SCHEDULE 45Statutory residence test

This schedule has no associated Explanatory Notes

PART 1The rules

Introduction

1(1)This Part of this Schedule sets out the rules for determining for the purposes of relevant tax whether individuals are resident or not resident in the UK.

(2)The rules are referred to collectively as “the statutory residence test”.

(3)The rules do not apply in determining for the purposes of relevant tax whether individuals are resident or not resident in England, Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland specifically (rather than in the UK as a whole).

(4)Relevant tax” means—

(a)income tax,

(b)capital gains tax, and

(c)(so far as the residence status of individuals is relevant to them) inheritance tax and corporation tax.

(5)Key concepts used in the rules are defined in Part 2 of this Schedule.

Interpretation of enactments

2(1)In enactments relating to relevant tax, a reference to being resident (or not resident) in the UK is, in the case of individuals, a reference to being resident (or not resident) in the UK in accordance with the statutory residence test.

(2)Sub-paragraph (1) applies even if the reference relates to the tax liability of an actual or deemed person that is not an individual (for example, where the liability of another person depends on the residence status of an individual).

(3)An individual who, in accordance with the statutory residence test, is resident (or not resident) in the UK “for” a tax year is taken for the purposes of any enactment relating to relevant tax to be resident (or not resident) there at all times in that tax year.

(4)But see Part 3 of this Schedule (split year treatment) for cases where the effect of sub-paragraph (3) is relaxed in certain circumstances.

(5)This Schedule has effect subject to any express provision to the contrary in (or falling to be recognised and acknowledged in law by virtue of) any enactment.

The basic rule

3An individual (“P”) is resident in the UK for a tax year (“year X”) if—

(a)the automatic residence test is met for that year, or

(b)the sufficient ties test is met for that year.

4If neither of those tests is met for that year, P is not resident in the UK for that year.

The automatic residence test

5The automatic residence test is met for year X if P meets—

(a)at least one of the automatic UK tests, and

(b)none of the automatic overseas tests.

The automatic UK tests

6There are 4 automatic UK tests.

7The first automatic UK test is that P spends at least 183 days in the UK in year X.

8(1)The second automatic UK test is that—

(a)P has a home in the UK during all or part of year X,

(b)that home is one where P spends a sufficient amount of time in year X, and

(c)there is at least one period of 91 (consecutive) days in respect of which the following conditions are met—

(i)the 91-day period in question occurs while P has that home,

(ii)at least 30 days of that 91-day period fall within year X, and

(iii)throughout that 91-day period, condition A or condition B is met or a combination of those conditions is met.

(2)Condition A is that P has no home overseas.

(3)Condition B is that—

(a)P has one or more homes overseas, but

(b)each of those homes is a home where P spends no more than a permitted amount of time in year X.

(4)In relation to a home of P’s in the UK, P “spends a sufficient amount of time” there in year X if there are at least 30 days in year X when P is present there on that day for at least some of the time (no matter how short a time).

(5)In relation to a home of P’s overseas, P “spends no more than a permitted amount of time” there in year X if there are fewer than 30 days in year X when P is present there on that day for at least some of the time (no matter how short a time).

(6)In sub-paragraphs (4) and (5)—

(a)a reference to 30 days is to 30 days in aggregate, whether the days are consecutive or intermittent, and

(b)a reference to P being present at the home is to P being present there at a time when it is a home of P’s (so presence there on any other occasion, for example to look round the property with a view to buying it, is to be disregarded).

(7)Sub-paragraph (1)(c) is satisfied so long as there is a period of 91 days in respect of which the conditions described there are met, even if those conditions are in fact met for longer than that.

(8)If P has more than one home in the UK—

(a)each of those homes must be looked at separately to see if the second automatic UK test is met, and

(b)the second automatic UK test is then met so long as it is met in relation to at least one of those homes.

9(1)The third automatic UK test is that—

(a)P works sufficient hours in the UK, as assessed over a period of 365 days,

(b)during that period, there are no significant breaks from UK work,

(c)all or part of that period falls within year X,

(d)more than 75% of the total number of days in the 365-day period on which P does more than 3 hours’ work are days on which P does more than 3 hours’ work in the UK, and

(e)at least one day which falls in both that period and year X is a day on which P does more than 3 hours’ work in the UK.

(2)Take the following steps to work out, for any given period of 365 days, whether P works “sufficient hours in the UK” as assessed over that period—

  • Step 1

    Identify any days in the period on which P does more than 3 hours’ work overseas, including ones on which P also does work in the UK on the same day.

    The days so identified are referred to as “disregarded days”.

  • Step 2

    Add up (for all employments held and trades carried on by P) the total number of hours that P works in the UK during the period, but ignoring any hours that P works in the UK on disregarded days.

    The result is referred to as P’s “net UK hours”.

  • Step 3

    Subtract from 365—

    (a)

    the total number of disregarded days, and

    (b)

    any days that are allowed to be subtracted, in accordance with the rules in paragraph 28 of this Schedule, to take account of periods of leave and gaps between employments.

