Non-domicile tax planning is one of the most complex areas of UK tax law, involving the interaction of residence, domicile and remittance rules that can trap the unwary.

We’ve helped clients navigate everything from initial UK arrival planning to complex multi-generational wealth structures, always with an eye on both current benefits and future legislative risks.

Frequently Asked Questions.
Here is a list of the most frequently asked questions from our clients.
Q.
Can I still benefit from non-domicile status if I’m deemed domiciled?
A.
Once you become deemed domiciled (after 15 years of UK residence), you lose most non-domicile benefits for income tax and capital gains tax purposes. However, you may still benefit from excluded property trust structures established before becoming deemed domiciled, which can continue to provide inheritance tax advantages even after you lose your non-domicile status.
Q.
What is the remittance basis charge and when do I need to pay it?
A.
The remittance basis charge was an annual flat fee that allowed non-dom individuals to pay UK tax only on foreign income or gains when those funds were brought to the UK. However, from 6 April 2025, the remittance basis charge was abolished and instead new UK residents can claim the Foreign Income and Gains (FIG) regime which exempts foreign income/gains from tax for up to four years when claimed in a Self-Assessment tax return.
Q.
How long can I benefit from non-domicile status in the UK?
A.
You can generally benefit from non-domicile status indefinitely, provided you maintain your non-UK domicile of origin or choice. However, after 15 years of UK tax residence, you become deemed domiciled for most tax purposes, which significantly reduces the available benefits and requires careful planning to optimise your position.
