Moving Abroad: International Tax and Residency Planning
Relocation is not a lifestyle decision. It is a structural one. As more UK founders and high net worth individuals explore opportunities in Dubai, Cyprus, Europe and the US, international mobility is becoming a serious strategic consideration. Without proper planning, moving abroad can trigger unexpected UK tax exposure, dual residency risks and long term compliance issues. This session sets out what relocation actually involves, both personally and corporately, so you can plan the move properly rather than discover the problems afterwards.
What we will explore
- UK exit tax and the Statutory Residence Test in practice
- Corporate structuring before relocation
- Managing ongoing UK ties
- Cross border income and double taxation risks
- Transfer pricing and international compliance
- Residency pathways across UAE, Cyprus, Europe and the US
- Aligning personal wealth and corporate structures
