  • Double Taxation Short Term Residency - Germany & UK

    A person who studies in Germany normally and spends more than 183 days in the year in Germany. However, the person is doing an internship at a company in the UK and is over the tax allowance. The person will have spent 92 days in the UK and, according to the "Check your UK residence status" quiz, is a resident of the UK. The student has already paid tax to the UK since it was deducted from the source. There exists a double taxation treaty between the UK and Germany, but it is still not clear whether the person should be paying tax for the UK or for Germany? Kindly clarify. Thank you!
