OK, here's my rather unusual situation.
I left South Africa last year after 9 years there, resident, all good up to then.
I took a job straight away working in a number of African countries, which I've been doing for a year. My contract is in Dubai and I'm paid from there.
But I'm not a full resident in any of the countries I've been working in, and I'm not a Dubai resident. So what happens with tax residency now?
Does my domicile automatically return to UK, even though I don't have an address there? I was born there but haven't lived there for 25 years!
I am looking to relocate to UK or Ireland so I'm guessing I'll need to file a return somewhere to make it all legit.
I haven't been in UK anywhere near 90 days in last year, so is best thing to do put a return in there? But I don't have an address
And of course there's the dreaded Common Reporting Standard to deal with at some point, so I guess I'll need an address somewhere! So then there's the issue of getting an address without having one at the minute, which is easier said than done!
Any advice on this
Thanks!
