flag The UK's new 2025 FIG relief lets long-term expats exempt foreign income from tax for up to four years after returning, if they meet residency rules and claim it.

flag The UK introduced new Foreign Income and Gains (FIG) tax relief in April 2025, allowing individuals who lived abroad for at least 10 consecutive years to claim tax exemption on foreign income and gains for up to four years after returning. flag Eligibility depends on tax residency, not nationality or domicile, and relief must be claimed— it does not apply automatically. flag While beneficial for some, qualifying may result in losing other tax allowances like the Personal Allowance and Capital Gains Tax exemptions. flag Experts warn of common misunderstandings, especially regarding prior UK residency, and stress the need for professional advice to avoid unintended tax liabilities. flag Chase Buchanan Private Wealth Management offers global support to help individuals assess the full impact of these changes.
