Tax Free?

I am considering moving to the ME on a 1 year (renewable) contract.

It is obviously tax free in the ME, is it also tax free in the UK?

Is there anything i have to do before i leave the UK in order to qualify?

check with your countries tax codes.

Overseas income is tax free but any income in UK from any source during that time is taxable. You will heve to inform HMRC about you move by filling P85 form, http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/cnr/p85.pdf
