The ten-year tax charge that HMRC levy on almost all trusts can be a minefield for many businesses involved in the offshore trust/fiduciary world. It places responsibilities on businesses which, if not dealt with properly, can be problematic for trustees and clients alike.
In this workshop, Bernard will guide you through the rules and how they apply. Some of those applications may come as a surprise to some. The workshop will be knowledge enhancing, but also practical, with in-class exercises and interactivity, including completion of a Return itself.

The question of offshore structures holding UK situs property is one that directors and trustees in international finance centres contend with on an ongoing basis; it is one which should be reviewed regularly. This question may be focused on queries from clients (usually non-UK) wanting to invest in UK property via offshore structures, or indeed, in respect of existing structures and whether the structure is still required.
This workshop will look at the holding of UK property during a timeline of pre-purchase, ownership, and disposal. It will look at the various taxes that apply generally, and how they apply at each stage of the ownership cycle. It will be interactive and utilise practical exercises to emphasise the areas covered. It will not make participants tax experts, but will highlight what needs to be considered by them to avoid pitfalls and assumptions on treatment.
Workshop Overview
- The Taxes that apply
- The definitions of those taxes to ensure clear application throughout the cycle
- Buying the Property and Considerations
- Is the structure right for the client?
- Existing client owned property
- Traditional Structure v Property Partnerships – an overview
- Existing client owned property and considerations
- Lifetime thresholds and the care required
- Supplementary charges
- Non-Primary residences

British ex-Pats, who are considering returning to live in the UK, may have accumulated levels of wealth which, anecdotally, they understand they should protect by wrapping the wealth in an offshore structure as a matter of course. Is this really the case? It may not be, based on the individual’s personal circumstances. So what are the criteria that should be brought in to play, when deciding how best to optimise their position from the moment they arrive in the UK?
This half day workshop will take Corporate Service Providers and Trust Fiduciaries through the issues that need to be considered when they are interacting with clients in order to arrive at the most appropriate answer for the client. It will be interactive and use practical exercises and case study to consolidate the learning process.
Workshop Overview
The danger of advice from the ‘man in the pub’!
Returning to the UK
- When are they proposing to return (and why this matters)?

- Deemed Domicile and its impact?

- The type of asset and why this is important?
- How long have they been held? Are any of the assets UK situs?
- Could/Should assets: Be Sold? Be Held? Be Gifted?