    The result is referred to as the “reference period”.

  • Step 4

    Divide the reference period by 7. If the answer is more than 1 and is not a whole number, round down to the nearest whole number. If the answer is less than 1, round up to 1.

  • Step 5

    Divide P’s net UK hours by the number resulting from step 4.

    If the answer is 35 or more, P is considered to work “sufficient hours in the UK” as assessed over the 365-day period in question.

(3)This paragraph does not apply to P if—

(a)P has a relevant job on board a vehicle, aircraft or ship at any time in year X, and

(b)at least 6 of the trips that P makes in year X as part of that job are cross-border trips that either begin in the UK, end in the UK or begin and end in the UK.

10(1)The fourth automatic UK test is that—

(a)P dies in year X,

(b)for each of the previous 3 tax years, P was resident in the UK by virtue of meeting the automatic residence test,

(c)even assuming P were not resident in the UK for year X, the tax year preceding year X would not be a split year as respects P (see Part 3 of this Schedule),

(d)when P died, either—

(i)P’s home was in the UK, or

(ii)P had more than one home and at least one of them was in the UK, and

(e)if P had a home overseas during all or part of year X, P did not spend a sufficient amount of time there in year X.

(2)In relation to a home of P’s overseas, P “spent a sufficient amount of time” there in year X if—

(a)there were at least 30 days in year X when P was present there on that day for at least some of the time (no matter how short a time), or

(b)P was present there for at least some of the time (no matter how short a time) on each day of year X up to and including the day on which P died.

(3)In sub-paragraph (2)—

(a)the reference to 30 days is to 30 days in aggregate, whether the days were consecutive or intermittent, and

(b)the reference to P being present at the home is to P being present there at a time when it was a home of P’s.

(4)If P had more than one home overseas—

(a)each of those homes must be looked at separately to see if the requirement of sub-paragraph (1)(e) is met, and

(b)that requirement is then met so long as it is met in relation to each of them.

The automatic overseas tests

11There are 5 automatic overseas tests.

12The first automatic overseas test is that—

(a)P was resident in the UK for one or more of the 3 tax years preceding year X,

(b)the number of days in year X that P spends in the UK is less than 16, and

(c)P does not die in year X.

13The second automatic overseas test is that—

(a)P was resident in the UK for none of the 3 tax years preceding year X, and

(b)the number of days that P spends in the UK in year X is less than 46.

14(1)The third automatic overseas test is that—

(a)P works sufficient hours overseas, as assessed over year X,

(b)during year X, there are no significant breaks from overseas work,

(c)the number of days in year X on which P does more than 3 hours’ work in the UK is less than 31, and

(d)the number of days in year X falling within sub-paragraph (2) is less than 91.

(2)A day falls within this sub-paragraph if—

(a)it is a day spent by P in the UK, but

(b)it is not a day that is treated under paragraph 23(4) as a day spent by P in the UK.

(3)Take the following steps to work out whether P works “sufficient hours overseas” as assessed over year X—

  • Step 1

    Identify any days in year X on which P does more than 3 hours’ work in the UK, including ones on which P also does work overseas on the same day.

    The days so identified are referred to as “disregarded days”.

  • Step 2

    Add up (for all employments held and trades carried on by P) the total number of hours that P works overseas in year X, but ignoring any hours that P works overseas on disregarded days.

    The result is referred to as P’s “net overseas hours”.

  • Step 3

    Subtract from 365 (or 366 if year X includes 29 February)—

    (a)

    the total number of disregarded days, and

    (b)

    any days that are allowed to be subtracted, in accordance with the rules in paragraph 28 of this Schedule, to take account of periods of leave and gaps between employments.

    The result is referred to as the “reference period”.

  • Step 4

    Divide the reference period by 7. If the answer is more than 1 and is not a whole number, round down to the nearest whole number. If the answer is less than 1, round up to 1.

  • Step 5

    Divide P’s net overseas hours by the number resulting from step 4.

    If the answer is 35 or more, P is considered to work “sufficient hours overseas” as assessed over year X.

(4)This paragraph does not apply to P if—

(a)P has a relevant job on board a vehicle, aircraft or ship at any time in year X, and

(b)at least 6 of the trips that P makes in year X as part of that job are cross-border trips that either begin in the UK, end in the UK or begin and end in the UK.

15(1)The fourth automatic overseas test is that—

(a)P dies in year X,

(b)P was resident in the UK for neither of the 2 tax years preceding year X or, alternatively, P’s case falls within sub-paragraph (2), and

(c)the number of days that P spends in the UK in year X is less than 46.

(2)P’s case falls within this sub-paragraph if—

(a)P was not resident in the UK for the tax year preceding year X, and

(b)the tax year before that was a split year as respects P because the circumstances of the case fell within Case 1, Case 2 or Case 3 (see Part 3 of this Schedule).

