    Hi,

    Can anyone please help me : I am leaving the UK, for permanently going to join and live with my boyfriend in another country.
    I have been offered to work for a UK Based company, from my new home in the new country.

    The UK based company will pay me in POUNDS, on my UK account.

    Will I have to pay taxes in UK ?
    If my GROSS salary is 100, will I get 100 on my account in UK ???

    Many thanks !!!!!

    Sophie

    If you're getting paid in pounds in the UK, then you have to pay tax in the UK. So you would get taxed on the £100 and wouldn't receive the full amount in your bank account. Depending upon where you are moving to you may have to pay some tax in the next country as well (even if you're not working there). If that's the case then call the Inland Revenue and they'll be able to advise of how to get any overpayment back at the end of each year.
