As was widely anticipated, the Chancellor of the U.K. used his budget speech on March 6 to announce the termination of the non-domicile regime and remittance basis of taxation effective April 12, 2025. In its place, a new foreign income and gains (“F.I.G.”) regime will be available for individuals who become U.K. tax resident after a period of 10 tax years of nonresident status.  Individuals who qualify for the new regime will be able to bring F.I.G. to the U.K. free from any U.K. tax for up to four years.
