I migrated from Hong Kong to UK in Aug 2023 and become the tax resident in UK since then. I applied the split year treatment for the income earned in Hong Kong during the period from April to Aug 2023(i.e. before coming to UK). Then, during the period between Nov 2023 and March 2024, I have went back to Hong Kong for 50 days to work locally in Hong Kong as an employee of a Hong Kong local company which has no relationship with UK and under a 12 month employment contract. During the financial tax year, I did not stay in Hong Kong for more than 180 days. Instead, I did stay in UK for more than 180days. I have paid the salary tax to Hong Kong for the above financial year. I am going to report this overseas salary to HMRC in my self assessment. According to the DTA between UK and Hong Kong, may I know if the above mentioned Hong Kong salary during the period between Nov 2023 and Feb 2024 shall be taxable only in Hong Kong or taxable in both UK and Hong Kong? Up to now, I still have not yet got any job in UK after migration . Looking forward to your reply and advice. Many thanks for your kind help.
