Wealth: Taxation

Asked by Andrew GriffithConservativeTreasuryTabled Answered 17 July 2025UIN 67521

The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, pursuant to the Answer of 10 July 2024 to Question 65661 on Wealth: Taxation, whether this will include an exit tax payable upon persons ending their UK tax residency.

Answered by James Murray

HMRC publishes estimates of the direct impacts of illustrative tax changes in its Direct effects of illustrative tax changes publication. The Government does not routinely publish costings for hypothetical tax changes outside of this.

The Government is committed to ensuring that the wealthiest in society pay their fair share of tax. The reforms announced at Autumn Budget 2024 were designed to help repair the public finances in a fair and balanced way.
