Non-dom status is gone, thresholds are frozen to 2031, and a new mansion tax and inheritance relief cuts are already confirmed. If you're weighing a move for your business, a UAE structure can mean 0% on qualifying income — set up properly, before you ever leave the UK.
None of these happened in isolation. Together, they're why UK entrepreneurs are relocating in numbers not seen before — and why the ones doing it well are structuring their move months in advance, not scrambling after the fact.
Without non-dom status, income and gains earned anywhere are now in scope for UK tax — a structural shift, not a rate change. A narrow 4-year relief exists only for people who've been non-UK resident for the past 10 years.
The November 2025 Budget introduced a mansion tax on high-value residential property — one more line item in a widening set of wealth-focused measures.
100% inheritance tax relief on business and agricultural property is now capped at £1 million combined, with only 50% relief above that threshold.
As wages rise and thresholds don't, more income is pulled into higher tax bands every year — a slow, compounding increase with no vote required.
Most people who move well don't arrange anything after arriving — they arrange it from the UK, months ahead. That's the order we work in too.

Free zone or mainland, structured for your actual income, not just a license.
