RFIG21510 - Statutory Residence Test (SRT): Temporary non-residence: Introduction
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-04)


When an individual returns to the UK after a period of temporary non-residence, they may be charged to tax on certain income and gains they received, (or remitted to the UK), in that period of temporary non-residence.

An individual will be regarded as temporarily non-resident if:
- following a residence period where they had sole UK residence, 1 or more residence periods occur for which they do not have sole UK residence
- in 4 or more of the 7 years immediately preceding their year of departure they had either:
- sole UK residence for the tax year
- the year was a split year that included a residence period for which they had sole UK residence
- their period of non-residence is a period of 5 years or less
For these special rules not to apply, the individual’s period of non-residence must exceed 5 years, that is, a minimum period of five years plus 1 day. For example, 4 May 2015 to 4 May 2020.

We, the undersigned, commit to honour the Armed Forces Covenant and support the Armed Forces Community. We recognise the value Serving Personnel, both Regular and Reservists, Veterans and military families contribute to our business and our country.

The Armed Forces Covenant

An enduring covenant between the people of the United Kingdom, Her Majesty’s Government and all those who serve or have served in the Armed Forces of the Crown and their families

The first duty of Government is the defence of the realm. Our Armed Forces fulfil that responsibility on behalf of the Government, sacrificing some civilian freedoms, facing danger and, sometimes, suffering serious injury or death as a result of their duty. Families also play a vital role in supporting the operational effectiveness of our Armed Forces. In return, the whole nation has a moral obligation to the members of the Naval Service, the Army and the Royal Air Force, together with their families. They deserve our respect and support, and fair treatment.

Those who serve in the Armed Forces, whether Regular or Reserve, those who have served in the past, and their families, should face no disadvantage compared to other citizens in the provision of public and commercial services. Special consideration is appropriate in some cases, especially for those who have given most such as the injured and the bereaved.

This obligation involves the whole of society: it includes voluntary and charitable bodies, private organisations, and the actions of individuals in supporting the Armed Forces. Recognising those who have performed military duty unites the country and demonstrates the value of their contribution. This has no greater expression than in upholding this Covenant.

Section 1: Principles of the Armed Forces Corporate Covenant

1.1 We Shine Dental Practice will endeavour in our business dealings to uphold the key principles of the Armed Forces Covenant, which are:
- no member of the Armed Forces Community should face disadvantage in the provision of public and commercial services compared to any other citizen;
- and in some circumstances that special treatment may be appropriate especially for the injured or bereaved.
Section 2: Demonstrating our commitment

2.1 Shine Dental Practice recognises the value serving personnel, reservists, veterans and military families bring to our business. We will seek to uphold the principles of the Armed Forces Covenant, by pledging to the following:
- Armed Forces Friendly
- UK Service Spouses And Partners
- UK Reservists
- UK Cadets
- Armed Forces Day
- Discounts
2.2 We will publicise these commitments through our literature and/or on our website, setting out how we will seek to honour them and inviting feedback from the Service community and our customers on how we are doing.

Source: gov.uk (2025-08-31)

Find out if you need to report Pillar 2 Top-up Taxes in the UK (these are Domestic Top-up Tax and Multinational Top-up Tax).

Your group must use this service to register for Pillar 2 Top-up Taxes, if it has:
- at least one entity located in the UK
- consolidated group annual revenues of 750 million euros or more, in at least 2 of the previous 4 accounting periods
References to ‘groups’ within this service also include single entities.

You must register with the service if your group meets these criteria, even if you do not have to pay any top-up tax. You must register no later than 6 months after the end of the group’s first accounting period that met the criteria.

There are two Pillar 2 Top-up Taxes in the UK:

- Multinational Top-up Tax
If your group only has entities located in the UK, you must register to report for Domestic Top-up Tax.

If your group has entities located both inside and outside the UK, you must register to report for both Pillar 2 Top-up Taxes.

Pillar 2 Top-up Taxes operate at a group level. Only one filing member must register on behalf of all group members for both taxes.

