Guide: Residence & Domicile

1st March, 2016

A large part of a person’s legal identity is based upon where they live at any one time and how long they will be staying there. If you stay in the UK for a prolonged period of time, you are going to be liable for tax at some point. The exact point and how much tax you will have to pay will depend in large part on whether residence or domicile applies to you.

Read our guide to understanding the terms residence and domicile as well as their legal and tax implications.

Something to shout about

Outstanding service and knowledge. Very highly recommended. We met with Keith Senior for advice relating to starting a new business in Bury. Keith met with us for close to an hour at no charge and provided both a referral and excellent advice. Everybody we met has been a pleasure to deal with and we feel much more confident moving forward with our plans. You will be in good hands with this firm.

I chose to come to Jacobs Allen for advice as I felt you as Chartered Accountants were clearly knowledgeable yet very approachable, friendly and welcoming. To have all of my queries dealt with so professionally in a relaxed manner allayed any concerns I had about my tax affairs, past present and future. Your advice giving me a clear plan of the actions I have to take and your offer of assistance to put it into practice helped enormously in focussing my attention on building my business.

You are obviously very knowledgeable and able to relate your expertise in an easy to understand way. We will definitely use Jacobs Allen Chartered Accountants again and believe that it was a relatively small amount of money, well spent to have this financial and tax review.
