★ As an individual, there are 2 key statuses you have:

☆ No 1 is your citizenship of a particular country. So for example here in the UK, if you hold a British passport or are eligible for one, you would be a British citizen. And as a citizen, you have certain rights, like the right to vote.

☆ No 2 is your tax residency. This is when you are resident in the UK for tax purposes, and pay UK taxes, in this video we will cover namely income and dividend tax on your earnings.

Now, being a British citizen and being UK tax residency is the most common scenario for most of you. However, you can be a British citizen and non-UK tax residency. Or you can be a non-British citizen and UK tax residency. The two are mutually exclusive.

By being a UK tax resident, you are liable to pay UK income tax and dividend tax on your worldwide earnings, whether through employment, self-employment or dividends received from a company.
But the question is, how is your tax residency determined? Before we go on, meet Sunny, who is a Limited company business owner, and he likes to travel around a bit.