16(1)The fifth automatic overseas test is that—

(a)P dies in year X,

(b)P was resident in the UK for neither of the 2 tax years preceding year X because P met the third automatic overseas test for each of those years or, alternatively, P’s case falls within sub-paragraph (2), and

(c)P would meet the third automatic overseas test for year X if paragraph 14 were read with the relevant modifications.

(2)P’s case falls within this sub-paragraph if—

(a)P was not resident in the UK for the tax year preceding year X because P met the third automatic overseas test for that year, and

(b)the tax year before that was a split year as respects P because the circumstances of the case fell within Case 1 (see Part 3 of this Schedule).

(3)The relevant modifications of paragraph 14 are—

(a)in sub-paragraph (1)(a) and (b) and sub-paragraph (3), for “year X” read “the period from the start of year X up to and including the day before the day of P’s death”, and

(b)in step 3 of sub-paragraph (3), for “365 (or 366 if year X includes 29 February)” read “the number of days in the period from the start of year X up to and including the day before the day of P’s death”.

The sufficient ties test

17(1)The sufficient ties test is met for year X if—

(a)P meets none of the automatic UK tests and none of the automatic overseas tests, but

(b)P has sufficient UK ties for that year.

(2)“UK ties” is defined in Part 2 of this Schedule.

(3)Whether P has “sufficient” UK ties for year X will depend on—

(a)whether P was resident in the UK for any of the previous 3 tax years, and

(b)the number of days that P spends in the UK in year X.

(4)The Tables in paragraphs 18 and 19 show how many ties are sufficient in each case.

Sufficient UK ties

18The Table below shows how many UK ties are sufficient in a case where P was resident in the UK for one or more of the 3 tax years preceding year X—

Days spent by P in the UK in year XNumber of ties that are sufficient
More than 15 but not more than 45At least 4
More than 45 but not more than 90At least 3
More than 90 but not more than 120At least 2
More than 120At least 1

19The Table below shows how many UK ties are sufficient in a case where P was resident in the UK for none of the 3 tax years preceding year X—

Days spent by P in the UK in year XNumber of ties that are sufficient
More than 45 but not more than 90All 4
More than 90 but not more than 120At least 3
More than 120At least 2

20(1)If P dies in year X, paragraph 18 has effect as if the words “More than 15 but” were omitted from the first column of the Table.

(2)In addition to that modification, if the death occurs before 1 March in year X, paragraphs 18 and 19 have effect as if each number of days mentioned in the first column of the Table were reduced by the appropriate number.

(3)The appropriate number is found by multiplying the number of days, in each case, by—

where “A” is the number of whole months in year X after the month in which P dies.

(4)If, for any number of days, the appropriate number is not a whole number, the appropriate number is to be rounded up or down as follows—

(a)if the first figure after the decimal point is 5 or more, round the appropriate number up to the nearest whole number,

(b)otherwise, round it down to the nearest whole number.

PART 2Key concepts

Introduction

21This Part of this Schedule defines some key concepts for the purposes of this Schedule.

Days spent

22(1)If P is present in the UK at the end of a day, that day counts as a day spent by P in the UK.

(2)But it does not do so in the following two cases.

(3)The first case is where—

(a)P only arrives in the UK as a passenger on that day,

(b)P leaves the UK the next day, and

(c)between arrival and departure, P does not engage in activities that are to a substantial extent unrelated to P’s passage through the UK.

(4)The second case is where—

(a)P would not be present in the UK at the end of that day but for exceptional circumstances beyond P’s control that prevent P from leaving the UK, and

(b)P intends to leave the UK as soon as those circumstances permit.

(5)Examples of circumstances that may be “exceptional” are—

(a)national or local emergencies such as war, civil unrest or natural disasters, and

(b)a sudden or life-threatening illness or injury.

(6)For a tax year—

(a)the maximum number of days to which sub-paragraph (2) may apply in reliance on sub-paragraph (4) is limited to 60, and

(b)accordingly, once the number of days within sub-paragraph (4) reaches 60 (counting forward from the start of the tax year), any subsequent days within that sub-paragraph, whether involving the same or different exceptional circumstances, will count as days spent by P in the UK.

23(1)If P is not present in the UK at the end of a day, that day does not count as a day spent by P in the UK.

(2)This is subject to the deeming rule.

(3)The deeming rule applies if—

(a)P has at least 3 UK ties for a tax year,

(b)the number of days in that tax year when P is present in the UK at some point in the day but not at the end of the day (“qualifying days”) is more than 30, and

(c)P was resident in the UK for at least one of the 3 tax years preceding that tax year.

(4)The deeming rule is that, once the number of qualifying days in the tax year reaches 30 (counting forward from the start of the tax year), each subsequent qualifying day in the tax year is to be treated as a day spent by P in the UK.

(5)The deeming rule does not apply for the purposes of sub-paragraph (3)(a) (so, in deciding for those purposes whether P has a 90-day tie, qualifying days in excess of 30 are not to be treated as days spent by P in the UK).

Days spent “in” a period

24Any reference to a number of days spent in the UK “in” a given period is a reference to the total number of days spent there (in aggregate) in that period, whether continuously or intermittently.

Home

25(1)A person’s home could be a building or part of a building or, for example, a vehicle, vessel or structure of any kind.

(2)Whether, for a given building, vehicle, vessel, structure or the like, there is a sufficient degree of permanence or stability about P’s arrangements there for the place to count as P’s home (or one of P’s homes) will depend on all the circumstances of the case.

(3)But somewhere that P uses periodically as nothing more than a holiday home or temporary retreat (or something similar) does not count as a home of P’s.

(4)A place may count as a home of P’s whether or not P holds any estate or interest in it (and references to “having” a home are to be read accordingly).

(5)Somewhere that was P’s home does not continue to count as such merely because P continues to hold an estate or interest in it after P has moved out (for example, if P is in the process of selling it or has let or sub-let it, having set up home elsewhere).

Work

26(1)P is considered to be “working” (or doing “work”) at any time when P is doing something—

(a)in the performance of duties of an employment held by P, or

(b)in the course of a trade carried on by P (alone or in partnership).

(2)In deciding whether something is being done in the performance of duties of an employment, regard must be had to whether, if value were received by P for doing the thing, it would fall within the definition of employment income in section 7 of ITEPA 2003.

(3)In deciding whether something is being done in the course of a trade, regard must be had to whether, if expenses were incurred by P in doing the thing, the expenses could be deducted in calculating the profits of the trade for income tax purposes.

(4)Time spent travelling counts as time spent working—

(a)if the cost of the journey could, if it were incurred by P, be deducted in calculating P’s earnings from that employment under section 337, 338, 340 or 342 of ITEPA 2003 or, as the case may be, in calculating the profits of the trade under ITTOIA 2005, or

(b)to the extent that P does something else during the journey that would itself count as work in accordance with this paragraph.

(5)Time spent undertaking training counts as time spent working if—

(a)in the case of an employment held by P, the training is provided or paid for by the employer and is undertaken to help P in performing duties of the employment, and

(b)in the case of a trade carried on by P, the cost of the training could be deducted in calculating the profits of the trade for income tax purposes.

(6)Sub-paragraphs (4) and (5) have effect without prejudice to the generality of sub-paragraphs (2) and (3).

(7)Assume for the purposes of sub-paragraphs (2) to (5) that P is someone who is chargeable to income tax under ITEPA 2003 or ITTOIA 2005.

(8)A voluntary post for which P has no contract of service does not count as an employment for the purposes of this Schedule.

Location of work

27(1)Work is done where it is actually done, regardless of where the employment is held or the trade is carried on by P.

(2)But work done by way of or in the course of travelling to or from the UK by air or sea or via a tunnel under the sea is assumed to be done overseas even during the part of the journey in or over the UK.

(3)For these purposes, travelling to or from the UK is taken to—

(a)begin when P boards the aircraft, ship or train that is bound for a destination in the UK or (as the case may be) overseas, and

(b)end when P disembarks from that aircraft, ship or train.

(4)This paragraph is subject to express provisions in this Schedule about the location of work done by people with relevant jobs on board vehicles, aircraft or ships.

Rules for calculating the reference period

28(1)This paragraph applies in calculating the “reference period” (which is a step taken in determining whether P works “sufficient hours in the UK” or “sufficient hours overseas” as assessed over a given period of days).

(2)The number of days in the given period may be reduced to take account of—

(a)reasonable amounts of annual leave or parenting leave taken by P during the period (for all employments held and trades carried on by P during the period, whether in the UK or overseas),

(b)absences from work at times during the period when P is on sick leave and cannot reasonably be expected to work as a result of the illness or injury in question, and

(c)non-working days embedded within a block of leave for which a reduction is made under paragraph (a) or (b).

(3)But no reduction may be made in respect of any day that is a “disregarded day” (see paragraphs 9(2) and 14(3) in Part 1 of this Schedule).

(4)For any particular employment or trade, “reasonable” amounts of annual leave or parenting leave are to be assessed having regard to (among other things)—

(a)the nature of the work, and

(b)the country or countries where P is working.

(5)Non-working days are “embedded within” a block of leave only if there are, as part of that block of leave—

(a)at least 3 consecutive days of leave taken before the non-working day or series of non-working days in question, and

(b)at least 3 consecutive days of leave taken after the non-working day or series of non-working days in question.

(6)A “non-working day” is any day of the week, month or year on which P—

(a)is not normally expected to work (according to P’s contract of employment or usual pattern of work), and

(b)does not in fact work.

(7)In calculating the reductions to be made under sub-paragraph (2)—

(a)if it turns out, after applying sub-paragraph (3), that the reasonable amounts of annual leave or parenting leave or, as the case may be, the absences from work on sick leave do not add up (across the period) to a whole number of days, the number in that case is to be rounded down to the nearest whole number, but

(b)any such rounding is to be ignored for the purposes of sub-paragraph (2)(c).

