Ongoing Support for Your UK Tax Position
Managing your UK tax position while working overseas is not a one-off exercise. Your circumstances, working patterns and UK ties can change over time, and each tax year must be assessed correctly.

What Tax Planning Involves
Effective tax planning ensures your position is structured correctly before issues arise. We review your circumstances and advise on how the rules apply to you in practice.
This includes assessing your residence status using the Statutory Residence Test, reviewing your UK ties and day limits, and ensuring your overseas work pattern supports your position.
We also consider how and when income is received, how different countries may tax that income, and how reliefs such as Foreign Tax Credit Relief apply.

Compliance is just as important as planning. We ensure your tax returns are prepared correctly, your claims are properly supported and your reporting aligns with HMRC expectations.
If HMRC raises questions or opens an enquiry, we manage the process on your behalf, ensuring your position is clearly explained and supported with the appropriate evidence.
