BUZZ ACCOUNTINGYou left the UK. Your tax didn’t.
Non-resident returns, the house you rent out, the company you still run, the 60-day rule when you sell — a licensed UK practice built for people who live somewhere else. No jargon. No fluff.
Returns from £299 · landlord returns £349 · the 60-day return £449. Every price published — which is more than any of our competitors will tell you.
UK tax, handled from wherever you are.
The house you kept, the company you still run, the year you left and the pension quietly not building all still answer to HMRC. Handling them from abroad is easier with a UK firm that works the way you now live — remotely, over WhatsApp, across timezones — and that files with software able to submit the non-resident pages.
You kept the house and rent it out
We register you for gross rent, reclaim the tax your agent has already withheld, and file the annual return with the residence pages.
You still have UK income of any kind
Rent, dividends, pensions, director's fees and final-year salary in one return — including the SA109 pages HMRC's own website will not file.
You are selling, or just sold, UK property
The computation, the best rebasing option, the 60-day return and the payment reference — filed inside the window, penalties avoided.
You are going in the next year — or just went
Split-year treatment, your P85, your day budget in writing, and what to do about the ISA, the pension and the house before you go.
You are arriving, or coming home after 10+ years
Your start-of-residence date, the four-year FIG window claimed properly year by year, and both tax systems lined up from day one.
Running a UK company from abroad
2% of turnoverYou run your UK Ltd from somewhere else
Accounts, corporation tax, VAT and payroll — plus keeping the company's own tax residence in the UK rather than following you abroad.
Voluntary National Insurance from abroad
We pull your NI record, work out whether you qualify for Class 2 at £3.50 a week rather than Class 3, file the CF83 and cover back years. Most working expats qualify for the cheap class and never find out.
Your country changes the answer.
The UK side is only half the story — what your new country taxes, credits and freezes decides the rest.
We handle everything HMRC still wants from you
One practice, one WhatsApp thread, every deadline diarised — instead of a return here, an NRL form there and a 60-day panic when you sell.
- Self Assessment with the residence pages, filed on time
- NRL registration so 20% stops coming off your rent
- The 60-day return the moment you sell
- Split-year and treaty claims in your leaving year
- Your UK company: accounts, CT, VAT, payroll
- State Pension kept building at £3.50 a week
Your letting agent is already deducting 20%.
If your usual home is abroad, the Non-resident Landlord Scheme makes your agent take basic-rate tax off your rent before you see it — unless HMRC approves you for gross payment. Most people find out from their first light statement, not from a letter.
How it works
- 1
Tell us your picture
Where you live, what you kept in the UK — property, company, pension, the year you left. WhatsApp, email or a call across timezones.
- 2
Fixed quote, plain English
You'll know the price before we start. No hourly billing, no surprises, no jargon.
- 3
We deal with HMRC from there on
Returns filed with the residence pages HMRC's own website can't handle, every deadline diarised for you, and any refund chased until it lands.
Most UK firms will not touch a non-resident return. We file them every week, for a fee you agree before we start.

Leaving the UK: the ten tax jobs worth doing early
Each one costs almost nothing done in the right month and four figures done in the wrong tax year. Three pages, in the order the deadlines actually arrive — day budget, split year, the P85, the NRL1, the April 2015 valuation, the ISA, your National Insurance and the two dates to diarise.
The download opens on the next page — no waiting for an email, no sequence, no sales calls.
This brand is new. The practice behind it is not.

Guides to the rules that catch expats out
The Statutory Residence Test, explained properly
Whether the UK taxes your worldwide income comes down to a mechanical test of days, ties and work.
Selling UK property from abroad: the 60-day rule
Every non-resident who sells UK land or property must file a return within 60 days of completion — profit or loss, tax or no tax.
Voluntary National Insurance from abroad: £3.50 a week for a bigger State Pension
For £3.50 a week, most working expats can keep their UK State Pension growing while they're away.
The questions every new expat asks first
Do I even need to file UK returns any more?
If you have UK income — rent, dividends, some pensions — almost certainly yes. And the return is harder than the one you used to file, because it now carries the residence pages. If your only UK income is bank interest and you've properly left, sometimes no — that check is part of any first conversation, free.
How do you work with clients 7 time zones away?
The same way we work with clients in Manchester: WhatsApp, email, a portal for documents, calls booked when they suit you. We were a remote-first practice before you emigrated; nothing about our process assumes a meeting room.
Can you talk to my accountant in Dubai / Sydney / Toronto?
Yes, and we prefer it. The UK computation feeds their foreign-tax-credit claim; when the two sides talk, nothing gets taxed twice and nothing falls in the gap.
What does it cost to ask?
Nothing. Tell us the picture and you get a fixed quote in writing, usually the same working day. No obligation, no follow-up sequence.