(8)If—

(a)P changes employment during the given period,

(b)there is a gap between the two employments, and

(c)P does not work at all at any time between the two employments,

the number of days in the given period may be reduced by the number of days in that gap.

(9)But—

(a)if the gap lasts for more than 15 days, only 15 days may be subtracted, and

(b)if there is more than one change of employment during the period, the maximum number of days that may be subtracted under sub-paragraph (8) for all the gaps in total is 30.

Significant breaks from UK or overseas work

29(1)There is a “significant break from UK work” if at least 31 days go by and not one of those days is—

(a)a day on which P does more than 3 hours’ work in the UK, or

(b)a day on which P would have done more than 3 hours’ work in the UK but for being on annual leave, sick leave or parenting leave.

(2)There is a “significant break from overseas work” if at least 31 days go by and not one of those days is—

(a)a day on which P does more than 3 hours’ work overseas, or

(b)a day on which P would have done more than 3 hours’ work overseas but for being on annual leave, sick leave or parenting leave.

Relevant jobs on board vehicles, aircraft or ships

30(1)P has a “relevant” job on board a vehicle, aircraft or ship if condition A and condition B are met.

(2)Condition A is that P either—

(a)holds an employment, the duties of which consist of duties to be performed on board a vehicle, aircraft or ship while it is travelling, or

(b)carries on a trade, the activities of which consist of work to be done or services to be provided on board a vehicle, aircraft or ship while it is travelling.

(3)Condition B is that substantially all of the trips made in performing those duties or carrying on those activities are ones that involve crossing an international boundary at sea, in the air or on land (referred to as “cross-border trips”).

(4)Sub-paragraph (2)(b) is not satisfied unless, in order to do the work or provide the services, P has to be present (in person) on board the vehicle, aircraft or ship while it is travelling.

(5)Duties or activities of a purely incidental nature are to be ignored in deciding whether the duties of an employment or the activities of a trade consist of duties or activities of a kind described in sub-paragraph (2)(a) or (b).

UK ties

31(1)What counts as a “UK tie” depends on whether P was resident in the UK for one or more of the 3 tax years preceding year X.

(2)If P was resident in the UK for one or more of those 3 tax years, each of the following types of tie counts as a UK tie—

(a)a family tie,

(b)an accommodation tie,

(c)a work tie,

(d)a 90-day tie, and

(e)a country tie.

(3)Otherwise, each of the following types of tie counts as a UK tie—

(a)a family tie,

(b)an accommodation tie,

(c)a work tie, and

(d)a 90-day tie.

(4)In order to have the requisite number of UK ties for year X, each tie of P’s must be of a different type.

Family tie

32(1)P has a family tie for year X if—

(a)in year X, a relevant relationship exists at any time between P and another person, and

(b)that other person is someone who is resident in the UK for year X.

(2)A relevant relationship exists at any time between P and another person if at the time—

(a)P and the other person are husband and wife or civil partners and, in either case, are not separated,

(b)P and the other person are living together as husband and wife or, if they are of the same sex, as if they were civil partners, or

(c)the other person is a child of P’s and is under the age of 18.

(3)P does not have a family tie for year X by virtue of sub-paragraph (2)(c) if P sees the child in the UK on fewer than 61 days (in total) in—

(a)year X, or

(b)if the child turns 18 during year X, the part of year X before the day on which the child turns 18.

(4)A day counts as a day on which P sees the child if P sees the child in person for all or part of the day.

(5)Separated” means separated—

(a)under an order of a court of competent jurisdiction,

(b)by deed of separation, or

(c)in circumstances where the separation is likely to be permanent.

33(1)This paragraph applies in deciding for the purposes (only) of paragraph 32(1)(b) whether a person with whom P has a relevant relationship (a “family member”) is someone who is resident in the UK for year X.

(2)A family tie based on the fact that a family member has, by the same token, a relevant relationship with P is to be disregarded in deciding whether that family member is someone who is resident in the UK for year X.

(3)A family member falling within sub-paragraph (4) is to be treated as being not resident in the UK for year X if the number of days that he or she spends in the UK in the part of year X outside term-time is less than 21.

(4)A family member falls within this sub-paragraph if he or she—

(a)is a child of P’s who is under the age of 18,

(b)is in full-time education in the UK at any time in year X, and

(c)is resident in the UK for year X but would not be so resident if the time spent in full-time education in the UK in that year were disregarded.

(5)In sub-paragraph (4)—

(a)references to full-time education in the UK are to full-time education at a university, college, school or other educational establishment in the UK, and

(b)the reference to the time spent in full-time education in the UK is to the time spent there during term-time.

(6)For the purposes of this paragraph, half-term breaks and other breaks when teaching is not provided during a term are considered to form part of “term-time”.

Accommodation tie

34(1)P has an accommodation tie for year X if—

(a)P has a place to live in the UK,

(b)that place is available to P during year X for a continuous period of at least 91 days, and

(c)P spends at least one night at that place in that year.

(2)If there is a gap of fewer than 16 days between periods in year X when a particular place is available to P, that place is to be treated as continuing to be available to P during the gap.

(3)P is considered to have a “place to live” in the UK if—

(a)P’s home or at least one of P’s homes (if P has more than one) is in the UK, or

(b)P has a holiday home or temporary retreat (or something similar) in the UK, or

(c)accommodation is otherwise available to P where P can live when P is in the UK.

(4)Accommodation may be “available” to P even if P holds no estate or interest in it and even if P has no legal right to occupy it.

(5)If the accommodation is the home of a close relative of P’s, sub-paragraph (1)(c) has effect as if for “at least one night” there were substituted “a total of at least 16 nights”.

(6)A “close relative” is—

(a)a parent or grandparent,

(b)a brother or sister,

(c)a child aged 18 or over, or

(d)a grandchild aged 18 or over,

in each case, including by half-blood or by marriage or civil partnership.

Work tie

35(1)P has a work tie for year X if P works in the UK for at least 40 days (whether continuously or intermittently) in year X.

(2)For these purposes, P works in the UK for a day if P does more than 3 hours’ work in the UK on that day.

36(1)This paragraph applies for the purposes of paragraph 35.

(2)It applies in cases where P has a relevant job on board a vehicle, aircraft or ship.

(3)When making a cross-border trip as part of that job—

(a)if the trip begins in the UK, P is assumed to do more than 3 hours’ work in the UK on the day on which it begins,

(b)if the trip ends in the UK, P is assumed to do fewer than 3 hours’ work in the UK on the day on which it ends.

(4)Those assumptions apply regardless of how late in the day the trip begins or ends (even if it begins or ends just before midnight).

(5)For the purposes of sub-paragraph (3)(a), it does not matter whether the trip ends on that same day.

(6)A day that falls within both paragraph (a) and paragraph (b) of sub-paragraph (3) is to be treated as if it fell only within paragraph (a).

(7)In the case of a cross-border trip to or from the UK that is undertaken in stages—

(a)the day on which the trip begins or, as the case may be, ends is the day on which the stage of the trip that involves crossing the UK border begins or ends, and

(b)accordingly, any day on which a stage is undertaken by P solely within the UK must (if it lasts for more than 3 hours) be counted separately as a day on which P does more than 3 hours’ work in the UK.

90-day tie

37P has a 90-day tie for year X if P has spent more than 90 days in the UK in—

(a)the tax year preceding year X,

(b)the tax year preceding that tax year, or

(c)each of those tax years separately.

Country tie

(2)If—

(a)P meets the midnight test for the same number of days in year X in two or more countries, and

(b)that number is the greatest number of days for which P meets the midnight test in any country in year X,

P has a country tie for year X if one of those countries is the UK.

(3)P meets the “midnight test” in a country for a day if P is present in that country at the end of that day.

PART 3Split year treatment

Introduction

39This Part of this Schedule—

(a)explains when, as respects an individual, a tax year is a split year,

(b)defines the overseas part and the UK part of a split year, and

(c)amends certain enactments to provide for special charging rules in cases involving split years.

40(1)The effect of a tax year being a split year is to relax the effect of paragraph 2(3) (which treats individuals who are UK resident “for” a tax year as being UK resident at all times in that year).

(2)When and how the effect of paragraph 2(3) is relaxed is defined in the special charging rules introduced by the amendments made by this Part.

(3)Subject to those special charging rules (and any other special charging rules for split years that may be introduced in the future), nothing in this Part alters an individual’s residence status for a tax year or affects his or her liability to tax.

41This Part—

(a)does not apply in determining the residence status of personal representatives, and

(b)applies to only a limited extent in determining the residence status of the trustees of a settlement (see section 475 of ITA 2007 and section 69 of TCGA 1992, as amended by this Part).

42The existence of special charging rules for cases involving split years is not intended to affect any question as to whether an individual would fall to be regarded under double taxation arrangements as a resident of the UK.

Definition of a “split year”

43(1)As respects an individual, a tax year is a “split year” if—

(a)the individual is resident in the UK for that year, and

(b)the circumstances of the case fall within—

(i)Case 1, Case 2 or Case 3 (cases involving actual or deemed departure from the UK), or

(ii)Case 4, Case 5, Case 6, Case 7 or Case 8 (cases involving actual or deemed arrival in the UK).

(2)The 8 Cases are described in paragraphs 44 to 51.

(3)In those paragraphs, the individual is referred to as “the taxpayer” and the tax year as “the relevant year”.

(4)In applying Part 2 of this Schedule to those paragraphs, for “P” read “the taxpayer”.

