Important dates

Key HMRC deadlines that still apply overseas

5 April

End of the UK tax year. Your residence position and income for that year are finalised.

31 January

Online Self Assessment filing deadline and payment deadline for tax owed, wherever you live. Late filing incurs an automatic £100 penalty.

31 October

Paper filing deadline — relevant if you are required to submit a paper return from overseas.

5 October

Deadline to register for Self Assessment if this is your first UK return as a non-resident or expat.

Ongoing

Non-Resident Landlord Scheme registration should be arranged before rent starts being received, where applicable.

Ongoing

Records must be kept for at least 5 years after the 31 January filing deadline, including foreign tax evidence.

FAQ

Overseas tax questions answered

If you have UK-source income — such as rental income, UK employment, pensions or dividends — you will usually still need to file a UK Self Assessment return even as a non-resident. We assess your specific position and confirm exactly what needs to be reported, so nothing is missed.
Living somewhere with no local income tax doesn’t remove any UK filing obligations you may have. If you have UK-source income — such as rental income, dividends, pensions or earnings — or you haven’t yet established non-UK tax residence under the Statutory Residence Test, you may still need to file a UK Self Assessment return. We assess your residence position and UK income sources specifically, regardless of the tax rules where you live, and work entirely remotely so your time zone is never a barrier.
The Statutory Residence Test is HMRC’s framework for determining whether you are UK tax resident in a given tax year, based on day counts, ties to the UK such as family and property, and work patterns. Getting this wrong can significantly affect your tax bill. We work through the test with you and keep a clear record of the outcome and reasoning.
Split year treatment allows the tax year to be divided into a UK part and an overseas part in the year you move abroad or return to the UK, so you are only taxed as a resident for the UK portion. Strict conditions apply, and it must be identified and claimed correctly on your return — we check whether you qualify.
The UK has double taxation agreements with most countries, designed to prevent the same income being taxed twice. We identify which treaty applies to your situation, and claim the correct relief or foreign tax credit on your UK return so you are not paying more than necessary.
Under the Non-Resident Landlord Scheme, you may need to register with HMRC so your rent can be paid without automatic basic rate tax deduction, or arrange for your agent or tenant to deduct tax correctly. Either way, the rental income still needs to be reported each year via Self Assessment. We handle registration and the ongoing filing for you.
If you are UK resident, worldwide income and gains are generally reportable, including foreign interest, dividends and investment gains, though the remittance basis may apply in some cases for non-UK domiciled individuals. We assess your domicile and residence position together to establish exactly what needs to be declared.
Support starts from £199, depending on the number of income sources and countries involved, and whether residence, split year or treaty positions need to be worked through in detail. All fees are confirmed clearly before any work begins — no surprises, wherever you’re based.
