Should I hold rental property personally or through a limited company?

The right structure depends on rental income, future plans, mortgage interest, and tax rates. We provide tailored advice for landlords.

What expenses can landlords claim?

Allowable expenses include repairs, letting agent fees, insurance, and certain finance costs, subject to current tax rules.

Who is considered an NRI for UK tax purposes?

For UK tax, residency is determined by the UK Statutory Residence Test. An individual may be treated as an NRI for Indian tax purposes while still becoming UK tax resident depending on days spent and UK ties.

Do I need to report Indian income on my UK tax return?

If you are UK tax resident, you are generally required to disclose worldwide income, including Indian salary, rental income, interest, dividends, capital gains, and certain retirement income.

Will I be taxed twice on the same income in India and the UK?

Usually not. The UK–India Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement allows relief through Foreign Tax Credit Relief, subject to conditions and proper reporting.

How are Indian rental income and property sales taxed in the UK?

Indian rental income and capital gains may be taxable in the UK if you are UK tax resident. Taxes paid in India may be creditable against UK tax, subject to treaty rules.

Do I need to declare Indian bank accounts, investments, or PF balances in the UK?

Yes. UK tax residents must disclose overseas income and gains arising from foreign bank accounts, investments, and certain retirement funds, even if funds are not remitted to the UK.

Can you help with UK–India tax planning before or after moving to the UK?

Yes. We provide pre-arrival and post-arrival tax planning, including residency analysis, remittance basis advice (where applicable), account structuring, and compliance support.
