UK Tax Residence & Domicile Disputes

In recent years HMRC have been very successful in the tax courts in arguing that individuals and businesses that have left the UK are in law, UK Tax Resident.  A challenge to your Tax Residence position or the Tax Residence of your company by the UK tax authorities can be worrying, disruptive and very costly in tax, interest and penalties: if the taxman wins. The rules for individuals who are non-domiciled in the UK are also very complex, as are the criteria for defining the remittance of income and capital. 

These have proved to be fertile hunting grounds for the taxman in recent years; and will be especially important in the New Disclosure Opportunity and the Liechtenstein Disclosure Facility.

Lynam Tax partners have successfully represented individuals, trusts and companies in recent years in demonstrating to HM Revenue & Customs’ Centre for Non Residents experts that those clients were non-resident in the UK for Income Tax, Corporation Tax and Capital Gains Tax purposes.  This is a complex and constantly evolving area of tax law where our tax experts can add tremendous value. 

Lynam Tax enquiry experts have also helped many non-domiciled individuals save large sums by careful analysis of their affairs and the correct application of complex legal principles: which the vast majority of tax inspectors seem to misundesratnd.

Dealing with a Tax Residence enquiry or a domicile or remittance dispute  requires specialist knowledge, deep experience and a proven methodology in getting investigations and disputes resolved.
