Tax resident in Cyprus

Might be an idea to speak to a local tax professional to be sure you get the best way to deal with it without. As knowing numbers it's difficult to assess as everyone is different depending on numbers and personal circumstances

If it's simple then maybe it's just a case of registering fir tax here and then doing the DTT forms but as I said best to take professional advice to make sure you are legally  minimising taxes as best you can

I completed a P85 on HMRC web site when I left 18months ago. They sent me new tax code of NTX. Then when I got my state pension there was no tax deducted. If you have a private pension in draw down you need to get a new NTX tax code for them and they will stop deducting tax. Any tax you have paid since exiting UK can be claimed back. Rental income in the UK is taxable in the UK However you can use your 12k allowance toitigste that. Did you get a Cyprus TIN and register on the Cyprus tax web site? Get a local tax person to submit Cyprus tax. I cannot recommend one as I have not found a quick reliable call you back one yet lol. Good luck

@lshill submit dt/individual (from HMRC) to the Cyprus Tax Office, detailing your pensions. They will send it to the UK and HMRC will instruct the pension provider to pay your pension gross. Your primary responsibility for UK rental income will remain in the UK, but you will be able to use your full UK tax allowance as the pensions will be taxable here.

How so ?

For HMRC Purposes you would only have the rent income as counting towards your UK tax liabilities.

For Cyprus Tax purposes your untaxed at source UK pension(s) will only be liable for Cyprus taxation at 5% and therefore would not count against the Cyprus tax allowance.

TBH I'm not 100% sure as to whether the (already taked in the UK) UK rental income would be liable for any additional Cyprus taxation, but while that would seem to be unreasonable, as we all know taxation and the law quite often don't seem to be based on "reason".

This is just my personal interpretation of the stated situation and the current legislation.

My understanding is the UK rental is taxed at source and personal allowance will apply.