Case 1: starting full-time work overseas

44(1)The circumstances of a case fall within Case 1 if they are as described in sub-paragraphs (2) to (4).

(2)The taxpayer was resident in the UK for the previous tax year (whether or not it was a split year).

(3)There is at least one period (consisting of one or more days) that—

(a)begins with a day that—

(i)falls within the relevant year, and

(ii)is a day on which the taxpayer does more than 3 hours’ work overseas,

(b)ends with the last day of the relevant year, and

(c)satisfies the overseas work criteria.

(4)The taxpayer is not resident in the UK for the next tax year because the taxpayer meets the third automatic overseas test for that year (see paragraph 14).

(5)A period “satisfies the overseas work criteria” if—

(a)the taxpayer works sufficient hours overseas, as assessed over that period,

(b)during that period, there are no significant breaks from overseas work,

(c)the number of days in that period on which the taxpayer does more than 3 hours’ work in the UK does not exceed the permitted limit, and

(d)the number of days in that period falling within sub-paragraph (6) does not exceed the permitted limit.

(6)A day falls within this sub-paragraph if—

(a)it is a day spent by the taxpayer in the UK, but

(b)it is not a day that is treated under paragraph 23(4) as a day spent by the taxpayer in the UK.

(7)To work out whether the taxpayer works “sufficient hours overseas” as assessed over a given period, apply paragraph 14(3) but with the following modifications—

(a)for “P” read “the taxpayer”,

(b)for “year X” read “the period under consideration”,

(c)for “365 (or 366 if year X includes 29 February)” read “the number of days in the period under consideration”, and

(d)in paragraph 28(9)(b), as it applies for the purposes of step 3, for “30” read “the permitted limit”.

(8)The permitted limit is—

(a)for sub-paragraphs (5)(c) and (7)(d), the number found by reducing 30 by the appropriate number, and

(b)for sub-paragraph (5)(d), the number found by reducing 90 by the appropriate number.

(9)The appropriate number is the result of—

where—

  • “A” is—

    (a)

    30, for sub-paragraphs (5)(c) and (7)(d), or

    (b)

    90, for sub-paragraph (5)(d), and

  • “B” is the number of whole months in the part of the relevant year before the day mentioned in sub-paragraph (3)(a).

(a)the relevant year, or

(b)the previous tax year.

(5)In the part of the relevant year beginning with the deemed departure day—

(a)the taxpayer has no home in the UK at any time, or has homes in both the UK and overseas but spends the greater part of the time living in the overseas home, and

(b)the number of days that the taxpayer spends in the UK does not exceed the permitted limit.

(6)The taxpayer is not resident in the UK for the next tax year.

(7)If sub-paragraph (3)(a) applies, the “deemed departure day” is the later of—

(a)the day mentioned in sub-paragraph (4), and

(b)the first day of what is, for the partner, the overseas part of the relevant year as defined for Case 1 (see paragraph 53).

(8)If sub-paragraph (3)(b) applies, the “deemed departure day” is the day mentioned in sub-paragraph (4).

(9)The permitted limit is the number found by reducing 90 by the appropriate number.

(10)The appropriate number is the result of—

where—

  • “A” is 90, and

  • “B” is the number of whole months in the part of the relevant year before the deemed departure day.

Case 3: ceasing to have a home in the UK

46(1)The circumstances of a case fall within Case 3 if they are as described in sub-paragraphs (2) to (6).

(6)At the end of the period of 6 months beginning with the day mentioned in sub-paragraph (3)(a), the taxpayer has a sufficient link with a country overseas.

(7)The taxpayer has a “sufficient link” with a country overseas if and only if—

(a)the taxpayer is considered for tax purposes to be a resident of that country in accordance with its domestic laws, or

(b)the taxpayer has been present in that country (in person) at the end of each day of the 6-month period mentioned in sub-paragraph (6), or

(c)the taxpayer’s only home is in that country or, if the taxpayer has more than one home, they are all in that country.

Case 4: starting to have a home in the UK only

47(1)The circumstances of a case fall within Case 4 if they are as described in sub-paragraphs (2) to (4).

(2)The taxpayer was not resident in the UK for the previous tax year.

(3)At the start of the relevant year, the taxpayer did not meet the only home test, but there comes a day in the relevant year when that ceases to be the case and the taxpayer then continues to meet the only home test for the rest of that year.

(4)For the part of the relevant year before that day, the taxpayer does not have sufficient UK ties.

(5)The “only home test” is met if—

(a)the taxpayer has only one home and that home is in the UK, or

(b)the taxpayer has more than one home and all of them are in the UK.

(6)Paragraphs 17 to 20 (and Part 2 of this Schedule so far as it relates to those paragraphs) apply for the purposes of sub-paragraph (4) with the following adjustments—

(b)each number of days mentioned in the first column of the Table in paragraphs 18 and 19 is to be reduced by the appropriate number.

(7)The appropriate number is found by multiplying the number of days, in each case, by—

where “A” is the number of whole months in the part of the relevant year beginning with the day mentioned in sub-paragraph (3).

