Corporate & Personal services

Many of our clients are relocating from Dubai or Abu Dhabi back to the UK, or are UAE-based professionals moving to the UK for the first time. Either way, adjusting from a tax-free income to UK tax, and finding housing in a very different market, are the two biggest hurdles.

We help you understand your UK tax position, get set up with banking, and find housing that suits your budget and commute — along with getting you mobile with a car lease if you don't yet have UK credit history.

For families, we also support the transition from UAE international schools to the UK system, which can be one of the more stressful parts of the move.

What's included

  • UK tax position guidance
  • Property search — lettings or purchase
  • UK banking introductions
  • Expat car leasing with UAE-based income
  • School transition support for families

FAQs

Common questions

Will I pay more tax moving from the UAE to the UK?

Almost certainly, as the UAE has no personal income tax. We recommend speaking to a UK tax adviser before you relocate — we can introduce you to one.

Can I get a car lease using UAE income?

Yes, our expat car leasing partners regularly work with clients whose income and credit history is based overseas, including the UAE.

How does UK healthcare compare to the UAE?

The NHS is free at the point of use for UK residents, a significant shift from UAE private healthcare — we can talk you through registering with a GP.

Do you help with school applications?

Yes, particularly for families moving mid-school-year, where places can be limited in popular areas.
