Split Year Treatment

« Back to Glossary Index

Split Year Treatment is a set of rules that allow your UK tax year to be split into a ‘resident’ part and a ‘non-resident’ part when you move into or out of the UK. This means you’re only taxed as a UK resident for the relevant part of the year, making it fairer for people relocating in or out mid-year. The rules are detailed, so check your situation if you’ve moved countries.
