Foreign Income and Gains (FIG) Regime Analysis

Foreign Income and Gains (FIG) Regime Analysis

The abolition of the "non-dom" system and the introduction of the residence-based Foreign Income and Gains (FIG) regime on 6 April 2025 represents the biggest shift in UK international tax for a generation. If you are moving to the UK, this consultation ensures you understand exactly how to qualify for the 4-year window of 100% tax relief on your foreign income and gains.

International Tax UK Residency FIG Regime

Who this service is for?

This consultation is essential for high-net-worth individuals and internationally mobile professionals who are either moving to the UK for the first time or returning after a significant period abroad. It is specifically designed for those who need to understand if they qualify for the new tax-free repatriation rules before they commit to UK residency.

DISCOVER WHAT HAPPENS NEXT

Eligibility and 10-Year History Review

We will discuss your global residency history over the last decade to confirm you meet the strict "10-year non-resident" requirement. This is beneficial because even a short period of accidental UK residency in the last ten years can completely disqualify you from the FIG regime, and identifying this early allows for better long-term planning.

Strategic Cost-Benefit Analysis:

The call will focus on whether claiming FIG relief is actually the right move for you. This discussion is vital because claiming the relief means you lose your UK Personal Allowance and Capital Gains Tax annual exemption; we manually review your income levels to ensure the tax you save on foreign gains is greater than the allowances you are giving up.

Remittance and Repatriation Strategy

We will explore your plans for bringing foreign funds into the UK. This is beneficial because, under the new rules, relieved funds can be brought to the UK tax-free, but you need a clear strategy to distinguish these from "pre-2025" funds which may still be subject to old "non-dom" tax charges.

Manual Reporting

We conclude the session by walking through the extensive disclosure requirements needed for a valid claim. Following the call, you will receive a written summary report detailing our analysis. This provides you with an accurate record of your eligibility and a roadmap for your future compliance.
