UK Chancellor George Osborne will give the UK Budget on the 23rd March 2011. There are many rumours the new Remittance Basis Charge of GBP 30,000 – paid by only approx 5,400 in the first year it operated in 2008/09 - applied to resident non UK domiciled individuals  will be changed to apply from year 1 of UK tax residence , rather than year 8.  Amongst other things, this may be one way to raise UK tax revenues!

This Breakfast Briefing will cover the main UK Budget /tax news, focusing on how it affects businesses and residents in Hong Kong and the region.  It will also include a post-budget analysis of feedback from UK professional bodies and the media.
