Ex-Pat Tax

Our tax advice for expats will ensure your income tax and capital gains are paid once – even though they need to be declared in several countries.

Most new expat clients are simply unaware of the substantial tax savings achievable – before speaking to us. We’ll help you reduce your taxes by optimising:

• When your taxes are declared.
• Where your taxes are declared.
• Where your assets are held.
• How your assets are moved between tax jurisdictions.
• Double tax relief opportunities

Depth of Service

• You’ll receive comprehensive, tailored tax advice – for your specific needs.
• We have a wealth of experience advising on expat issues and negotiating them with HMRC.
• Many of our tax staff have previously worked for HMRC, so we also know how to work with them effectively on your behalf. 
• We employ an in-house Chartered Tax Advisor (CTA), qualified by the Chartered Institute of Taxation. (CTA is the UK’s highest tax qualification.) He helps our clients reduce their taxes and risks by providing the highest-quality advice for businesses and high-net-worth individuals.
• We’re a mid-sized, full-service firm of Chartered Accountants. We:
  • Have the depth of resources to plan your expat status.
  • Are small enough to care for you as a client.
  • Are based in West London, with several local offices.