(8)Sub-paragraph (6)(a) does not apply to the references to year X in paragraphs 32(1)(b) and 33 of this Schedule (which relate to the residence status of family members) so those references must continue to be read as references to year X.

Case 5: starting full-time work in the UK

(2)The taxpayer was not resident in the UK for the previous tax year.

(b)each number of days mentioned in the first column of the Table in paragraphs 18 and 19 is to be reduced by the appropriate number.

(6)The appropriate number is found by multiplying the number of days, in each case, by—

where “A” is the number of whole months in the part of the relevant year beginning with the day on which the 365-day period in question begins.

(7)Sub-paragraph (5)(a) does not apply to the references to year X in paragraphs 32(1)(b) and 33 of this Schedule (which relate to the residence status of family members) so those references must continue to be read as references to year X.

49(1)The circumstances of a case fall within Case 6 if they are as described in sub-paragraphs (2) to (4).

(2)The taxpayer—

  • Case 1 (starting full-time work overseas);

  • Case 2 (the partner of someone starting full-time work overseas);

  • Case 3 (ceasing to have a home in the UK).

(2)Case 1 has priority over Case 2 and Case 3.

(3)Case 2 has priority over Case 3.

Priority between Cases 4 to 8

55(1)This paragraph applies to determine which Case has priority where the taxpayer’s circumstances for the relevant year fall within two or more of the following—

(b)otherwise, Case 7 has priority

(5)If two or all of Cases 4, 5 and 8 apply (but neither Case 6 nor Case 7), the Case which has priority is the one with the earliest split year date.

(6)But if, in a case to which sub-paragraph (5) applies, two or all of the Cases which apply share the same split year date and that date is the only, or earlier, split year date of the Cases which apply, the Cases with that split year date are to be treated as having priority.

(b)any reference to the UK part or the overseas part of such a year were to the part corresponding as far as possible, in accordance with the terms of the relevant ESC, to the UK part or the overseas part of a split year.

(3)Where the provision also refers to cases involving actual or deemed departure from the UK, the reference is to be read and given effect so far as possible in accordance with the terms of the relevant ESC.

(4)“The relevant ESC” means whichever of the extra-statutory concessions to which effect is given by Part 3 of this Schedule is relevant in the individual’s case.

156(1)Sub-paragraph (2) applies in determining whether the test in paragraph 50(3) is met where the relevant year is the tax year 2013-14.

(2)The circumstances of a partner of the taxpayer are to be treated as falling within Case 6 for the previous tax year if the partner was eligible for split year treatment in relation to that tax year under the relevant ESC on the grounds that he or she returned to the United Kingdom after a period working overseas full-time.

(3)Where the circumstances of a partner are treated as falling within Case 6 under sub-paragraph (2), the reference in paragraph 50(7)(b) to the UK part of the relevant year as defined for Case 6 is a reference to the part corresponding, so far as possible, in accordance with the terms of the relevant ESC, to the UK part of that year.

(4)“The relevant ESC” means whichever of the extra-statutory concessions to which effect is given by Part 3 of this Schedule is relevant in the partner’s case.

157(1)This paragraph applies in determining whether the test in paragraph 110(1)(c) is met in relation to a tax year before the tax year 2013-14 (a “pre-commencement tax year”).

(2)Paragraph 110(1) is to have effect as if for paragraph (c) there were substituted—

(c)at least 4 out of the 7 tax years immediately preceding the year of departure was a tax year meeting the following conditions—

(i)the individual was resident in the UK for that year, and

(ii)there was no time in that year when the individual was Treaty non-resident (see paragraph 112(3)).

(3)Whether an individual was resident in the UK for a pre-commencement tax year is to be determined in accordance with the rules in force for determining an individual’s residence for that pre-commencement tax year (and not in accordance with the statutory residence test).

158(1)The existing temporary non-resident provisions, as in force immediately before the day on which this Act is passed, continue to have effect on and after that day in any case where the year of departure (as defined in Part 4 of this Schedule) is a tax year before the tax year 2013-14.

(2)Where those provisions continue to have effect by virtue of sub-paragraph (1)—

(a)the question of whether a person is or is not resident in the UK for the tax year 2013-14 or a subsequent tax year is to be determined for the purposes of those provisions in accordance with Part 1 of this Schedule, but

(b)the effect of Part 3 is to be ignored.

(3)The existing temporary non-resident provisions are—

(a)section 10A of TCGA 1992 (chargeable gains),

(b)section 576A of ITEPA 2003 (income withdrawals under certain foreign pensions),

(c)section 579CA of that Act (income withdrawals under registered pension schemes), and

(d)section 832A of ITTOIA (relevant foreign income charged on remittance basis).

159Section 13 of FA 2012 (Champions League final 2013) is to be read and given effect, on and after the day on which this Act is passed, as if section 218 and this Schedule had not been enacted.
