Our Case Study on How UK Expats in Dubai Can Navigate Capital Gains Tax on UK Property
Navigating the complexities of Capital Gains Tax (CGT) in the UK can be daunting, more so for UK expatriates who are now living abroad. For those residing in some of the more tax-friendly jurisdictions such as Dubai, understanding the implications of CGT on UK property sales is crucial. In this post, we explore a recent success story where the expertise of our Managing Partner, Charles Tateson, here at The Tax Faculty LLP significantly reduced a substantial potential CGT bill for our clients.
Introduction
Our clients, a couple who had moved from the UK to Dubai for career opportunities, found themselves facing potential CGT liabilities of over £1 million on their UK property portfolio. As seasoned professionals with successful careers in both the UK and in Dubai, they had built up a substantial set of investments. However, the prospect of such significant tax implications was a major concern when planning on selling the properties or gifting some of the portfolio to UK based family members.
Client Background
The primary challenge here was the potential CGT liability on their property investments, as initially estimated by their previous accountant – obviously causing a great deal of worry to our clients. The complexities of tax legislation for expatriates are vast and often not well understood without a specialist to assist, posing a significant barrier to efficient tax planning.
Challenges Faced
At The Tax Faculty LLP, we pride ourselves on our profound understanding of UK tax laws, including those less known provisions that can be highly beneficial for our clients. Our Managing Partner is a self-confessed “Tax Geek” and thrives on the more specialist areas of CGT. In this case, we applied our specialised knowledge of legislation that many may be unaware of, which pertains specifically to UK expats when selling a UK-based residential property.
Strategic Approach
Through our meticulous planning and strategic application of specific tax legislation, we were able to almost completely mitigate the CGT liabilities for our clients. Their relief was immense, and they praised our professional approach and in-depth knowledge of the tax laws.
Further, recognising the importance of compliance with UK tax filing deadlines, we ensured that all CGT Returns were accurately completed and filed within the 60-day limit following the sale of each property. This prompt filing is crucial in avoiding potential penalties and demonstrates our commitment to providing each of our clients with a comprehensive, reliable service. Our clients were exceptionally pleased with the outcome, not only for the financial savings but also for the efficiency and professionalism with which their case was handled.
Results Achieved
This case highlights the importance of seeking expert advice tailored to your specific circumstances, especially when dealing with complex international tax issues. For UK expatriates living in Dubai, partnering with a tax advisor who understands both the UK and local tax landscapes is crucial.
