HMRC Admin 19 Response

Hi ElectricianInOxforshire,

The 0% VAT rate only applies to the installation of energy saving materials and would not apply to the scaffolding as these are not in themselves energy saving materials and so the scaffold service would need to be invoiced at 20%.

You can see the guidance here:

Installations of energy-saving materials

Thank you.

Hi Akinlami

Sorry, we can only answer questions appropriate to HMRC on this forum.

Thank you.

Hi,

As a UK national and resident, you are liable to tax in the UK, arising on all your worldwide income and gains.

Article 17 of the UK / Australia double taxation agreements advises, that Australian pensions, including Australian government pensions paid to the resident of the UK, are taxable only in the UK. You can see information here:

UK/ Australia Double Taxation Convention

 Your Australian pension, should be declared in a Self Assessment tax return.  

You should also contact the Australian tax authorities, to find out how to claim a repayment of any tax paid in Austrlia, as the pensions are not taxable in that country. A foreign tax credit can be claimed in your Self Assessment tax return for foreign tax paid.

Thank you.

Hi bullwicked,

You can see the following guidance on residence, domicile and remittance:

Residence, domicile and the remittance basis: RDR1

You will also need to take the statutory residence tests here:

RDR3 Statutory Residence Test

Once you have determined your residence status, you will be able to determine if the money being transferred in, is taxable.

If any of the money being transferred into the UK, is income or gains, generated in the tax year in which you become resident, then this will be taxable. All other monies, not from income or gains in the current tax year is not taxable.  

You can see guidance on importing personal goods here:
