(1)This section applies for calculating how much of an employee’s general earnings for a tax year are “chargeable overseas earnings” for the purposes of [F48section] 22.
[F49(1A)But none of an employee's general earnings from an employment for a tax year are to be “chargeable overseas earnings” if section 24A applies in relation to the employment for the tax year.]
(2)General earnings for a tax year are “overseas earnings” for that year if—
[F50(a)section 809B, 809D or 809E of ITA 2007 (remittance basis) applies to the employee for that year,
[F51(aa)the employee does not meet the requirement of section 26A for that year,]]
(b)the employment is with a foreign employer, and
(c)the duties of the employment are performed wholly outside the United Kingdom.
(3)To calculate the amount of “chargeable overseas earnings” for a tax year—
[F52Step 1
Identify—
(a)in the case of a tax year that is not a split year, the full amount of the overseas earnings for that year, and
(b)in the case of a split year, so much of the full amount of the overseas earnings for that year as is attributable to the UK part of the year.]
Step 2
Subtract any amounts that would (assuming they were taxable earnings) be allowed to be deducted from [F53the earnings identified under step 1] under—
(a)section 232 or Part 5 (deductions allowed from earnings),
[F54(b) sections 188 to 194 of FA 2004 (contributions to registered pension schemes), or]
(d)section 262 of CAA 2001 (capital allowances to be given effect by treating them as deductions from earnings).
Step 3
Apply any limit imposed by section 24 (limit where duties of associated employment performed in UK).
The result is the chargeable overseas earnings for the tax year.
[F55(4)Any attribution required for the purposes of step 1 or step 2 in subsection (3) is to be done on a just and reasonable basis.]

F103Words in s. 52(2) substituted (5.12.2005) by The Tax and Civil Partnership Regulations 2005 (S.I. 2005/3229), regs. 1(1), 138
Where the intermediary is an individual the conditions are that the payment or benefit—
(a)is received or receivable by the worker directly from the intermediary, and
(b)can reasonably be taken to represent remuneration for services provided by the worker to the client.
(1)The amount of the deemed employment payment for a tax year (“the year”) is the amount resulting from the following steps—
Step 1
Find (applying section 55) the total amount of all payments and benefits received by the intermediary in the year in respect of the relevant engagements, and reduce that amount by 5%.
Step 2
Add (applying that section) the amount of any payments and benefits received by the worker in the year in respect of the relevant engagements, otherwise than from the intermediary, that—
(a)are not chargeable to income tax as employment income, and
(b)would be so chargeable if the worker were employed by the client.
Step 3
Deduct (applying Chapters 1 to 5 of Part 5) the amount of any expenses met in the year by the intermediary that would have been deductible from the taxable earnings from the employment if—
(a)the worker had been employed by the client, and
(b)the expenses had been met by the worker out of those earnings.
If the result at this or any later point is nil or a negative amount, there is no deemed employment payment.
Step 4
Deduct the amount of any capital allowances in respect of expenditure incurred by the intermediary that could have been deducted from employment income under section 262 of CAA 2001 (employments and offices) if the worker had been employed by the client and had incurred the expenditure.
Step 5
Deduct any contributions made in the year for the benefit of the worker by the intermediary to a [F104registered pension scheme] that if made by an employer for the benefit of an employee would not be chargeable to income tax as income of the employee.
This does not apply to excess contributions made and later repaid.
Step 6
Deduct the amount of any employer’s national insurance contributions paid by the intermediary for the year in respect of the worker.
Step 7
Deduct the amount of any payments and benefits received in the year by the worker from the intermediary—
(a)in respect of which the worker is chargeable to income tax as employment income, and
(b)which do not represent items in respect of which a deduction was made under step 3.
Step 8
Assume that the result of step 7 represents an amount together with employer’s national insurance contributions on it, and deduct what (on that assumption) would be the amount of those contributions.
The result is the deemed employment payment.
[F105(1A)For the purposes of step 1 of subsection (1), any payment or benefit which is employment income of the worker by virtue of section 863G(4) of ITTOIA 2005 (salaried members of limited liability partnerships: anti-avoidance) is to be ignored.]

Testun a grëwyd gan yr adran o’r llywodraeth oedd yn gyfrifol am destun y Ddeddf i esbonio beth mae’r Ddeddf yn ceisio ei wneud ac i wneud y Ddeddf yn hygyrch i ddarllenwyr nad oes ganddynt gymhwyster cyfreithiol. Cyflwynwyd Nodiadau Esboniadol ym 1999 ac maent yn cyd-fynd â phob Deddf Gyhoeddus ac eithrio Deddfau Adfeddiannu, Cronfa Gyfunol, Cyllid a Chyfnerthiad.
