As the UK Government prepares to open the Hong Kong British National (Overseas) Visa for applications from January 2021, many people in Hong Kong may be thinking about moving to the UK to work or study. To help them understand the UK tax system’s complexities, and how COVID-related taxation changes may affect their wealth in 2021, BKL private client tax specialist Geraint Jones was interviewed for Hong Kong’s Next Magazine.
Topics discussed by Geraint included capital gains tax, income tax, property taxes and tax differences between England and Scotland.
