten.
TRF
Bringing money in
Remitting pre-2025 foreign income at reduced rates while the window is open.
You qualify by having been non-resident for the ten tax years before you arrive.
Non-resident, still paying UK tax you don’t owe
You work for a UK company from Lisbon, Bangkok or Dubai. Payroll never noticed you left, and PAYE has been coming out every month since. We fix the status, stop the deductions and reclaim what has already gone.
SRT
Non-resident planning
Day counts, ties and split-year treatment, evidenced properly so your status holds up if HMRC asks.
NT code
Stop the tax at source
An NT code applied for, so future salary reaches you without UK tax deducted.
Refund
UK tax refund
Overpaid PAYE reclaimed, for this tax year and up to four earlier ones.
Letting UK property while you live abroad
Rental income stays UK taxable wherever you live, and your agent withholds 20% at source until HMRC is told otherwise. Filed properly, the tax actually due is usually a fraction of what was taken, and sometimes nothing at all.
NRL
Receive your rent gross
Registering under the Non-Resident Landlord scheme so tax stops being deducted before the money reaches you.
SA105
Rental return
Profits reported with every allowable expense claimed, plus the personal allowance where you qualify.

FAQs
Questions we get every week
Do I need to file a UK tax return if I live abroad?
Often, yes. Even as a non-resident you may need to file — because of UK rental income, a UK pension, reclaiming overpaid PAYE, or claiming split-year treatment or non-resident status. We prepare returns for clients across 50+ countries and handle the HMRC side entirely.
What is the Statutory Residence Test?
It's HMRC's official test for whether you're UK resident in a given tax year. It looks at days spent in the UK, your ties here (family, accommodation, work, and where you spend the most days), and your residence in earlier years. Get this wrong and everything downstream is wrong too.
What is split-year treatment and do I qualify?
It splits a tax year into a resident part and a non-resident part. You may qualify if you're leaving or arriving mid-year for work or a change in home. There are eight cases, each with its own conditions — we work out which one fits.
What is the FIG regime and who can use it?
The Foreign Income and Gains regime exempts foreign income and gains from UK tax for up to four years. To qualify you must have been non-resident for the ten tax years before you arrive.
I sold my UK property while abroad. Do I owe capital gains tax?
Yes. Non-residents must report a UK property disposal and pay any CGT within 60 days of completion, even where no tax is due. We calculate the gain and file the return for you.
What is the temporary non-residence rule?
If you leave the UK and return within roughly five years, gains and certain income received while you were away can become taxable in the year you come back. It catches a lot of people out — we plan for it before you go.
