I hold a British Citizen passport but I have never stayed in

Customer Question

I hold a British Citizen passport but I have never stayed in the UK for more than14 days. I don't have a home in the UK either. I'd like to know the difference between an UK ordinary resident and a UK statutory tax resident ("STR"), if any. For example, if I first arrived to UK on 1 Jul 2022, will I become a UK ordinary resident immediately after landing on UK because of my BC status? Will I be only liable to UK tax when I have stayed in UK for more than 183 days i.e. when I become a STR in the tax year 2022/23? Am I correct to say that when I leave the UK permanently, I become a non-STR from the day of my departure? Many thanks.

Hi,

Thank you for your query.  I am a Solicitor-Advocate in the UK and will be assisting you with your question today.

Is the question relating to domicile status?

As a UK Passport holder, you are deemed to be a UK Citizen.

With reference to domicile status, you would not be liable to pay tax in the UK, if you are not domiciled in the UK

Hi,

In the absence of further information, I can only provide a general answer.

If you are not domiciled in the UK, you would not be required to pay tax in the UK.

I hope this answers your question. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

Kind regards,
