Planning Your Return to the UK

Download our Repatriation Guide for British Expats

Returning to the UK after time spent living abroad involves more than just booking a flight home. Whether you’ve been away for one year or twenty, repatriation can come with a series of financial, legal, and logistical challenges. That’s why we’ve created this comprehensive Repatriation Guide — designed to help British expats prepare for a smooth, structured transition back to UK life.

What’s Inside

  • Tax, Residency & Domicile
    Understand how HMRC determines your UK residency and domicile status — and how it affects your income tax and inheritance tax obligations.

  • Timing Your Move Wisely
    Learn why moving back after April 6th might be tax-efficient and what to consider if you’re holding UK or overseas assets.

  • Pensions & Retirement
    Know what happens to your QROPS or SIPP when you return, and how to make withdrawals in a tax-efficient manner.

  • International Transfers & Currency Exchange
    Discover how to move your money back to the UK securely, avoid excessive FX fees, and manage timing to protect your funds from currency swings.

  • Property & Mortgages
    Navigate proof-of-funds requirements, letting references, and the challenges of getting a mortgage when you’ve been out of the UK for years.

  • Capital Gains, IHT & Portfolio Bonds
    Explore options to manage capital gains, understand deemed gains on bonds, and protect your estate from unnecessary IHT exposure.

  • Practical Planning Essentials
    From National Insurance contributions to updating your Will and arranging home insurance — this guide covers the full checklist.
