To move to Dubai from the UK and become tax-free, you need to consider the following key steps:
- Visa Application: You will need to apply for a residency visa to legally stay and work in Dubai. There are several visa options such as the Employment Visa, Investor Visa, or Freelance Visa, depending on your situation.
- Income Tax in Dubai: Dubai (and the UAE) does not impose income tax on individuals, which is why many people move there to benefit from a tax-free income. However, if you are a UK citizen, you will need to ensure you are no longer considered a UK tax resident to avoid paying tax in the UK as well.
- Establishing Residency: To become a tax resident in Dubai, you must stay in the country for a specific period (usually more than 183 days per year). You will need to establish a legal residency and fulfill any other requirements for tax exemption.
- Notify UK HMRC: If you are moving to Dubai and plan to become tax-free, you should notify HMRC that you are no longer residing in the UK. This will ensure you are not taxed in both the UK and Dubai. You might need to complete a "P85" form when leaving the UK.
- Contacting Dani Diemzy: If Dani Diemzy is someone you know or a consultant, reaching out to them can be useful for personalized advice. You might want to connect with them for more tailored assistance in your move to Dubai and navigating the tax implications.
