Non-Domicile Tax Valuation

What is Non-Domicile Tax Valuation?

Non-domiciles who wish to sell or rent out a Canterbury house – or any property in the UK – are subject to different regulations. Depending on your circumstances, you may not be required to pay some taxes. The earnings from the sale of your property may be subject to taxation in your home country. The only way to determine which apply to you, how much you must pay, and how to lawfully sell or otherwise dispose of your Canterbury property is to obtain a non-domicile tax assessment. An accurate market value is necessary if you wish to sell your Canterbury house while you reside abroad. Additionally, you must pay taxes on the sale's earnings, and if you want to lease, you may require a rental income assessment.

Our panel of RICS accredited valuers can accurately assess your property, inform you of your tax responsibilities, and assist you in avoiding potentially expensive conflicts.

Benefits of Non-Domicile Tax Valuation

You can accomplish the following using non-resident tax valuations: • Obtain an accurate property value: a new, independent market appraisal can help you determine the appropriate asking price for your house. • Reduce your tax bill: determine whether exemptions and reliefs apply to you in order to lower your tax payment and save money. • Prevent legal issues: remain compliant by having our team of RICS accredited valuers provide you with an accurate assessment of your property and a clear picture of your tax liability. • Sell your property without returning home: unless it is absolutely necessary, you do not need to travel back to the UK to sell or lease your Canterbury property.

If I'm not a resident, do I still have to pay property taxes?

When renting or selling a Canterbury property, non-domiciles from the UK used to not have to worry about tax laws, but this all changed with the April 2015 budget statement. These days, you'll probably be required to pay taxes on any income that passes through the UK, including when you transfer money from overseas into a UK bank account.

If you have previously used the remittance basis, generated a profit, and your taxable income piles up, be ready to get a bill for capital gains tax. All prospective homebuyers should be aware that the tax regulations in the UK may be quite complicated. However, our panel of RICS accredited valuers can assist you by providing a reliable report to your legal advisers, allowing you to focus on what you do best—make informed business choices.
