Can I open an ISA account for year 2023/24 having come to the UK in January 2024 and applying for split year?

Is the answer "No" because it is not a full year's residence? I thought that as long as you are a UK resident you could open a cash ISA

Hi,

You must be resident in the UK before you can open an ISA. You can see guidance here:

Individual Savings Accounts (ISAs)

RDR3: Statutory Residence Test (SRT) notes

Thank you.
