The guidance note covers the deemed domicile rules for inheritance tax which apply from 6 April 2017, the rules that applied before that date and a comparison of the two sets of rules as well as details of how the transition between the two sets of rules worked. It considers the consequences of becoming UK domiciled and details the differences between the inheritance tax rules and the income and capital gains tax rules.

Deemed domicile from 6 April 2017

A person not otherwise domiciled in the UK under the general law may be deemed to be domiciled for tax purposes. The concept of deemed domicile for income tax (IT) and capital gains tax (CGT) was introduced with effect from 6 April 2017. See the Deemed domicile for income tax and capital gains tax (2017/18 onwards) guidance note in the Personal Tax module. At the same time, the long-standing inheritance tax rule for deemed domicile, based on 17 out of 20 years’ residence in the UK, was amended.
