Many thanks for the above info. A few questions: 1. I am unsure what the above bit "If you return to the UK and undertake work for this employer while in the UK, that proportion of your earnings will be taxable in the UK. You will also need to review the guidance on tax residency and take the residency tests." means with regards to the proportion of my earnings will be taxed in UK. Is the residency tests not binary? Meaning one is either a resident in the UK or in South Africa in a given tax year? I cannot see anything on proportionality in the rules. Can you perhaps explain this to me a bit more? Many thanks 2. Does HMRC offer a video meeting service perhaps where one can book a meeting with a HMRC consultant to discuss one's situation and get verbal advice? One these issues discussed in my post? Many thanks indeed.

Dear HMRC, I have a UK-based PAYE job and pay my usual PAYE tax on is this income. I am living in the UK. I also had a second job through which I provide a self-employed service online to a different company and get paid commission in EUROS (which I receive via Wise and immediately convert to Sterling). Can I claim the £1000 trading allowance on this foreign income received (on the Sterling amount) via my second job? I do a self assessment tax return every year where I declare all my sterling income received from both jobs. Just keen to know if I can deduct the trading allowance from my self employed second job sterling earnings. Many thanks

Many thanks for this information. Under this working scenario, would it be possible to continue to contribute to NI to continue to build by UK state pension?

I have dual citizenship form the UK and South Africa (SA). I am currently employed by a UK employer for the last 4.5 years and residing in the UK. I am registered with HMRC, fully compliant and paying UK tax, contributing to UK pensions (employer and SIPP) and make NI contributions like all UK employees. I am exploring the option to potentiually move back to SA (for family reasons) and to continue to work remotely for my UK employer and make return visits to the UK about 2-3 times a year for about 2-3 weeks at a time. I am aware there is a double tax agreement (DTA) between the UK and SA, but I am unsure what the tax implications are for living in SA for more than 183 days a year whilst working for my UK employer. I am really keen to pay UK taxes and NI and therefore continue with my UK pension building process (incl state pension) whilst living in SA, but I am unsure if this is possible and how much tax liability will I have in SA under the DTA. I earn about £96000 pa after my workplace pension contributions are deducted. I recognise every case is unique, but was just starting to do some research on this idea and noted this forum. Many thanks.
