Overseas Residence: Taxation

Asked by Dame Harriett BaldwinConservativeTreasuryTabled Answered 9 December 2025UIN 95046

The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, further to Question 93370, if she will commission from HMRC an analysis of the tax contribution of the British nationals the ONS estimates have left the UK since July 2024.

Answered by Dan Tomlinson

HMRC does not hold data on all income sources of all individuals that have left the UK, and incomes of individuals vary each year. Individuals who have chosen to leave the UK may still be liable to pay tax in the UK.

HMRC published analysis on Income Tax Liabilities and Statistics annually. Income Tax statistics and distributions - GOV.UK
