ProACT Sam discusses how UK Expat’s tax is affected by Brexit. Double Taxation Treaties are not impacted, however, there are likely to be changes moving forwards, with some positive impacts and some negative impacts.

ProACT Sam explains how Expat taxation is not directly impacted by Brexit, but that this could be subject to change and a key area therefore, for Expats to monitor and take action on.

The GESY registration system was changed at the end of July, without notice.

ProACT Sam Says we know how to help Expats with Pensions Living and Working Abroad. 

The new 2018 Cyprus Double Taxation (DT) Treaty came into force on 1st January 2019 and from April 2019 -

• UK Expats Living Abroad in Cyprus as Tax Residents with UK Public Service Pensions are taxed PAYE in the UK. 

• CY Expats Living Abroad in UK as Tax Residents with Cyprus Public Service Pensions are taxed at source in Cyprus. 

Depending upon your income UK Expats in Cyprus could start paying UK tax at source from April 2019 at 20% or 45%. 

ProACT Sam answers your expat questions.

ProACT Sam Orgill Highlights the steps Expats should consider taking to secure their future Living and Working Abroad.

Have you ever tried to agree a sabbatical from work or school, to find yourself embroiled in a negotiation and conditions? That you have to use holiday pay, or forgo pay, that you must evidence the reasons for the absence? 

Or have you ever tried to change your working hours, gain some flexibility, to have conditions applied to your reasonable request made with best intention?

ProACT Sam says that the apparent breakthrough in withdrawal treaty negotiations can give Expats extra confidence, but that we already had certainties of the changes ahead for Expat business and individuals.

After the Brexit vote the UK GBP v EURO fell from as high as Euro 1.30 to GBP £1.00 to around Euro 1.11

As with many things in Brexit we hear constant reports of currency falling or rising. 

As our report showed last year , for all the ups and down, Pound Sterling as a currency has been around 1.11 for the last two years.  

So this weekends news that after all the politicking , all the PR from vested interests, all the lobbying , a withdrawal treaty is suddenly agreed between the EU and UK negotiators, has an immediate impact on currency.

Straight away we see this happening, a jump in the EURO:GBP Rate to Euro1.13 to £1.00. No surprise.
