Hi everyone,
I am an UK tax resident (Greek citizen) moving out of the UK on the 30th of Sept 2021 to get a new job in Hong Kong.
I have an income in the UK as well as from Greece. I also have investments.
Now that I am moving permanently to Hong Kong I want to make sure I don't pay UK tax on my Greek income or any other capital gains that arises (I am unlikely to return to the UK):
--> 1) Do I need to tell the UK government I am leaving in order to avoid paying income on my Greek income? How do I do that?
--> 2) If instead of quiting my job, I take a 2-3 year unpaid leave while working out of Hong Kong would the UK government consider me a UK tax resident?
--> 3) If I move on the 30th of Sept as planned I will have been in the UK less than 6 months in the current tax year. Does that mean I can say I have not been a tax resident for the entire year or am I liable for tax on my global earning until I leave? Ie is the tax year "all or nothing" or can they treat you differently from month to month?
Thank you very much!