Bus routes not included in the fare cap

Participation in the bus fare cap scheme is voluntary and some bus companies have chosen not to take part. If your local company is not included in the list, they may have other types of tickets that are suitable for your needs.

Some types of routes are not covered by this scheme so they are not included, for example, coach services, school-only services or airport services.

Fares are capped locally in London (https://tfl.gov.uk/fares/find-fares/bus-and-tram-fares), so it is not included in this scheme.

Routes listed as ‘not included’ in the national £3 fare cap may still offer a discounted fare as part of a locally run initiative.

Funding and service numbers

The lists of services include routes tendered or operated by local councils, including those supported by the Rural Mobility Fund.

Local authorities and metro mayors may also fund their own schemes to reduce fares lower than £3.

There may be more than one service with the same number in an area. For ease of understanding, these duplicate service numbers are not listed on this page. See the bus company websites for full service details.

Reporting fraudulent activity

If you think that someone is committing fraud, theft or corruption related to the bus fare cap you can report it by:

- emailing xxx@xxx.xx (mailto:xxx@xxx.xx)

Maureen has been based in the UK for most of her working life, and has been resident here for tax purposes. On holiday in Bali in the summer of 2013 she meets Maurice, who lives and works in the United Arab Emirates.

Some 12 months later, they marry. Maureen resigns from her job and moves out of her home on 24 September 2014. She spends the nights of 24 and 25 September in a hotel and flies out to the UAE to live with Maurice on 26 September 2014. She has no close family in the UK and does not return to the UK in the remainder of the tax year. She does not take up any employment in the UAE. Maurice and Maureen plan to live in the UAE for at least another 5 years.

Maureen will receive split year treatment for 2014-2015 as she meets the Case 3 conditions:
- she was UK resident for 2013-2014
- she is non-UK resident for 2015-2016
- from 24 September 2014 until 5 April 2015 she has no home in the UK and spends fewer than 16 days in the UK
- she had established her only home is in the UAE within 6 months
For Maureen, the overseas part of the tax year will start on 24 September 2014, the day she no longer had a home in the UK.

The overseas part of the tax year is the period which starts on the date in the tax year when the individual ceases to have a home in the UK until the end of the tax year.

This publication reports information from the CSDS. This is a patient-level dataset providing information relating to NHS-funded community services. These services can include health centres, schools and mental health trusts. The data collected includes personal and demographic information, diagnoses including long-term conditions and childhood disabilities and care events plus screening activities. Statistics are published as experimental and data is shown at provider level and at a national/all submitters level also.

This is a monthly report on publicly funded community services for children, young people and adults using data from the Community Services Data Set (CSDS) reported in England. The CSDS is a patient-level dataset and has been developed to help achieve better outcomes for children, young people and adults. It provides data that will be used to commission services in a way that improves health, reduces inequalities, and supports service improvement and clinical quality. These services can include NHS Trusts, health centres, schools, mental health trusts, and local authorities. The data collected in CSDS includes personal and demographic information, diagnoses including long-term conditions and disabilities and care events plus screening activities. These statistics are classified as experimental and should be used with caution. Experimental statistics are new official statistics undergoing evaluation. They are published in order to involve users and stakeholders in their development and as a means to build in quality at an early stage. More information about experimental statistics can be found on the UK Statistics Authority website. We hope this information is helpful and would be grateful if you could spare a couple of minutes to complete a short customer satisfaction survey.

If the authorised officer for Sch36, FA08 or an SO-grade manager for s118BA, CEMA considers it essential to seek production of documents beyond those described at CH227220 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook/ch227220) (including, for example, paying-in slips, waste records, paid cheques, the bank’s correspondence file, or confidential information about credit-worthiness etc) a submission should be made to the specialist technical team (This content has been withheld because of exemptions in the Freedom of Information Act 2000) (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook/ch910000). You should provide with your report a draft schedule of documents sought.

