Hello, I am currently resident in France after relocating last year for work. My employer is French, and I pay tax on my income from my employment in France. I am saving a small amount of this income, and want to know whether I will be taxed again on these savings when I return to the UK (and transfer them to a UK bank account), or whether the dual tax agreement with France means that I won't pay tax twice. Thanks for your help.

Hi Josephine M,
You will not be taxed on the transfer of the capital but any interest or dividends that it then generates is taxable income.
Thank you.

Hi,
You can request a state pension forecast from the Department for work and Pensions - Check your State Pension forecast
Once you receive your forecast, if you decide that you want to pay voluntary National Insurance contributions whilst you are abroad, you can
find further information about doing this here - Social Security abroad: NI38
Thank you.
