Textual Amendments
F1Pt. 14 Ch. 1A inserted (with effect in accordance with s. 52(3) of the amending Act) by Finance Act 2009 (c. 10), s. 52(1)
This Chapter provides for an exemption from liability to income tax for an individual for a tax year if—
(a)the individual is UK resident in the tax year but not domiciled in the United Kingdom in the tax year,
(b)section 809B does not apply to the individual for the tax year, and
(c)conditions A to F in section 828B are met.
(1)Condition A is that in the tax year the individual has income from an employment the duties of which are performed wholly or partly in the United Kingdom.
(2)Condition B is that, if the individual's income for the tax year consists of or includes relevant foreign earnings—
(a)the amount of the relevant foreign earnings does not exceed £10,000, and
(b)all of that amount is subject to a foreign tax.
(3)Condition C is that, if the individual's income for the tax year consists of or includes income that is relevant foreign income by virtue of section 830(2)(e) of ITTOIA 2005—
(a)the amount of that income does not exceed £100, and
(b)all of that amount is subject to a foreign tax.
(4)Condition D is that the individual has no other foreign income and gains for the tax year.
(5)Condition E is that the individual would not for the tax year be liable to income tax at a rate other than the basic rate or the starting rate for savings if this Chapter did not apply to the individual for the tax year.
(6)Condition F is that the individual does not make a return under section 8 of TMA 1970 for the tax year.
(1)The exemption is given by deducting the relevant amount from what would otherwise be the amount of the individual's liability to income tax for the tax year under section 23.
(2)“The relevant amount” is so much of the amount of the individual's liability to income tax as is attributable to the individual's foreign income or gains for the tax year.
(3)But if for the tax year the individual's total income is reduced by any deductions which fall to be made at Step 3 of the calculation in section 23 from the individual's foreign income or gains for the tax year, subsection (2) has effect as if the individual's foreign income or gains for the tax year were reduced by the amount of the deductions.
(4)And if the individual is entitled under—
(a)[F2sections 2 and 6 of TIOPA 2010] (double taxation arrangements: relief by agreement), or
(b)[F3section 18(1)(b) and (2)] of that Act (relief for foreign tax where no double taxation arrangements),
to a tax reduction in respect of the individual's foreign income or gains for the tax year, what would otherwise be the relevant amount is reduced by the amount of that reduction.