Banks file paid cheques in date order. Finding individual cheques is therefore labour-intensive and you need to be very selective in requesting paid cheques. If such documents are required, the opportunity letter is normally issued by the Assistant Director in the specialist technical team.

The exceptions to this are those issued by Fraud Investigation Service (FIS), Wealthy, Counter Avoidance (C-A), Large Business (LB) and Treaty Competent Authorities, who all have their own arrangements for approving and issuing opportunity letters in these circumstances.
IFM22100 - Real Estate Investment Trust : Conditions and tests: maximum shareholding: CTA2010/S551- S554A
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-17)


Background

One aim of the UK-REIT rules is to move the point of taxation from the investment vehicle to individual investors. To achieve this PIDs are normally paid under deduction of withholding tax (except where paid to certain investors who are to be paid gross - see IFM28125 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/investment-funds/ifm28125)) and taxed as income from property in the investor’s hands.

Double Taxation Agreements (DTAs) often allow shareholders holding 10% or more of the capital of a company beneficial treaty rates of tax on dividends. Where there are no specific provisions for distributions from REITs in those DTA's, this means that certain shareholders holding 10% or more of the capital of a UK REIT may be able to reclaim all or a large proportion of the UK withholding tax on PIDs.

The ‘holder of excessive rights’ (HoERs) rules (CTA2010/s551- S554A) counter this risk of reduced (or no) tax being paid on a PID by imposing a tax charge on a UK- REIT if it makes a distribution to a holder of excessive rights that is not an “excluded holder” (see IFM22105 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/investment-funds/ifm22105)). These rules encourage REIT's to ensure that distributions are not made to HoERs. Certain reasonable steps can be taken to avoid this charge (see IFM22125 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/investment-funds/ifm22125) to IFM22150 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/investment-funds/ifm22150)).

We, the undersigned, commit to honour the Armed Forces Covenant and support the Armed Forces Community. We recognise the value Serving Personnel, both Regular and Reservists, Veterans and military families contribute to our business and our country.

The Armed Forces Covenant

An enduring covenant between the people of the United Kingdom, Her Majesty’s Government and all those who serve or have served in the Armed Forces of the Crown and their families

The first duty of Government is the defence of the realm. Our Armed Forces fulfil that responsibility on behalf of the Government, sacrificing some civilian freedoms, facing danger and, sometimes, suffering serious injury or death as a result of their duty. Families also play a vital role in supporting the operational effectiveness of our Armed Forces. In return, the whole nation has a moral obligation to the members of the Naval Service, the Army and the Royal Air Force, together with their families. They deserve our respect and support, and fair treatment.

Those who serve in the Armed Forces, whether Regular or Reserve, those who have served in the past, and their families, should face no disadvantage compared to other citizens in the provision of public and commercial services. Special consideration is appropriate in some cases, especially for those who have given most such as the injured and the bereaved.

This obligation involves the whole of society: it includes voluntary and charitable bodies, private organisations, and the actions of individuals in supporting the Armed Forces. Recognising those who have performed military duty unites the country and demonstrates the value of their contribution. This has no greater expression than in upholding this Covenant.

Section 1: Principles of the Armed Forces Corporate Covenant

1.1 We Kirkside Bar (Do Not Contact) will endeavour in our business dealings to uphold the key principles of the Armed Forces Covenant, which are:
- no member of the Armed Forces Community should face disadvantage in the provision of public and commercial services compared to any other citizen;
- and in some circumstances that special treatment may be appropriate especially for the injured or bereaved.
Section 2: Demonstrating our commitment

2.1 Kirkside Bar (Do Not Contact) recognises the value serving personnel, reservists, veterans and military families bring to our business. We will seek to uphold the principles of the Armed Forces Covenant, by pledging to the following:
- Armed Forces Friendly

- UK Service Spouses And Partners
- Flexible Leave For Spouses
- UK Reservists
- UK Cadets
- Armed Forces Day
- Reserve Forces Day
2.2 We will publicise these commitments through our literature and/or on our website, setting out how we will seek to honour them and inviting feedback from the Service community and our customers on how we are doing.
