2024 Autumn Budget: how expats may be affected

On October 30th 2024, the UK Government announced the UK Budget and key tax changes for the year(s) ahead. Despite the doom and gloom headlines preceding the budget announcement, the UK remains a fairly tax-efficient place to be for expats.

In this section we explore the headlines and impacts for expats from the 2024 UK budget.

Watch our Autumn Budget webinar in full

Pre-budget, there was a lot of speculation around some highly controversial tax changes, and over 70% of expats we asked we extremely nervous about what was going to be announced.

After the budget was announced, and with time to reflect, we brought together a panel of trusted experts from our partnership network to discuss the major (and minor) changes announced in the budget.

We also fielded a range of questions from expats that were put to our panel to ensure we answered the most important questions expats faced.

You can either watch the webinar in full (which was just over an hour long) or read the various summaries below, depending on which content is most relevant to you and your circumstances.

If you need further assistance understanding how the budget might affect you, request an introduction to a specialist using our free introduction service and we will ask one of our partners to arrange an initial discovery call to discuss your situation:

UK Tax Matters introduction in United Kingdom

I appreciated the whole Introductory process. It was fast, efficient (lots of feedback) and professional. My query was answered by the recommended company within the 15 minute time frame. I have kept the accountant's name and contact details on record for future reference. This was a great way to locate a professional from a long way away. I am sure I will use the company again in the future.

Gail B.

UK Capital Gains Tax introduction in South Africa

Very pleased with the introduction, whom I have now retained. I interviewed several prospects and they came out on top due to the crisp, concise answers they provide and the reasonableness of their fees.

Sylvia B.

Remittance Advice introduction in United States

It’s good... a good experience - I got just what I was looking for and needed/wanted

Richard T.

UK Tax Matters introduction in United Arab Emirates

I was extremely dubious and cautious going into this process. I have two pension pots in the UK that l have been trying to consolidate and rebalance for over a year with nothing but stalling and red tape from the two companies in the UK.

In desperation l followed up a lead from Google. I am glad l did. I will now be able to manage MY money from the US with an engaged and informative partner, instead of dealing with people who have zero interest in growing my accounts.

It’s a big relief and l look forward to developing this relationship wrt the rest of my retirement planning as part of my portfolio. Thanks so much for your help and referral. This is a legitimate organization with the expertise and support expats need.
