For people with connections to more than one country, tax comes down to the detail – where you are resident, where your assets sit, and how long you have been here. The rules in this area have changed in recent years, which makes clear advice more valuable than ever.

We advise international families, non-UK domiciled individuals, and UK individuals with assets or a life abroad, working with our private wealth team on the trusts and estate planning that often go with it. If your circumstances cross a border, we can help you make sense of where you stand.

We advise on:

Domicile (where it is still relevant)

The UK connections to be aware of, and to avoid, to stay outside the UK tax net

UK tax residency (and the UK tax it brings into play)

Planning for UK nationals who now live abroad

Using offshore trusts to hold UK assets

Inheritance tax exposure for individuals who are UK long-term resident
