Hello, I am living in the UK and I have found a job from an Australian company which is completely remote working. I will be living in the UK. What do I have to do to reduce the taxes in Australia as a non-resident Australian? I talked to ATO but they say that I need to contact HMRC. Do I need to fill in any paperwork and send to Australia? Apparently I am going to pay a lot of taxes in Australia as a non-resident... I am so lost with this so any help is very much appreciate it. Thank you

Hi,

You will need to request a certificate of residence (CoR), in respect of your Australian foreign income. You will need to confirm with the Australian tax office, which of their forms you will need to complete to request that no tax is deducted from your employment income.  

The CoR will show that you are resident in the UK for tax purposes.

You will need to register for Self Assessment, if you are not already registered, so that you can declare your foreign employment income. 

Check how to register for Self Assessment

Thank you.
