I am a serving member of the RAF and I am posted overseas for 2 years to RAF Akrotiri Sovereign Base Area Cyprus. I complete an annual self assessment and have changed my address on my HMRC profile reflecting my service accommodation address at Akrotiri. On completion it stated that a P85 or SA109 should be completed when leaving the UK. I already understand that as I am an armed forces ‘crown servant’ serving overseas that I still pay UK taxes as I would in the UK, can you therefore confirm therefore there is no requirement to complete the P85 or SA109?

Hi ,
 
You are still classed as being on UK soil as a crown servant so the P85 and SA109 are not applicable  .

Thank you .
