I will be working for up to five days in Australia as a crown servant of HMG and my international remote working application has asked that I seek tax advice and any implications with regards to the obligation on HMG for tax liability. I will be only checking emails and not doing extensive work which falls under as admissible under the subclass 600. The guidance states: However, this is only provided that their main purpose of stay is tourism or a business visit. If your main activity is tourism and you do a small amount of work, such as logging in to check your work emails, this is generally not considered to be a 'work' activity. Many thanks if you are able to provide further advice.

Hi Ekathleen Kathleen,
There would be no tax implications as you would still be classed as UK tax resident and as such there is no change to working conditions/tax code.
Thank you.
