Moving to the UK? The planning happens before you land.
The months before you become UK-resident are when the most valuable planning is possible — including making the most of the 4-year FIG regime for new arrivals. Once you've landed, the options narrow.
The best moves close the day you arrive
UK residence changes how your worldwide income and gains are taxed. New arrivals may be able to use the Foreign Income and Gains regime for a limited window, and the timing of income, disposals and how your funds are organised beforehand can make a lasting difference. Left until after the move, much of that is off the table.

The things clients ask first
What is the 4-year FIG regime?
It's a relief for people who become UK-resident after a period abroad, covering certain foreign income and gains for a limited window. Whether and how it helps depends on your facts, which we assess before advising.
I've already moved — is it too late?
Some planning is still possible, but the highest-value moves happen before arrival. The sooner we talk, the more room there is.
Does this affect my US filing?
It can, which is why we plan both sides together rather than optimise one and disrupt the other.
Let's plan the move before it's made.
A free consultation, no obligation. Tell us when you're arriving and how things sit today, and we'll map the pre-arrival window — with a fixed price before any work begins.
