STOP PRESS: The remittance basis is to be abolished from 6 April 2025, although this only applies to foreign income and gains arising on or after that date. The remittance basis rules still apply to unremitted income and gains arising before that date but remitted later. The legislation is included in Finance Bill 2025. For more details, see the Abolition of the remittance basis from 2025/26 guidance note.

Introduction

Any individual returning to the UK after a period of absence should consider whether the temporary non-residence anti-avoidance provisions apply. These rules tax certain income and gains realised during the period of non-residence in the period of return to the UK.

The rules that apply differ depending on whether the individual is treated as having a year of departure of 2013/14 (or later) or a year of departure pre-2013/14. The current rules are considered below. For the pre-2013/14 rules, see Simon’s Taxes E6.137E.

For details of the application of the rules discussed below to income and capital gains, see the UK income tax liability of temporary non-residents
