Would you like to clarify your tax status?

Barclays Wealth can help you

As someone who comes from overseas to work and live in the UK, your needs will be different from ordinary UK residents. You may need to send money overseas (i.e. back home) and your 'base' currency may not be sterling.

You are also likely to have day-to-day banking needs in the UK, such as paying bills and withdrawing cash. It is also likely that you may be a 'resident non-domiciled' for UK tax purposes. This status may open up certain financial planning needs that we can help you with.

At Barclays Wealth we are uniquely placed to help you:

  • Make the most of your financial position as a resident non-domiciled person
  • Work out how the new tax legislation might affect you
  • Organise your finances to help protect them from market volatility
